ADHD: Taking Notes and Making Lists—A Deep Dive

Got ADHD? Do you struggle with notes and lists—taking them but not knowing what to do with them, or ending up with lists scattered everywhere? In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, cognitive engineer and ADHD coach Jeff Copper (https://www.digcoaching.com) explores the functional role of notes and lists to better understand what’s happening cognitively. Sometimes notes help you pay attention in the moment. Other times they serve as a reference to revisit information or a way to synthesize ideas so they’re easier to study and remember. And sometimes, people simply stop using their notes altogether.Jeff breaks down why many people with ADHD repeatedly rewrite daily lists, struggle to act on what’s written, or feel overwhelmed by the whole process. If you’re confused about how notes and lists are supposed to work—or feel like you’re doing them “wrong”—this episode will help clarify their purpose and how to use them more effectively. If this sounds like you, tune in. You may discover you’re doing more right than you think.  Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and attention deficit disorder, including managing symptoms of ADHD in adults with ADD or adults who have children with ADHD.

The two have a direct and honest conversation about the challenges many face around managing emotional intelligence. This is a big challenge. On one level, there's no easy way out.

ADHD Through a New Paradigm: Dr. Pomeroy's Inside Out Perspective

ADHD is considered a focus problem. When you dig into it, it's really an executive functioning impairment. Executive functions are a collection of mind tools that you use to solve problems. For those with ADHD, these mind tools are less efficient. Thus, it would seem to be harder for those with ADHD to solve problems like neurotypicals. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, cognitive engineer and ADHD coach, Jeff Copper (https://digcoaching.com/), interviews ADHD thought leader, Dr. David Pomeroy. The two discuss Dr. Pomeroy’s lived experience as a physician and a student of Cognitive Ergonomics From the Inside Out—specifically how this new paradigm compares and contrasts to Dr. Pomeroy's prior beliefs. If you recognize current interventions fall short, this is a show you won't want to miss.  Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and attention deficit disorder, including managing symptoms of ADHD in adults with ADD or adults who have children with ADHD.
