It’s a rollercoaster

AmmiRight? XO, Dr. Jen #adhd

5/3 Edited to

... Read moreLiving with ADHD often feels like an ongoing rollercoaster, where your need for structure clashes with your craving for novelty. One day, sticking to a routine can feel like a lifeline, providing comfort and stability. However, this very routine can quickly become monotonous, leading to a hunger for excitement and stimulation. Yet, when faced with new or high-energy situations, the overwhelm and overstimulation follow, making you crave the calm once again. From personal experience, finding balance in this cycle can be challenging but rewarding. One strategy is to build flexible routines that incorporate moments of novelty—like trying a new hobby or changing your environment in small ways—without overwhelming your system. Mindfulness and grounding practices can also help manage the distress caused by overstimulation. Connecting with communities that understand ADHD provides valuable support and shared coping techniques. Remember, this push and pull between routine and excitement is a common ADHD trait, not a failing. Embracing the rollercoaster with self-compassion makes navigating daily life more manageable and even empowering.

A newborn baby with an ID band on its wrist sleeps peacefully, wrapped in a white blanket with colorful patterns. The image is overlaid with the title 'What I Wish I Knew About the Newborn Phase'.
A newborn baby sleeps soundly, swaddled in a patterned blanket and wearing a striped hat. Overlays discuss 'Sleep Isn't Linear' and 'You Don't Have to Do It All' for first-time moms.
A newborn baby with wide eyes looks towards the camera, wearing a striped onesie and a matching hat. Overlays discuss 'The Baby Doesn't Need Everything—But I Do' and 'Feeding Is a Learning Curve'.
What I wish I knew as a First Time Mom
Oh, there’s so much I wish I had known about the newborn phase before I was in the thick of it! If I could go back and give myself a little pep talk, it would sound something like this: ⸻ 1. Sleep Isn’t Linear (and That’s Okay) I thought once my baby “slept through the night,” we were set.
