The Warped Mirror of Self-Perception| Authentic On Air S2:E9

  • Summary

  • If you are an ADHD adult it almost impossible to have a solid self-perception in this day and age. You were raised being told so much of what you naturally are is not ok.

    Intense. Unfiltered. Impulsive. Emotional. Talkative. Awkward. Uncomfortable.

    If you don’t feel like any of those things describe you try to remember the young version of you on the playground or the classroom being ostracized. Then try to shed the social norms that you have assimilated as preferred behavior and realize what is left is who you actually are.

    The dissonance that is created between the core you and the one that is shown to the world today causes a lot of internal conflict that shows itself in some funky ways.

    For me it was body dysmorphia and serial suppression to try and keep the depression and pain at bay. That started at a very young age. I just wanted to be a kid. But between my parents and the public school system I was told there was a specific type of kid I needed to be to be accepted in society.

    In becoming that type I buried the real me deep inside until many years later and when I looked in the literal and metaphorical mirror it was always warped.

    It showed parts of me as bigger than they were and others the reverse. Never could I just see myself for as I really was.

    Long story short, do not make decisions based on how you feel about what you see in the warped mirror!

    Live by a code. Tell the truth about your situations and deal with what you can prove to be true. Define a desired result and address the facts in a way that gets you the result you want.

    If what you want is to stop letting life happen to you we should have a conversation. At Impulsive we stop the guilt fear and shame conditioned into us and learn how to do just like I said before. Live by a code and deal in the currency of truth and the facts and from there teach you how to trust your impulses to guide you to a future of passion and purpose. www.impulsive.life/consult
