Who is “Dr. ADHD”?
Dr. ADHD is a fictional character. He represents the experience of a brain that is fast, curious, and creative – sometimes so fast that thoughts spark like fireworks. With humor, he explains why it feels like everything is happening at once – and how you can deal with it.
What is “Absurdistan”?
Absurdistan is the image for this inner world: colorful, loud, full of ideas – but also chaotic.
- Topics jump before one is fully thought through.
- Stimuli are intense: noises, messages, to-dos.
- The mind races ahead, everyday life stumbles behind.
Absurdistan is not “wrong”. It is a different way of thinking – with risks (overload) and strengths (creativity, problem-solving, energy).
How you notice it in yourself
- You have lots of ideas, but struggle to put them into action.
- Focus slips quickly – little things throw you off.
- You start enthusiastically, but lose the thread.
- Humor helps you take it all more lightly.
How to cope better
- Unravel: One thing at a time. Briefly note what comes later.
- Manage stimuli: Bundle notifications, define work windows.
- Mini-routines: 20–25 min. focus, 5 min. reset.
- Space for creativity: Consciously park ideas (note, voice memo).
