ADHD FAQs

ADHDers often have questions about various aspects of life, including work, relationships, productivity, mental health, and daily functioning. Here are some frequently asked questions I hear as a coach:


Work & Productivity

  • How can I stay focused on tasks when my brain keeps jumping to something else?

  • Why do I struggle to start tasks, even when I know they're important?

  • How do I manage time better when I always underestimate how long things take?

  • How do I avoid burnout when I hyperfocus on projects?

  • What are some workplace accommodations that can help me be more productive?

  • How do I explain my ADHD to my boss or coworkers?

Organization & Daily Life

  • Why do I forget things so easily, even when they’re important?

  • How do I keep my space organized when I struggle with clutter?

  • What strategies help with decision paralysis?

  • How can I make routines stick when I get bored so easily?

  • How do I stop procrastinating things I don’t want to do?

Mental Health & Self-Perception

  • Am I lazy, or is this my ADHD?

  • How do I deal with rejection sensitivity and feeling like a failure?

  • Why do I get so overwhelmed by small tasks?

  • How can I stop beating myself up for struggling with “simple” things?

  • How do I manage ADHD along with anxiety or depression?

Relationships & Social Life

  • How do I maintain friendships when I forget to check in?

  • Why do I interrupt people so much, and how can I stop?

  • How do I navigate conflict when I get emotionally overwhelmed?

  • Why do I struggle with small talk or remembering details about others?

ADHD Treatment & Management

  • What’s the best way to tell if medication is working for me?

  • How do I know if I need medication or if other strategies are enough?

  • What are effective non-medication strategies for managing ADHD?

A circle with four quadrants coloured white, yellow, red, and black. The Medicine Wheel The four directions of the Medicine Wheel represent an individual's mental, physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Contained within the wheel, the circle symbolises how health is holistic and cyclical, with each factor influencing one another.

Gill is situated on the Haldimand Tract, land promised to Six Nations, which includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island.
