    Ep 151: Improving Practices, Diagnosis, and Treatment of ADHD Feb 28, 2024
    Show notes

    Sometimes in the world of ADHD, we parents come across a medical provider who really, really 'gets it.' This is one of those times! Dr. Aaron Dodini understands the nuances of diagnosing and treating ADHD, and has thoughts about the future of this complex condition. This conversation is a must listen for anyone with kids or adults who have ADHD in your family!Dr. Aaron Dodini is a seasoned clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience in diagnosing and treating ADHD, particularly focusing on high achieving professionals and athletes who may have been overlooked in the diagnosis process. Aaron firmly believes in a comprehensive approach to diagnosing and treating ADHD, emphasizing that there is no one-size-fits-all treatment. He advocates for a combination of medication, behavioral interventions, coaching, therapy, and creating supportive environments to address the various aspects of ADHD. His perspective is shaped by his extensive experience and his passion for empowering individuals to embrace their ADHD as a catalyst for growth and excellence.Listen to this Parenting With Impact episode with Aaron Dodini about ADHD and treatmentParenting is Leadership Parenting is a leadership opportunity. With the "Parenting is Leadership" Guide from ImpactParents, two frameworks and a dozen core competencies will guide you to up-level your parenting... and improve the most important relationships of your life. Here is what to expect on this week’s show:Aaron emphasizes the importance of working with families, systems, and communities to provide support. He believes that a proper diagnosis for adults is crucial for improving their lives and their ability to support their children. When parents receive the support they need, they can reinforce support for their kids, leading to greater intimacy within the family. According to Aaron, there is no cure for ADHD, but a combination of approaches can be beneficial. Medication is important, but should be complemented with behavioral training, therapies, and exercises. Aaron emphasizes the importance of using a whole toolbox of strategies to address the various aspects of ADHD. Aaron explains, ADHD can be a catalyst for personal growth and excellence. Embracing a diagnosis of ADHD can lead to thriving and personal development. Therapy can help adults navigate the emotional aspects and come to terms with their diagnosis, although it may not address all executive function challenges. Aaron emphasizes the importance of self-love, compassion, and understanding oneself better, which therapy can facilitate. Ultimately, an ADHD diagnosis can serve as an invitation to self-awareness and growth.Many of our defense mechanisms and ways of motivating ourselves that once served us well may no longer be effective as we evolve. Elaine mentions the "stick" that adults with ADHD have used to beat themselves up in order to be successful. While this coping mechanism may have worked in the past, it is important for individuals to learn to put the stick down and find healthier ways to motivate themselves.

You’re not alone! In this FREEguide for caring (and exhausted!) parents, you may recognize some of the key tips -- but it’s always good to have a reminder! And then there will be some new ideas to help you put yourself back on your list and find a little more peace and joy in family life. Sure, your kids may need more than other kids. But that doesn’t mean you don’t deserve the care you need to keep helping your kids!Here is what to expect on this week’s show:Parenting challenges can significantly impact the well-being and emotions of parents. Diane and Elaine explore the theme that parents often become stressed, overwhelmed, and experience a range of emotions due to their focus on their children. They emphasize the importance of parents taking care of themselves in order to effectively engage with their children. They discuss the need for parents to be in a good mental state to problem solve and navigate the complexities of parenting.Diane shares her personal experience of realizing her stress while watching home videos. She struggled to control the chaos in her life. Elaine adds that stress can lead to offensive or defensive approaches, such as shutting down or becoming aggressive. Diane explains the stages of dysregulation, where emotions and logical thinking compete in the brain. This often happens when parents feel overwhelmed, worried, or burdened by guilt or perfectionism. Elaine emphasizes that parents may react to stress in various ways, including internalizing, engaging in unhealthy behaviors, or resorting to explosions, blaming, and micromanaging. Prevention is crucial for maintaining emotional well-being and avoiding reactive behaviors. Diane and Elaine discuss the importance of recognizing triggers and staying aware to prevent escalation. Elaine shares an interesting perspective about how children and adults may already be in a triggered state, making explosive reactions more likely.Emotional regulation is a crucial skill that helps individuals manage their emotions and respond to challenging situations in a healthy manner. According to Diane and Elaine, it's important to be gentle with oneself when it comes to emotional regulation. They suggest taking a moment to breathe, reclaim your brain, and figure out what you need in that moment. They also highlight the importance of finding strategies that work for you, such as taking a walk or engaging in self-care activities. Ultimately, emotional regulation is about noticing and navigating your emotions.Links:Self-Awareness, Self-Regulation, & Self-ManagementWhat Story are You Telling Yourself?RESENTMENT!
