How can you reward yourself for accomplishing even the smaller things like putting the scissors away? This isn't an "everyone gets a trophy" type of thinking, it's an easy way to create a much needed dopamine hit for a neurodiverse brain. That said, are we in need of too much external validation? We also discuss some household programs we've tried to varying degrees of success. How do you get buy in from your kids? Are rewards a good thing?
We watch a great clip from The Holderness Family (@theholdernessfamily) then talk about our experiences on how we generate dopamine for ourselves.
We’re a group of GenXers who learned about our ADHD and neurodiversity later in life. Join us as we discuss interesting clips we find online and how they relate to our own life experiences.
Please note: While we are advocates for for mental health awareness, we are not mental health professionals. The purpose of our podcast is to help other neurodiverse people by sharing our own experiences, as well as tools and resources we have found valuable to us.
Special thanks to The Holderness Family!
