The ADHD challenge: Out of sight, out of mind
Manage episode 360970314 series 3461275
On this weeks episode of the Absolutely ADHD Podcast, Alana & Sam are chatting about the common ADHD challenge of "out of sight, out of mind".
Commonly mistaken as object permanence on social media, this concept has much more to do with our working memory function - which Alana shares in this episode.
ADHD brains are very focused on the "now" and what is right in front of us in the moment. With such busy brains, we also have lots of incoming thoughts & pieces of information to hold onto...
All of which make it super difficult to remember certain things when they aren't directly in front of us
If you're enjoying the podcast - don't forget to subscribe, write us a review or share with a friend, so we can share with more amazing ADHDers! We appreciate the support so much!
