In this episode we tackle something many ADHD people struggle with which is that hiding-to-nothing, perfectionism. I wondered my whole life where my perfectionism came from and it was until I received my diagnosis that I started to understand a bit more.


I mention Stephen Guise's book How to Be an Imperfectionist -- you can find it on Amazon.


In this episode:


  • The ways that perfectionism manifests itself.

  • The role that rejection sensitive dysphoria plays in perfectionism.

  • How emotional dysregulation triggers the perfectionist.

  • Why perfectionism is an inevitable consequence of masking.

  • What it feels like to become a "recovering perfectionist."
