Tuesday Coaching Life feeling harder than it should? Let's bridge that gap.

Coaching for ADHD, autistic, and AuDHD adults (diagnosed or questioning) who understand their patterns but get stuck between knowing and doing.

A lot of people are not understanding this one crucial ADHD fact: ADHD is not white.

People defending Paris Hilton as opening up a conversation and excusing the lack of representation are reinforcing white supremacist structures, specifically in the medical field, that minimize racialized people’s struggles and only allow for support based on race.

Standing up against the lack of representation is to stand up for medical facts and evidence based information.

Which is that ADHD doesn’t have a race. ADHD is not white.

Why do I mention ego as part of ADHD/ASD burnout prevention?

Because ADHDers are used to relying on urgency to kickstart action and hyperfocus, sometimes ignoring exhaustion as a signal that rest is required. Autism can rely on set routines to get things done, yet may not feel exhaustion due to alexithymia.

Together, someone who is both ADHD and autistic might assume “I’m tired but I will get more energy when it’s last minute and I will get more things done.” Yet when the AuDHDer doesn’t get enough done, doesn’t get what they think is the “bare minimum,” the resulting shame and self-bullying wastes even more energy. Rinse and repeat, increasing the chance of worsening burnout.

If this sounds familiar, the first big step is to be realistic and put your ego aside. That means:

1) Define exhaustion even if you’re not sure of the bodily signals (external signals can be increased doomscrolling or being unable to engage with a favorite activity). And also
2) Define rest. What situations can you think of where you have a calm body and mind? This can be through taking a walk, engaging in a low demanding yet enjoyable activity, or rewatching a favorite show.

The more realistic you are about exhaustion, and how to engage in restful activities, the more likely you are in preventing full burnout.

Autistic folks have autistic traits. Someone not autistic doesn’t have autistic traits. Why? Because to be autistic means you have met the criteria for autism. Below that, every trait is just a human trait. You are either autistic or not autistic.

The ONLY caveat to this is BAP (Broad Autism Phenotype) which an informal label describing subclinical traits. Even then, that’s not being “a little autistic” because you exhibit one trait in the autism criteria

Let’s say it loudly: “It’s a spectrum” is not, and never has been, a straight line from allistic (non autistic) to autistic.

It’s always been about the varying presentations of autism that are all valid. It’s always been autism to autism to autism.

Those defending Paris’s ADHD summit conveniently forgot how ADHD is neurodevelopmental - ADHD is not limited to any one race or background.

Why are people extending so much grace to an event that centered white privilege, spread misinformation, and glossed over systemic barriers?

This is social media: optics matter, and impact means more than intention. If Paris Hilton wanted to make things right, she could easily use her platform to address everything. Instead, it’s only been BBIA creators such as Christal Wang Lauren Berty • Relatable Twin Momhood + Millennial Content doing the heavy lifting and discussing representation. Which is exactly the problem at hand. It should not be the additional responsibility of BBIA voices to remind everyone that non-white ADHDers exist, and then feel required to speak as a representative because of how few of us were there.

I’m frustrated by how Paris’s event has emphasized privilege, not decentered it. Criticism is given where criticism is due and if such words prevent her advocacy from moving forward, it will only demonstrate how this was never advocacy at all. It was just a private party.

The “ADHD is a superpower” narrative always leaves out what happens when you adopt this perspective in the long run.

Even when ignoring the neurosupremacy of the narrative, the 3 major ways I’ve seen this narrative harm ADHDer’s is 1) through created an imbalance in relationships, 2) supporting unrealistic expectations and demands on your energy levels that could drive you straight into burnout, and 3) shielding you from better education that can increase self-awareness and thus self-acceptance of being a human with ADHD.

I understand why newly diagnosed ADHD adults are tempted to embrace this view at the start. Yet rarely do I see anyone benefit from taking this stance in the long run. 

Why adopt a perspective that might actually hurt you in the end?

I’m appalled by every educator/advocate/coach who went to Paris’ ADHD event and decided to either 1) not address the damaging “ADHD is a superpower” narrative or 2) address it by saying it’s okay for some people to adopt that mentality.

I work with ADHD autistic clients every day and for me, this narrative is the fastest way to burnout. On top of how it is a part of “neurosupremacy” where the belief in super powers minimizes the struggles of others.

I had hope for the event because it was a first but the videos I’m seeing released just horrify me. Not only because NO WHITE CREATOR is addressing the lack of diversity but because the event seems to have done the opposite - which is promote misinformation, not tackle it.

ADHD is not a superpower.
Non-white ADHDers exist.
Non-rich ADHDers exist.
Representation matters.

Being an ADHD autistic support professional working with ADHD autistic adults navigating energy, relationships, and burnout means I have experience with all of it. But it also means I’m not innocent of repeating past mistakes.

Here’s a little story of what I did to support myself and how ADHD planning (or lack of) can help support your mental health when you need it. With some assistance of a dear friend.

I work with people with ADHD and autism, but I’m not immune to messing things up. Which includes forgetting to take medication and supplements sometimes.

Being comfortably ADHD and autistic means understanding imperfection is a part of life.
