Do You Recognize Yourself Here?
- You’re newly diagnosed with ADHD, and you feel mixed about that — partly relieved, partly hopeful, but maybe embarrassed (or even ashamed) because of the negative judgement, misunderstanding, and stigma. Plus you feel overwhelmed.
- You’re successful in your job, but home feels like another story. You start one project, then get distracted by two or three others, so none of them get done. There are piles of paper you want to organize, but something or someone else always seems to need your attention. Sorting the piles feels overwhelming or mind-numbing.
- You are taking care of a lot. When you give yourself credit, you recognize how capable you are and how much you’re getting done. However, you feel stressed and frustrated with competing priorities. The details seem endless, and your life feels like a never-ending to-do list that has sucked the joy out of your life. There’s so much to do that you don’t have any time or energy left for fun.
- Your experience has shown you that exercise helps you feel calmer and focus better, but you’re not as consistent as you’d like to be. You want more ways to focus without taking meds.
- You’re a successful professional and enjoy the challenge of managing people or projects. However, the rest of the world has no idea how hard you work to keep it all together. You’re intelligent, so your difficulty with seemingly simple things makes no sense to you — staying on top of bills, not running out of clean clothes, getting needed appointments scheduled, or keeping papers organized.
- You’ve been through a major change in your life. You had a routine that was working for you, but it has been completely disrupted by the change in routine. The stress has left you feeling more emotional than usual. You feel hopeful and confident one day, but the next day you find yourself crying or feeling anxious for no apparent reason. The healthy habits you worked so hard to establish have disappeared, and you are struggling to put them back into place, or you don’t even have the energy to try.
This approach works for amazing women who:
- May not give themselves credit for their own strengths and talents
- May or may not have an ADHD diagnosis
- May or may not take an ADHD med
This approach is likely to be a good match if:
- You care deeply — about people or issues like social justice or the environment.
- You get excited about learning new things.
- You are determined.
- You find creative ways to do something.
- You appreciate nature, beauty, or color.
- You value honesty when it is expressed compassionately.
