Ever feel like you've hit the overshare button a bit too hard? 🙈 Living with ADHD can mean having a constant whirlwind of emotions and impulses, often leading to those cringe-worthy moments we'd rather forget.
But here's the thing: while it may feel like the world stops spinning, it keeps on turning. We're wired to feel everything intensely, including embarrassment, but in the grand scheme of things, people move on quicker than we think.
So, take a deep breath, forgive yourself, and remember, you're not alone in those 'oops' moments. 💫

Girls with ADHD often go undiagnosed until adulthood, while boys with ADHD are often prescribed stimulant medications earlier than girls, researchers have found.
The gender gap in diagnosis and treatment frequently leaves girls and women floundering. As a result, girls often struggle with their ADHD symptoms longer than boys do before receiving a diagnosis and treatment.

3 things to stop doing if you love someone with ADHD:
1. Complaining that we never turn off the lights when we leave a room
2. Asking how we don't notice we leave the cabinet doors open
3. Saying I already told you that
Understanding and supporting someone with ADHD involves refraining from complaints about seemingly trivial matters like leaving lights on or cabinet doors open, as these behaviors are often symptomatic of the condition rather than intentional negligence
Instead of repeatedly asking how they don't notice these things, it's important to recognize the cognitive differences associated with ADHD that affect their attention and awareness.
Avoiding phrases like "I already told you that" acknowledges the challenges they face with memory and organization, fostering a more compassionate and supportive environment for your loved one.

If you have adhd and you tell yourself you're lazy 🛑 STOP. I know it's easier said than done- trust me.
Your body is tired and it's telling you it needs to rest. Are you the person someone/people bring emotional problems to? Do you pour yourself into someone who doesn't reciprocate? Are you someone who tries to keep the peace by staying silent?
Some additional reasons not in the reel could include
🔴 Maintaining one-sided friendships/relationships
🔴 Trying tonsave people from themselves
🔴 Giving people endless chances at your expense.
Maybe, just maybe you're not lazy. Maybe your body is exhausted and needing rest from the wonderful person you are to others. Let it.
❓️ Do you have a habit of calling yourself lazy?
❓️ What do you think could be causing your body to need rest so badly?

Somedays I really hate my ADHD. Today is just a prime example.
People with ADHD are often incredible people pleasers, driven by their empathy and desire to connect. However, it's essential you remember to love yourself just as passionately.
Self-care isn't selfish; it's a necessity for your well-being. Embrace self-love and kindness, because you deserve it too! 💙

Dissociation involves losing touch with your immediate surroundings. If you have ADHD, you may be more likely to experience dissociation, particularly if you have also been exposed to trauma.
For some people, this can take the form of becoming so absorbed in a book, movie, or other imaginary world that you become less self-aware and oblivious to the outside world. This phenomenon is referred to as dissociative absorption. (All true and real)
I'm likely to go to my imaginary world where Nick Saban isn't leaving me yet. It's not the reality I want to live in at the moment 😆.
