The Interest-Based Nervous System Workbook:

Traditional ADHD strategies often assume your brain runs on “importance” — deadlines, consequences, and to-do lists. But if you have ADHD, you probably already know that doesn’t work. This groundbreaking workbook by Dr. Megan Anna Neff flips the script, teaching you to work with your interest-based nervous system — the motivational wiring that actually drives ADHD brains.

Through a mix of neuroscience, reflective prompts, and practical experiments, you’ll learn to identify your five natural motivators: Passion, Interest, Novelty, Challenge (or Cooperation), and Hurry (Urgency) — also known as the PINCH model.

You’ll explore how to harness each one intentionally to build momentum, prevent burnout, and rebuild self-trust.

Featuring visual diagrams, personal reflections, and creative exercises, this workbook helps you:

• Decode why some tasks feel impossible until they’re urgent.

• Reframe “inconsistency” as a predictable pattern — not a flaw.

• Create your own “owner’s manual” for motivation, energy, and focus.

Perfect for ADHDers and AuDHDers, this guide transforms frustration into fascination — helping you follow your brain’s natural curiosity instead of fighting it.
