Good social skills require attention, something that is often fleeting for us. Use these strategies to help compensate when ADHD symptoms get in the way.
Have you ever had a conversation with a friend, coworker, or acquaintance that starts out well, but takes a turn for the worse? Your conversation mate suddenly signals that she has to take a call in the middle of an important point you’re making or responds less and less to what you think are clever remarks.
Steph talked to her boyfriend about the pressure she felt to make a good impression, and how she hadn’t realized that she was interrupting. She fixed the situation by sending them a thank-you card for the dinner and writing a note explaining that her excitement to meet them had gotten the best of her. She ended on a positive note, telling them that she looked forward to getting together again.
Remember that no one likes getting negative feedback, but if the feedback is accurate, it will save you more pain later.
