Setting Boundaries: Tamara Rosier's Guide for ADHD Minds

Building boundaries is a process of building your house and it doesn't really formulate until around the 30s, and the building process is exhausting and you'll see the house change a little bit throughout that time.
Why do boundaries matter so much for people with ADHD? Tamara Rosier, PhD, returns to 'ADHD Focus' to tackle this crucial question. As the founder of the ADHD Center of Western Michigan and the author of 'Your Brain’s Not Broken', Tamara brings a wealth of knowledge and practical advice to the table. She joins host Dr. David Pomeroy to break down why boundaries are often a struggle for those with ADHD and how setting them can be life-changing.
In this engaging conversation, Tamara and David cover a range of topics that hit close to home for many listeners. They discuss the challenges of perfectionism and impulsiveness, the differences between convergent and divergent thinking, and the often-overlooked issue of rejection sensitivity and people-pleasing. These elements can make boundary-setting feel like an uphill battle, but Tamara offers actionable steps to make it more manageable. Tamara emphasizes that boundaries are not just barriers; they are gifts you give yourself.
By defining what you will and won't accept, you create a space where you can thrive. The episode also dives into the process of self-definition and how it ties into setting effective boundaries. Whether you're dealing with impulsiveness or struggling to say 'no', this episode provides a roadmap to help you manage ADHD symptoms better. For anyone grappling with ADHD or supporting someone who is, this episode is a must-listen.
It’s packed with insights that can help you understand the importance of boundaries and how to implement them in your life.
