with ADHD is hesitant to commit to an appointment or arrangement due to the fear that they wont feel like doing it in the future and their peers think that the reason for their refusal is avoidance or a lack of motivation These challenges with emotional regulation are actually related to the difficulties individuals are having in anticipating and managing their emotions in the future Those with emotional regulation struggles can experience what Hanline describes as an emotional meltdown in which they are so stressed that they react to events in a manner like childrens temper tantrums They may cry or yell and they cant think clearly Adults suffering from ADHD can avoid a meltdown by recognizing signs of emotional distress They can also keep a positive outlook in life They can practice pausing a set of behaviors that slow down reactions like taking deep breaths or counting to 10 before reacting to triggers They can also work to prepare a strategy to deal with a potential meltdown in advance
