I don t know where to start with ADHD.

6/19 Edited to

... Read more私は大人のADHDである自覚がありますが、友人や職場の同僚に自分の考えを伝える際に、話がついあちこちに飛んでしまい悩んでいました。例えば、遅刻の理由を説明するときも、「今日遅刻した理由なんやけど」「あ、違う待って」「まず朝起きて...」と話がまとまらず、相手に誤解を与えかねません。 そんなときに役立ったのは、話す前に伝えたいポイントを3つまでに絞り、メモを作ることでした。この準備で自分の頭の中の混乱を整理でき、話が脱線しにくくなります。また、話しながら「今何を伝えようとしているか」を意識的に言葉に出すことで、自分自身も軌道修正が可能です。 さらに、話し方を工夫して、エピソードを時系列で簡潔に伝える訓練をしました。例えば、「昨日寝るの遅くて」「それで朝起きるのが遅くなって遅刻した」という順番で話すと、聞き手が理解しやすいです。話が飛びやすい自分の特性を受け入れつつ、相手に伝わる伝え方を模索することが大切です。 このように、話す内容をあらかじめ整理し明確なポイントを伝えることは、ADHDの私にとって会話のストレスを減らす助けになりました。同じ悩みを持つ方には、自分の話し方の癖を知り、小さな工夫から始めてみることをおすすめします。
