[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] This behavior sounds like perseveration, which is present in many neurodivergent profiles, notably high-functioning autism.[/quote] Interesting. Not sure if linked, but she has ADHD that is unmedicated because of a medical condition. [/quote] That might explain some of it in the sense that she's so impulsive she has to push even though she probably knows on some level it's not appropriate. If you say something, she might be able to restrain herself that day, but it's all going to come roaring back tomorrow. This is why diagnoses are given, when the behavior impacts daily functioning. You might want to double check the medical condition; often patients use that as an excuse not to medicate. Maybe a low dose of stimulants might work, or she can try non-stimulants like Guanfacine.
