Attention Talk Radio

More and more researchers are looking at ADHD as an executive function issue.  We've done several interviews around neurotransmitters and dopamine. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, we interview Dr. Russell Ramsay on the role dopamine plays in motivation and then deepen our discussion of it in the context of executive functions.  From there, we'll talk about cognition and CBT as a useful ADHD treatment.  If you're interested in learning more about motivation, ADHD, or treatments, this is a show you won't want to miss.

For whatever reason, many of those with ADHD are particularly sensitive to what is right and what is wrong. Could it stem from emotional issues from childhood? Setbacks in one’s personal life?

Can you believe there is virtually no research on ADHD and the elderly? Surely they must be impacted.

Attention and perception define our experience in life.  They also define what we are and are not aware of. Question is… how aware are you of being unaware?  Many researchers and professionals believe awareness or self-awareness is the key for those with ADHD to manage it.  ADHD and attention coach Jeff Copper believes the first step to managing awareness is to understand how unaware we really are because of “inattentional” blindness.  In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, we interview Dr. Daniel Simons (www.dansimons.com), psychologist and co-author of The Invisible Gorilla, a book that will open your mind to visual awareness.  Dan is an expert in visual perception and attention and has mastered the art of putting people in an experience for them to witness how blind they are to the blinding flash of the obvious.  If you have ADHD and want to more effectively manage your awareness, join us and learn just how unaware most of us really are.

Is gender variance consistent between the population and the ADHD community, or is the frequency higher in one group over the other. Is there any difference in coming out or inviting in?

Those with ADHD are not stupid. Their issue isn’t knowing what to do; it’s using the executive functioning brain to execute what they already know. If this is the case, why do so many people focus on goals and outcomes to help those with ADHD? Wouldn’t it be better to help those with ADHD understand their own process that leads to outcome? In this interview we discuss the topic with Dr. Ari Tuckman (http://www.adultadhdbook.com) and illustrate how a focus on process can lead to outcomes. If outcomes elude you, then don’t miss this show!
