"Don't Mind Me, I Just Have ADHD!"

ADHD and the New Year Trap: Escaping Comparison and Shame


Listen Later

Episode 053: As the New Year begins, many people with ADHD find themselves trapped in comparison, self-doubt, and quiet resentment—wondering why life seems easier for everyone else.

In this powerful episode of Don’t Mind Me, I Just Have ADHD, Ron explores envy as the hidden thief of joy, especially for ADHD brains already battling rejection sensitivity, emotional overwhelm, and the pressure to keep up.

Drawing from Scripture, psychology, and lived experience, this episode unpacks:

Why ADHD makes comparison and envy more intense
How hustle culture is fueled by envy
The spiritual cost of people-pleasing and comparison
Why contentment is learned—not automatic
How gratitude, trust, and staying in your lane restore peace
What God says about worth, calling, and purpose for neurodivergent minds

This is not an episode about trying harder.
It’s an invitation to stop competing, stop comparing, and start living free.

If you’re entering the New Year feeling behind, discouraged, or quietly exhausted—this conversation may change how you see yourself, God, and your purpose.
