Home › Welcome to the ADDitude Forums › For Adults › Emotions & Shame › Newly (self) diagnosed and need to shareHi Everyone I recently looked up ADHD as my friend has been diagnosed with it and to my surprise I fitted so many of the symptoms that I had the realisation (at 57!) that I had an explanation for many things about me.

The elements that have held my life back are very powerful adrenalin rushes when in stressful situations, that has led to avoidance of interviews and giving talks, refusing being best man etc I have very few friends even though I am reasonably personable and never really understood it.

Handling Self Sabotage & Anxiety
1. Its ok to not be ok !  - I believe we need to change the expectation that we must always have a smile on and be ok 24/7 , it’s ok to have sad moments and it’s ok to acknowledge that you aren’t 100% today.2. Self Awareness & Intuition - I believe that a lot of people especially highly sensitive people (Where are my empaths at? ) Have incredible intuition ability , we know when something is off or if we are not in the mood, I believe in owning this power! Self awareness is also key , being aware of what is going on with you is a beautiful gift to have! 3. Shut out that inner saboteur  - One of my coping mechanism of anxious self doubt thoughts, is telling that saboteur, “Be Quiet”.

Self-reflection is a helpful for revealing our blind spots.  We should live to promote equality, justice, and kindness.  The world needs this effort from each of us now more than ever.Self-reflection, simply put, is thinking about thinking.  It is how you articulate your inner-dialogue and the beliefs which shape your actions. self-reflection allows you to evaluate whether your beliefs are consistent with the type of person you want to be.  Here are three self-reflection exercises I have found to be extremely helpful.You may be living according to someone else’s operating system.  We are products of both vertical and horizontal identities.  Vertical aspects are inherited from circumstances of birth —the language you speak, your ethnicity or

Forget Self-Discipline and Willpower, Focus on This Instead
Russell Minick says, “The Story we operate from is the single most powerful factor in character development, not willpower.”Your personal narrative is the story that shapes your view of the world and directs your behaviors. Your ability to exercise self-discipline and willpower is dependent upon the script you’re telling yourself.A study by Timothy Wilson, professor of psychology at the University of Virginia, took a group of college freshmen who struggled academically and felt intellectually inadequate.

What Suicide Loss Survivors Need From You
March 27, 2020 was a perfect day. My whole family was together because, thanks to COVID, both my school and my brother’s school had gone remote. We had stayed up late the night before playing cards and eating takeout from Olive Garden, and got to sleep in that morning. We had lunch together, eating leftovers and watching “How I Met Your Mother.” We went for a walk that afternoon, and talked about nothing and everything. It was the perfect day — until it wasn’t. Until I went to get my brother for dinner and found him. Until my mom and I got him down and I started CPR. Until the paramedics arrived and tried to resuscitate him for 45 minutes. Until they stopped trying, and we were told that my baby brother had died by suicide.

We Need More Characters With Chronic Illnesses and Disabilities in Fiction
Can you remember the last book you read that featured a character with a disability that wasn’t central to the plot? What about a Black character, or a gay character, where their race or sexuality wasn’t the highlight of the story? And, most importantly, when was the last time you felt represented by a novel? Has a book made you feel seen lately? I hope the answer is yes, but all too often, books are sadly lacking in diversity.

I Am Not 'Lazy,' I Have a Sleep Disorder
When I was in middle school, I was the kid that rushed to finish classwork so I could take a quick nap in class. Teachers wondered why I was so tired at school, but they didn’t look into it. While my classmates made my constant sleepiness into a nickname and started calling me “Grandma.” At home, I struggled to find time to do homework because my body constantly wanted to sleep, and ignoring it made me feel worse. My parents thought I was tired because of my schoolwork and chores, but I felt tired even without doing anything.

4 Self-Advocacy Tips for Making Medical Appointments Mutually Beneficial

More so when they are well-known for their specialty, condescending or simply seem to disengage when their beliefs don’t align with your reality. Be it the first greeting or a routine meeting, each time can feel overwhelming, being put on the stand to have your reality examined by someone who only has the slightest glimpse into what goes on beyond what they can see and who may never truly comprehend what it feels like to be you or me.

I grew up in a depressed state and grew into my anxiety, which didn’t present until I became a mother.

Presumably, I’d be able to handle another mental illness without help, just like I had survived my depression without meds or counseling in the years leading up to my daughter’s birth. Presumably, my having postpartum depression as the cherry on top would just pass in the same waves my garden variety biological depression had.
