Overreaction is one of the most common symptoms of ADHD, in which the emotional response does not match the nature or severity of the stimulus. People with ADHD may struggle to discriminate between serious risks and small issues. They frequently overreact and, “need to be talked off the brink.” Because of their hyperarousal, most persons with ADHD never experience tranquility. Their minds are constantly racing at 100 miles per hour till they become fatigued. Rejection and criticism are extremely painful for those with ADHD. They may feel hopeless and demoralized since they strive to succeed by imitating the success paths of people without ADHD, only to fail repeatedly because the same paths do not work for them.
