Learning about the dysfunction the ADHD brain 🧠 experiences when trying to shift to and from the DMN (Default Mode Network) to the TPN (Task Positive Network), making it more difficult to get things done efficiently and maintain focus, or break our focus, was pivotal in being able to understand my own brain. Hyperfixations also get explained by the dysfunction of these networks... When the brain gets stuck in TPN, we have the ability/motivation to do something without stopping but often lack control over what the brain is choosing to focus on. And the opposite when the brain gets stuck in DMN, we still experience creativity and have ambitions but can't access the motivation needed to make progress #ADHD #ADHDBrain #ADHDLifeCoach #ADHDAwareness #Neurodivergent
