Emotional dysregulation and RSD are two of the most challenging elements of ADHD, yet it's often not flagged up when we first learn about ADHD.
In this week's episode, Kate talks to Marcy Caldwell, a clinical psychologist and passionate ADHD advocate based in Philadelphia, PA. Marcy is the founder of ADDept.org, a blog and digital resource helping adults with ADHD create a life that works for, not against, their brains.
During today's episode, Kate and Marcy speak about:
- Noticing your stress markers
- Recognising how YOUR emotions work
- Overstimulation and noise
- Strategies to help emotional dysregulation
- How emotions can derail us
- How habit changes and awareness can help us with overstimulation
- Using EFT tapping to help emotional dysregulation
- How your emotional patterns can play out
- What is RSD, and how does it show up in ADHD?
- The impact RSD has on our emotions, productivity and beliefs
- Tips for tracking our cycles, noticing when we're more vulnerable and regulating emotions
- Honouring ourselves during our more sensitive times and carving out time on our own
