#55 ADHD & Emotions

Navigating Adult ADHD

Emotions dysregulation is one of the ADHD symptoms that has the biggest affect on our lives.  And here's why:

  • When we don't manage our emotions, they manage us. 
  • When we don't know how to respond to them, we react
  • Our emotions drive all of our actions. 

Emotions are everything! 
When we take action (this includes procrastination) it’s because of how we feel.
When we are watching Netflix & scrolling on Instagram, it's not because we are lazy. 
It’s because of an emotion we are feeling.

And here's the best news: Emotional regulation is a skill we can learn.
