In part two of Things I Feel Too Embarrassed To Admit About ADHD, I go even deeper into the emotional, exhausting, overwhelming, and sometimes heartbreaking realities of living with ADHD and AuDHD.

This episode explores the hidden shame many neurodivergent people carry around executive dysfunction, emotional overwhelm, burnout, masking, overstimulation, self-doubt, rejection sensitivity, and feeling emotionally “behind” in life.

I talk openly about:

✨ ADHD shame spirals

✨ burnout & mental exhaustion

✨ masking and emotional masking

✨ feeling overwhelmed by basic tasks

✨ waiting mode & paralysis

✨ emotional dysregulation

✨ feeling misunderstood

✨ grieving the version of yourself you thought you’d become

✨ the invisible exhaustion of trying to function every day

This is an honest, vulnerable, voice-note style ADHD reflection for neurodivergent adults who are tired of pretending they’re coping better than they are.

If your brain constantly feels overloaded, emotionally chaotic, exhausted, or stuck in survival mode… this episode will probably make you feel very seen. 💜

Topics include:

ADHD, AuDHD, executive dysfunction, ADHD burnout, masking, emotional dysregulation, overstimulation, neurodivergent overwhelm, late diagnosed ADHD, ADHD paralysis, mental exhaustion, rejection sensitivity, and nervous system overwhelm.
