I'm really glad you brought in an ADHDer! Neurodivergent discourse should always be led by the people it impacts.

Something worth looking into is the difference between polychronic time (how ADHDers naturally perceive time) and monochronic time (how neuronormatives perceive time). The polychronic view sees time as interchangeable/fungible; it doesn't matter when the thing gets done, as long as it gets done. In the monochronic view, certain times have exclusive, predetermined purposes. There's more to both views, but that's the core. Both have strengths and weaknesses, but monochronic time is the "acceptable default" in normative Western society.

I find it also helps me a lot when people communicate with me in writing. With verbal communication, I sometimes struggle to tell the difference between casual remarks and important information. When it's in writing, I'm a lot more confident that the info is correct and intentional. It also gives me time to process any emotions I may have so I can avoid fawning. (I've had some managers whom I suspect avoided written communication in order to get me to fawn, so I would be more compliant.)

Heads up: "high functioning" and "low functioning" are considered discriminatory by many people in the autism community. They are based in the medical model of disability rather than the social model of disability. The preferred terms are "low support needs" and "high support needs", respectively.

@@SummerJelinek Yeah, a "how to manage up when you're neurodivergent" series would be great! One way to look at disclosure from the perspective of leaders might be "how to avoid fishing questions". Like, when someone asks me to explain why I need a particular accommodation, I feel very pressured to disclose. That's tough because I really WANT to explain the "why" of things and be understood, but I also fear the discrimination and prejudice that may come with disclosing certain labels.

Hi Summer, great content. Thank you for sharing your story and life experiences, I appreciate you being open about your challenges and sharing the wisdom you've gained on your journey. I have suggestions about labels- the terms low functioning or high functioning are not the preferred terms for many in the community; the former can be pejorative and negate the talents a person has; while the latter can negate the struggles we regularly face when our disabilities are not readily apparent to others. A quote I borrowed from someone on Reddit: “high-functioning is used to deny support, low-functioning is used to deny agency” I've found the best terms commonly used in the community are those that describe our needs- (e.g., an autistic person /w high support needs or an autistic person with low support needs). Some people may also use medical terms like autism with intellectual disability or autism with a learning disability, which convey that the secondary feature is a separate condition from autism.

I am happy for you to have received your diagnosis and wish you all the best in your journey of discovery. You might want to change the title of this video to what is a neurodivergent or something along those lines. I thought based on the title that you were giving neurodivergent leadership advice for the workplace.
@SummerJelinek
@SummerJelinek Ай бұрын
Hi Linda, Thanks for the comment. Were you thinking the video was speaking to leaders who are neurodivergent? The video was made as a kind of "neurodivergence 101" for those who lead in the workplace but are not neurodivergent themselves or want to learn more about different types of neurodivergence. Before I adjust the title, I want to ensure I understand the confusion so it doesn't add more down the road. Thanks again and I look forward to your reply.

@@SummerJelinek I know what you mean, I always knew I was a bit different. I mean even friends would refer to me as crazy in a good way and my mum would say I'm eccentric. As strange as it seems though I never even considered adhd, I think the steotype kind of threw me off, as it makes us out to be running round and screaming all the time. I'm dual presenting so I'm only doing that half the time 😂.

@@SummerJelinek eccentric is the best, life is too fleeting to live it like everyone else, the idea of being "normal" always seemed a little off putting to me. It's great you're raising awareness, you're doing a good job. I've actually been planning to make a video on here myself. Basically 2023 was not a great year for me and after receiving my diagnosis I had a lot to process so I did something very impulsive and frankly dangerous. I climbed the largest mountain in Wales at night during a storm by myself to take methylphenidate for the first time. I wasn't harmed, although did pass out at the top for 3 hours in 100mph wind

Thanks for this message Summer. It really hits home as a HR Manager. I find myself working a little harder to bring on the season cheer however it helps me to get over the "poor me" when I am helping someone at this time of year. This year my family decided on simple handmade gifts or just spending time together. I encourage all the employees to participate or not, in their own way. Happy Holidays to you.

I have always been more of an extrovert. But I have definitely noticed that over the course of the pandemic and now coming out of it...I have become somewhat introverted. I am OK just hanging out at home by myself now. I notice that I don't feel as confident as I used to in new places or around new people. I miss that confidence!
