Anxiety, the tightness in your chest, shoulders rising up toward your ears, dry mouth, sweaty palms, heart pounding…sound / feel familiar? Anxiety goes hand-in-hand with ADHD, the flip into fight/flight/freeze when you feel overwhelmed, when you tell yourself you are not measuring up (again), when you worry you will fail again. Negative self-talk and fear of what will happen triggers cortisol, the stress response hormone which gears your brain up for action. Cortisol also cuts off the pathways to the think-things-through parts of your brain, the executive function part. Constant stress keeps cortisol levels high, interfering with thought processing, memory, attention and keeping hypervigilance going. That is exhausting !
