Dr. Dodson Quotes

"Most people get either poorly treated and/or humiliated by the process that less than 25% of people who are seen by a clinician are still involved in any treatment at the end of one year. The only thing that will change this will be a very public malpractice suit for negligent care (or, more likely, no care at all) that will jolt docs out of their complacency."

"Dr. Russel Barkley cannot be blamed for coining the term emotional dysregulation (ED)

which has been bouncing around the psychiatric literature for at least a decade, searching for a definition. Merely claiming the concept as an executive function deficit (EFD) does not make it one."

Dr. Dodson Quotes

Dr. William Dodson

ADHD Servant Leader

"A child’s worst fears are that they are unlovable (because they are broken in some way) and they are going to be abandoned with a problem they cannot fix, no matter how hard they try. If a child knows that you see the potential for greatness in them, they will walk through Hell for you to deliver that greatness.

"In 2019, the European Network Adult ADHD issued a Consensus Guideline that set forth adult ADHD diagnostic criteria for the very 1st time. The really big change was that the EU finally added emotions to the behavioral features that had constituted the diagnostic criteria up to that time. It should be noted that the US organization that prevented adult criteria more than any other (ABSARD) for 20 years was headed by Dr. Barkley."

"Some in my profession view people who have an ADHD style nervous system as being Neurotypical people who are damaged or deficient (without any apparent awareness of how hostile that attitude is)."

Flipping the Script on Dr. Russell Barkley and Executive Functions Deficits
For decades, the mainstream medical narrative surrounding ADHD has been dominated by a single, clinical perspective: ADHD is a severe, unmitigated disability of the prefrontal cortex. The leading architect of this view, the retired Dr. Russell Barkley, gave the world an incredibly rigorous scientific map of executive function deficits—tracking how our brains struggle with working […]
ADHD and Trauma: Star Trek has always been a safe place for the neurodivergent.
For decades, clinicians working with neurodivergent populations have screamed for at least some acknowledgment of how unresolved childhood trauma impacts behavior in adulthood. The APA DSM paid lip service to this issue about eight years ago and has gradually increased its recognition of the effects of unresolved childhood trauma, but it still falls woefully short. Star […]
The Missed Steve Jobs Story: A Path to Empathy
The Missed Steve Jobs Story: A Path to Empathy The big swing and miss in Walter Isaacson's biography of Steve Jobs is his portrayal of Jobs's journey to empathy during the 1990s. There is another perspective, as shared by retired Pixar Animation Studios executive Dr. Ed Catmull. Steve Jobs’ journey to expressing empathy Backstory It […]
Losing a Generation to the Screen: An Educator’s View from the Front Lines of the Sleep Crisis
During my tenure teaching mathematics at Poinciana High School, our campus achieved a remarkable turnaround, elevating our school grade from a C to an A. But as a teacher, true success isn't just measured by institutional data—it’s measured by the human beings sitting in your rows. With my principal’s full backing, I began investigating a […]
How I Cracked the Gemini Code: Subject Mastery Matters
Silicon Valley loves a good marketing myth. For the past few years, the prevailing narrative surrounding generative artificial intelligence has been one of pure "democratization." We are told that these models are all-knowing oracles, and that the single mechanical barrier between a baseline user and absolute genius is a clever text prompt. But as a […]
The Ancestral Shield: Why I Step Into the Mud to Serve and Protect
In the sterile, corporate vocabulary of modern education and athletics, success is often treated as a technical exercise. People talk about pedagogy, scaffolding, executive function, and behavioral modification as if guiding a young mind or building an athletic team is a mechanical process of input and output on a spreadsheet. But for my non-linear, hyper-connected mind, those […]
