Building Healthy Connections: Developing Friendships

About Course

People with ADHD frequently struggle socially because of concerns with inattention (missing social cues and zoning out in discussions), impulsivity (bumping into conversations and appearing unpleasant), and hyperactivity. (having problems sitting still when expected, and standing out as quirky and different).

Executive disorders can also cause social problems since they may be late, disorganized, and forgetful, which can greatly frustrate and anger people.

Other types of training must be included in order to strengthen core Attention skills, impulsivity, and executive abilities are all important. However, many persons with ADHD acquire poor social skills, which must sometimes be educated. Listening skills, dispute resolution, reading body language and picking up social clues, eye contact, sharing, and so on may all be trained.
