Feeling overwhelmed by all the sights, sounds and smells? You're not alone!

The result? ADHD overstimulation that can cause anxiety, packing, lashing out or freezing - and who wants to be experiencing any of those?!

In today's episode, I will talk about what overstimulation (sensory overload) in ADHD is, what triggers it and what to do about it. 

Let's get into it!
