This Tuesday we're looking at 2 of the biggest challenges for us ADHDers!
They sit at the HEART of many of our struggles!
Emotional (Dys)regulation and feelings of Overwhelm!
We'll touch on Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD), our quirky ways of trying to manage overwhelm, how it shows up differently at different times or in different situations.
The stories we make up about ourselves and the world to explain these things . . . and, of course, we'll look at ways of dealing with them that do work!
There's a strong argument that ADHD is primarily an Emotional Regulatory issue rather than a lack of Attention, Hyperactivity or even a Deficit at all.
There is also a HUGE overlap between Emotional Dysregulation and C-PTSD, which are mutually reinforcing and hugely destructive to Self-Esteem and Self-Efficacy. The most common struggles of ADHD people, Procrastination and Task Paralysis are the knock on effects of this cycle!
So please come to our session on Tuesday evening 7pm (exactly) to 8pm (-ish) where we can break all this jargon down into real experiences and look at real strategies to manage, minimise and understand these things!
Looking Forward to seeing you all!😊
