ADHD and AuDHD brains often feel things strongly and fast, so stress can build before you notice. The aim is not to feel less, but to spot it sooner and have a few things that help. Three to try:
1. Learn your early signs
A tight jaw, a short temper, a racing mind. Catching it early makes it far easier to manage.
2. Have a go-to reset
A few slow breaths, a short walk, or a glass of water away from the screen. Keep it small enough that you will actually do it.
3. Let some things wait
When everything feels urgent, very little is. Pick the one thing that matters most right now, and leave the rest for later.
Try one this week.
This is the sort of thing we work on together in coaching, at your pace, on Zoom. If you would like to explore it, the first step is a discovery session.
