ADHD gets called a superpower a lot, but that framing misses the reality of executive dysfunction, overstimulation, and exhaustion. Sherry and Val explore the polarising nature of the superpower narrative. Yes, there are areas where ADHD feels like a strength: hyper-focus, connecting dots, wide awareness, empathy. But calling it a superpower invalidates the real struggles and creates shame when you can't live up to superhuman expectations. Learn about cyclical productivity, why medication timing matters, and how to honour both the strengths and challenges without forcing either into a box.
