Embracing Neurodiversity: Navigating ADHD in Power Dynamics

Do you ever feel like ADHD is a chaos monster out to sabotage your power exchange? ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) affects how people process information, regulate emotions, and navigate relationships. In this class, Carter explores the intersections of ADHD and power exchange, addressing both the challenges and strengths it brings to each role. Difficulties with maintaining focus, following directions, managing impulsivity, organization, time management, and maintaining consistency can all feel like massive roadblocks to satisfying power exchange for both parties. But it's not all hurdles – Carter will also discuss strengths that ADHD can bring to power-imbalanced relationships. Creativity, spontaneity, and hyperfocus are just a few examples of how ADHD traits can enrich power dynamics. Whether one partner or both are neurodivergent, Carter will address complexities that arise within power exchange relationships when ADHD is part of the equation. From communication breakdowns to misunderstandings, he will provide practical tools and strategies for fostering understanding, empathy, and mutual respect. Additionally, Carter will discuss the ways power exchange can serve as a valuable tool for supporting the management of ADHD symptoms.
