ADHD OR PTSD(trauma response)???
In a lot of podcasts, talk shows, tiktoks etc people seem to always link ADHD with a childhood trauma. Me being diagnosed with severe ADHD and no childhood trauma, it really caused me to wonder if I was blocking out something.🥲 I thought I had a great childhood. I feel my parents did their best.

Pieces of Me: Rebuilding After Trauma
There are moments in life that change everything in an instant. In 2013, I went through something no one should ever have to endure. I’m not here to share the details, I never want to traumatize anyone, but I do want to talk about what happened after, and how the healing has unfolded since then.

I wish more people knew that when there are emotions that go unresolved and unaddressed, they don't just magically vanish out of nowhere... but in reality, they get stored deeply in our bodies, where it then feels as though we get anxiety "out of nowhere" or for "no reason.&#3
