What is ADHD Brain Freeze + Solutions & Executive Dysfunction
Saturday, 1 June, 2024

In this video I'm going to teach you how to break ADHD brain freeze. ADHD brain freeze, is a symptom of the ADHD mind where you stare at a project, really wanting to begin, but you can't because your brain feels stuck. And it's similar to ADHD paralysis. ADHD Brain Freeze is caused by the Executive Function system in the brain becoming overwhelmed and thus freezing like an overwhelmed computer.
