Description: What if your ADHD symptoms are being amplified because you're stuck in survival mode? What if the reason life feels so overwhelming is because your system thinks you're in danger when you're actually just... living? In this episode, I break down what's happening in your body when you're in survival mode vs. when you're regulated. It's not just a mindset. It's biological. When you're in fight or flight, your executive functioning goes down, your energy burns out fast, and you're stuck in freeze, scattered, or constant reaction. When you regulate, your capacity expands, symptoms lessen, and you can actually be present in your life.
