Research on ADHD and volitional control documents a consistent dissociation between knowing and doing that is neurological rather than motivational. Adults with ADHD frequently demonstrate accurate knowledge of strategies and behaviors that would improve their wellbeing while being unable to initiate those same behaviors. This is not denial or resistance. It is the direct result of impaired executive function. The action system and the knowledge system are separate. In ADHD, they frequently fail to connect. #adhd #adhdtiktok #adhdfitness #adhdexercise #neurodivergentlife
