The Chinese name for ADHD is “注意缺陷多动障碍”, also commonly called “多动症”. Both terms tend to carry quite negative associations.But is it possible that the ADHD brain is simply a different way of existing, rather than something “abnormal”? Perhaps modern society is simply structured in a way that favors non-ADHD brains.00:40 The Chinese name of ADHD and the negative connotations of “hyperactivity disorder”01:51 Why more and more people are talking about ADHD03:05 Three ADHD tendencies I notice in myself10:58 My understanding of ADHD: reward circuits, stimulation, and hyperfocus12:53 The “Hunter vs. Farmer” hypothesis17:12 Looking at ADHD from a new perspective18:28 What kinds of jobs suit a “hunter-type brain”21:21 Accepting my ADHD tendencies and incorporating them into life choicesADHD的中文名叫做“注意缺陷多动障碍”，也叫“多动症”，这两个词都给人很负面的联想。但是有没有一种可能，ADHD的大脑只是一种不同的存在方式，而非“不正常”，只是这个社会更偏向于非ADHD的大脑。00:40 ADHD的中文名称与“多动症”的负面联想01:51 为什么现在越来越多人讨论ADHD03:05 我自己身上的三种ADHD倾向表现10:58 我理解的ADHD本质：奖励回路、刺激与超级专注12:53 “猎人与农夫”假说17:12 用新的视角看待ADHD18:28 什么样的工作更适合“猎人型大脑”21:21 接纳自己的ADHD倾向，并把它纳入人生选择Useful video about ADHD:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xp805f-j1VI-------------------------------------In the latest newsletter, I shared a few Chinese memes I’ve been seeing frequently on Chinese social media in 2025.Interested in more Chinese content beyond the podcast and the video?
