"I Do not have ADHD When I Drive My Truck" Exploring the Temporal Dynamics of ADHD as a Lived Experience.
With this article, we set out to introduce a dynamic and expansive notion of what it means to live with ADHD. Based on ethnographic fieldwork among families living with ADHD in Denmark and inspired by Thomas Fuchs' Eigenzeit [own-time], we forward the notion of "own-time space" as a means of examining the dynamic nature of ADHD. Own-time spaces connect the lived experience of ADHD and time to space. Own-time spaces are situations where the presence or absence of others, and cultural expectations related to timing or tempo enter complex, rhythmic interactions in ways that allow ADHD symptoms to fade into the background. We suggest that own-time spaces are characterized by space, rhythm, and imagistic thinking, and add to our existing knowledge of shielding as a therapeutic effort in ADHD treatment. With own-time space we emphasize that shielding is not just a matter of place or protection from stimuli, but also involves temporal, meaning-making, and relational dimensions. Own-time spaces are dynamic environments where individuals can navigate and negotiate their own rhythms and temporalities and foster a sense of agency and thriving.
期刊介绍:
Culture, Medicine, and Psychiatry is an international and interdisciplinary forum for the publication of work in three interrelated fields: medical and psychiatric anthropology, cross-cultural psychiatry, and related cross-societal and clinical epidemiological studies. The journal publishes original research, and theoretical papers based on original research, on all subjects in each of these fields. Interdisciplinary work which bridges anthropological and medical perspectives and methods which are clinically relevant are particularly welcome, as is research on the cultural context of normative and deviant behavior, including the anthropological, epidemiological and clinical aspects of the subject. Culture, Medicine, and Psychiatry also fosters systematic and wide-ranging examinations of the significance of culture in health care, including comparisons of how the concept of culture is operationalized in anthropological and medical disciplines. With the increasing emphasis on the cultural diversity of society, which finds its reflection in many facets of our day to day life, including health care, Culture, Medicine, and Psychiatry is required reading in anthropology, psychiatry and general health care libraries.
