ADHD From a Sociological Perspective

<p>I suggested in previous posts that ADHD is really only a &ldquo;problem&rdquo; within certain cultures or social structures. Those&nbsp;<em>suffering</em>&nbsp;from ADHD are those who are in a &ldquo;sit still and do what you&rsquo;re told&rdquo; environment such as school and a corporate workplace. Those&nbsp;<em>thriving</em>&nbsp;with ADHD have managed to land in a role where they&rsquo;re able to lean into the parts of ADHD that are powerful. Thom Hargmann&rsquo;s book &ldquo;<a href="https://amzn.to/3TbuorU" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank">ADHD: A Hunter in a Farmer&rsquo;s World</a>&rdquo; takes the whole notion of ADHD and turns it on its ear.</p> <p>I should start by thanking&nbsp;</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/u/646f033b13b2?source=post_page-----95f0d2557879--------------------------------" rel="noopener" target="_blank">J.K.Hammond</a></p> <p>&nbsp;for suggesting this book to me. I should also say that I&rsquo;m waiting for my copy to arrive and read, so everything below is my thoughts or rudimentary research. What I want is to&nbsp;<em>explore this idea</em>&nbsp;before I explore the book. I want to see where my own thoughts lead&hellip; because I have some. To me, the things that make a hunter or gatherer successful are not what makes a farmer successful. I&rsquo;m curious to explore what a modern version of these roles looks like.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/humans-with-adhd/adhd-from-a-sociological-perspective-95f0d2557879"><strong>Read More</strong></a></p>
