"Why do emotions feel so 'big' and overwhelming?
For late-diagnosed women, the struggle with ADHD emotional regulation is often the most exhausting part of the day.
Part 2 of the Compass series dives deep into the emotional landscape of ADHD, moving beyond simple 'mood swings' to address the physiological reality of your nervous system.
This guide provides a roadmap for ADHD emotional regulation, helping you understand the 'why' behind the shame and giving you the 'how' to find your way back to calm.
What’s Included:
Demystifying RSD: A deep dive into Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria and that crushing sensation of 'failing' or disappointing others.
The Shame Spiral: Understanding why we feel intense guilt for things beyond our control and how to break the loop.
Nervous System Regulation: Practical, physical strategies to 'cool' a hot nervous system when you feel overstimulated.
Communication Tools: How to explain your emotional needs to others without feeling like a burden or 'too much.'
The Disappointment Factor: Understanding why the fear of letting people down is a neurological trait, not a character flaw."
