If you’re an adult struggling with symptoms you believe may be ADHD, you’re not alone. At Thiel Mental Health Services, we specialize in ADHD therapy for adults in Berlin, CT with easy access for surrounding areas including Meriden, Hartford, and New Britain.
What ADHD can look like in adults
ADHD in adults is often less about hyperactivity and more about challenges with executive functioning—the skills that help you plan, start, and follow through on tasks.
You might notice:
Starting tasks (Activation)
- “I know what I need to do, I just can’t get myself to start.”
- Tasks feel mentally overwhelming before you even begin
Staying focused (Focus)
- Getting distracted easily or jumping between tasks
- Difficulty sustaining attention, especially on less interesting tasks
Managing effort and energy (Effort)
- Strong bursts of productivity followed by burnout
- Trouble staying consistent, even with important responsibilities
Managing emotions (Emotion regulation)
- Feeling easily overwhelmed, frustrated, or shut down
- Emotional reactions that feel bigger or harder to control than expected
Using working memory (Memory)
- Forgetting what you were just doing or planning to do
- Losing track of steps, instructions, or conversations
Monitoring yourself (Self-awareness)
- Underestimating how long things will take
- Not realizing something is off until it becomes a bigger issue
Organizing and planning (Planning & organization)
- Difficulty prioritizing, sequencing, or breaking tasks down
- Feeling stuck when trying to figure out “where to star
These challenges aren’t about laziness or lack of motivation—they’re rooted in how the ADHD brain manages executive functioning.
