ADHD RESEARCHERS ESTIMATE THAT BY AGE 12, CHILDREN WITH ADHD RECEIVE 20,000 MORE NEGATIVE MESSAGES ABOUT THEMSELVES THAN OTHER KIDS THEIR AGE.
🤷🏻♀️So is it any wonder that many of us grow up to develop imposter syndrome and low self-worth?
😕Couple this with Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria and it’s easy to become your own worst enemy.
💡In my own life I use a combination of DBT and CBT tools to help with these things….
🤷🏻♀️…But they still get the best of me at times.
🙂And that’s ok!
❤️I’m grateful I have my online ADHD fam to share and normalize these behaviors with.
❓How do you deal with imposter syndrome ?

PLEASE DON’T CONFUSE EXECUTIVE DYSFUNCTION WITH INTELLIGENCE…
💡I can’t stress this enough
😕There is so much shame and guilt that comes with a lifetime of ADHD and not fitting into the neurotypical box
🤷🏻♀️Many of us have colorful work and school histories due to our struggles with executive dysfunction
🦸🏻♀️Which is why it is so important to follow our strengths
🙌🏻Because we are super smart!
🤸🏻♀️And when in the right environment with the right support…
🔥We light the world on fire
(In a good way)
❓Are you following your strengths?

SOME DAYS MY ADHD BRAIN FEELS LIKE IT’S OWN SEPARATE ENTITY…
🤷🏻♀️And no matter what I do…
😕I can’t seem to get started
💡Before my late ADHD diagnosis and learning about the joys of executive dysfunction…
❌…I attributed this paralysis to laziness and lack of discipline
🤬I would be screaming at myself internally to just get up and do all the things I needed to do
😢So overtime my inner voice became cruel and shaming
🦸🏻♀️Which is why I embrace the ADHD label
🙂Because it’s far kinder than the ways I used to label myself
❓How do you deal with days when you struggle to get started?

IT CAN BE EASY TO LET THE ADHD TRAIN OF THOUGHT GET AWAY FROM US….
🔗We tend to make connections and jumps that neurotypical brains often don’t
📈Which is why our stories don’t tend to unfold in a linear fashion…
🤷🏻♀️…And the points of interest tend to change
🧠Add in a healthy portion of poor working memory issues…
📚…And even we have no idea how the story begins or ends
👯♀️Which is why it can be nice to hang around other ADHDers…
🤸🏻♀️…Who can better follow our leaps and jumps
🐇…And fall down the rabbit hole of unknown with us.

THE ADHD TAX LIVES ON EACH TIME I LEAVE THE SUPERMARKET…
🛍I now own about 50 of these cloth bags due to having to rebuy one each time I forget to bring one to the store
🤦🏻♀️ADHD life is full of great intentions that slightly miss the mark…
🧠Our brains are constantly swirling with brilliantly innovative ideas…
⚡️…But there is often a disconnect between abstract ideas and their physical execution.
👯♀️Which is why we tend to thrive in partnerships where our counterpart handles the routine details…
👩🏻🏫…Business or otherwise…
💡…So our mental energy is freed to dream up the next big idea

MANY ADHDERS STRUGGLE TO REMEMBER TO DRINK WATER…
🏝And when you live on a tropical island that averages 90% humidity and 90 degrees Fahrenheit …
😵This is less than ideal.
😵💫Dehydration can ramp up symptoms of brain fog, fatigue, poor concentration…
😡…And just a general feeling of irritation towards the world and everyone in it
🥤Over the years I’ve gone through hefty phases of drinking mostly Dr. Pepper and Coke Zero due to the carbonation being stimulating…
🥼…So it was not all that surprising when a doctor told me I was pre diabetic.
🧘🏻♀️…Now In an effort to live a healthier lifestyle…
🍹…I have acquired a repertoire of healthy powders I mix into my daily water…
🍉…And fresh fruit on the days I’m feeling particularly productive.
🍼I also have a fancy water bottle that keeps everything nice and cold.
🤷🏻♀️I still struggle to drink the suggested amount of water per day..
🎉But I’m getting better all the time
🦸🏻♀️And sometimes I even manage to string together a few days of greatness
❓How do you remember to stay hydrated?

ADHD CAN COME WITH A STRING OF UNHEALTHY COPING MECHANISMS…
👩🏻⚕️Particularly for those of us who received late diagnoses
🪧Over time we intuitively put into practice activities that help us manage our ADHD brain
✅Sometimes these things are healthy..
🧺Like intuitively realizing you get more laundry done when you’re talking on the phone to someone
❌Sometimes they are not…
🚬Like using cigarettes to stim when you are feeling stressed or anxious
🤷🏻♀️These maladaptive behaviors can also make it hard to identify what the actual problem is
👀So we end up focusing on treating the behaviors like substance misuse…
🦷Instead of finding the root of the problem
☮️And then wonder why…
🙋🏻♀️…despite our best efforts…
😕We aren’t able to find inner peace.
🍔I went to support groups for eating disorders
💊I went to support groups for substance misuse
🤗They helped as much as they were able..
🥼But it wasn’t until I received my late ADHD diagnosis…
🌲That I was finally able to treat the core problem
💡Because I actually knew what to treat
🏆And the changes I’m making feel lasting
🕊And I’m starting to get a taste of that inner peace

ADHD COMES WITH BIG EMOTIONS.
👼🏼Many of us female ADHDers have been conditioned to be well-behaved
🫁So our anger gets internalized
💣Until we explode or it comes out sideways in some other aspect of our lives
🧚🏻I used to think I didn’t get angry
💡Until someone shined a light on the fact that my childhood experiences led me to internalize my feelings
🤘🏼Now I make a point of trying to embrace those masculine emotions
💪And be ok with taking up a bit of space in this world
🤷🏻♀️It seems like an odd thing to feel empowered about
🤬But every time I honor my anger..
🦹♀️It feels like a small win for my inner child
❓Do you experience anger with your ADHD?
