Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder can be thought of as brain wiring with a two-level system. One is the automatic brain, which is automatic behavior, and the other is the executive functioning brain that is very effortful and is needed to engage itself to override the automatic brain. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, we interview Wes Gray (www.areyouadd.com), diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago, after which he had a stroke. His experience of coming back from the stroke and his need to be more self-aware and to pause to engage his executive functioning actually helped him begin to manage his ADHD like never before.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is often described as a unique brain wiring.
