S1 E24 The ADHD Woman With Unlimited Capacity Never Existed: Good Enough Vs. Fuck It
Angry On The Inside - ADHD Women Talking Late DiagnosisShow Notes
Many ADHD women grow up operating as if they have unlimited capacity pushing past limits until stopping only happens at shutdown.
In this episode of Angry on the Inside, Jess and Jeannine break down the difference between “good enough” and “fuck it.” One is a conscious choice rooted in pacing and self-trust. The other happens after capacity is exceeded and the nervous system collapses.
They explore over functioning, burnout, perfectionism, and why stopping before collapse isn’t failure it’s a boundary.
Explicit language. Honest conversation. No fixes, no hacks, just clarity.
