Masking is the process by which a person hides or modifies their behaviors and emotions to fit social expectations. For people with ADHD, this may mean forcing more attention, holding back hyperactivity, or masking organizational difficulties. This strategy, while useful in the short term to go unnoticed or avoid judgment, can lead to accumulated stress and fatigue, negatively affecting psychological well-being. Masking can also make it difficult for others to recognize and understand the true impact of ADHD on daily life. It is essential that people with ADHD and their loved ones are aware of this phenomenon and seek a balance between adapting to social expectations and preserving their authentic well-being. Today we talk about this phenomenon with Valerio Rosso, a neuroscience specialist and science communicator (http://www.lifeology.it), Giancarlo Giupponi, a psychiatrist, and Agnese Raponi, a psychologist at GAM Medical. #adhd #neurodivergente #masking #neurodivergent ▶ Do you think you are ADHD?
