Hi, Stimuli subscribers, Steve here, and welcome to the first course, I've recorded for CBT for ADHD, although I think probably a better term for what this is, is CBT for mental health symptoms associated with ADHD, that's a bit more of a mouthful.
Because it's a neurodevelopmental issue I don't want us to be sort of looking at this as if it's something that we're going to cure. Because we're very, we try to be very clear here at Stimuli that this is something that we're trying to help you to understand and accept.
This first course of CBT audios over the next period of weeks will be heavily focused on anxiety and anxiety symptoms. It will also have some strategies for managing anxiety and worry. There will also be lots of education not only around ADHD, but also around anxiety, the brain and the body. Because yeah, we believe very firmly that the path to acceptance begins with understanding.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the programme. We'd encourage you to listen to the audios several times for it to sink in, hopefully through osmosis. If you're anything like me, you might need to listen to it a number of times. But that's one of the benefits, I think of the programme is that you can do that. And we have deliberate breaks in between audios and over the weekend to allow you to start trying things out and for consolidation of learning.
Anyway, I hope it's helpful and I hope you enjoy thanks.
