E54: RSD, Emotional impulsivity and ADHD

The Christina Crowe Podcast: Making the invisible VISIBLE

Today, I have a re-play for you of one of my first solo episodes tackling the inner emotional experiences of some of us with ADHD brains.

I’m coming to you solo, talking about the intense emotional experiences of the ADHD brain, and how to make communication more intentional and mindful.

In this episode, I talk about:

• What parts of our brain are implicated in both emotional regulation and ADHD?

• Where are the places in our lives we see the impact of ADHD- associated emotional dysregulation?

• Why are difficult conversations harder for people with ADHD?

• How can a “we-first” versus “me-first” perspective build your communication skills?
