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

              Those of us with ADHD experience sensory overload when there is too much sensory stimuli in our environment for our brains to process.

              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!

              • 52 // Is My Anger Just Suppressed Emotions? | How Rejection Sensitivity in ADHD Plays a Role

                Growing up, I was often told things like “you’re too sensitive”, “don’t take it so personally”, “it’s not a big deal, stop taking everything so seriously”, and so on.

                Did those comments help? Of course not!

                They just made it worse and made me want to hide my true emotions (masking) to protect myself.

                But that can often lead to outburst of anger and frustration when we hold our emotions in.

                In today's episode, I will discuss how suppressing our emotions can lead to outbursts of anger, and what to do about it.
