Adult ADHD ADD Tips and Support Podcast - The Importance of Self-Care. This podcast is an audio companion to the book "The Drummer and the Great Mountain - A Guidebook to Transforming Adult ADD / ADHD."
Many of us have not taken the time to learn what our specific nervous system needs to function optimally. We tend to compare ourselves to others who aren't wired the same way we are, often pushing ourselves much too hard. This can lead to feeling emotionally dysregulated and overwhelmed on a regular basis.
And yet, in many situations, we have much more control than we realize.
In this episode, we'll discuss self-care strategies to help keep your nervous system calm so you can think more clearly and be more productive.

Many of us have not taken the time to learn what our specific nervous system needs to function optimally. We tend to compare ourselves to others who aren’t wired the same way we are, pushing past our limits to catch up, often leaving us dysregulated, overwhelmed, and burnt out.
In this episode, we’ll explore how to overcome analysis paralysis, decision fatigue, and "overthinking." We'll discuss why these challenges common for people with ADHD, and most importantly, we'll cover road-tested tips and tools that will make your decision-making process far more streamlined.
With ADHD, procrastination is our prime nemesis. If a task is not stimulating or urgent, it gets forgotten about, pushed out, or endlessly plagues us with guilt because we can't seem to get it done. All of this can create an immense amount of suffering and low self-esteem.
