Cohort 3: Closing Cirlce is happening in 13 hours
why would anyone listen to you? I would. I need to learn to be a nicer friend to myself.
Just completed all 5 sections of the Awakening Assessment (4th time!?!) and I realized the "biggest barrier" to the work I'm meant to do isn't skill or ideas - it's a self-doubting part of me whispering "why would anybody listen to you?" Turns out the thing I do without noticing the hours pass is exactly the gift I keep talking myself out of sharing. Soon I'll have a look at the full report. I must say, doing this process more than once is, at least for me, very very helpful.
How do you handle family who think ADHD is just an excuse?
I'd love to hear from people who've been here. My kids don't really believe ADHD is a real thing. When my brain shuts down, or I can't get something done, the message I get is basically "you're being lazy, just push through." I know I'm not lazy. I know what's actually happening in my brain, but hearing it from your own kids hits in a place that just doesn't feel good at all. I've tried to explain it to them, and I'm starting to think maybe explaining isn't the answer...but I don't really know what is. So I'm asking: how have you handled this with family members who don't get it? Did anyone ever come around? Did you find a way to stop letting their judgment land so hard? Did you give up trying to convince them and just focus on your own work? I'd love to know what worked and what didn't.
My Snapshot
Just got my ADHD Snapshot and one thing finally clicked. The frustration I've been bottling up since I was a kid? It's not separate from my anxiety loop - it's the fuel for it. And that gap I could never explain, the high energy for some things but zero motivation for daily tasks, turns out it's brain wiring, not laziness. Naming it out loud already feels like the first real step.
A Simple Question ๐Ÿ’™
Have you ever noticed what happens to your tinnitus when you slow down and take a few deep breaths? Not because the sound disappears. But because you change. Your shoulders relax. Your body softens. Your nervous system gets the message that you're safe. I've noticed that on stressful days, tinnitus often feels bigger, louder, and more demanding. But when I pause, breathe, and give my nervous system a chance to settle, the sound often takes up less space in my awareness. ๐Ÿค Breathwork may not magically remove tinnitus, but it can change how we experience it. I'm curious... ๐Ÿ’ฌ Have you noticed any changes in your tinnitus after breathwork, meditation, or intentional breathing? Let's learn from each other's experiences. ๐ŸŒฟโœจ
There is a grief hidden in and amongst my clutter
Hello everyone xx I've been trying to clear clutter from my house lately and what I'm discovering is that some clutter isn't really clutter at all. It's old versions of ourselves. Projects we once cared about. Dreams we thought we'd pursue. Hobbies we no longer have time for. Plans that never quite unfolded the way we imagined. Sometimes letting go of an object feels easy but letting go of the story attached to it is harder. I've realised there is quite a lot of grief hidden amongst my clutter, which makes the task so much harder. Have you ever found that when you're clearing a space, you're also letting go of a version of yourself? How do you do it?
