Before I knew I had ADHD  | MY ADHD JOURNEY • PART 1

<p>Before Jenny knew she had ADHD, she believed she was difficult, too emotional and somehow always getting life wrong. In this episode she shares how years of masking, overthinking and self-doubt shaped the way she saw herself, and why understanding her neurodivergent brain changed everything. If you&#39;ve ever wondered why you feel different or constantly blame yourself, this episode offers a compassionate new perspective. </p><ul><li><p>Why do people with ADHD feel like they&#39;re too much?</p></li><li><p>What is ADHD masking?</p></li><li><p>Why do I always feel different from everyone else?</p></li><li><p>Can ADHD cause low self-esteem?</p></li><li><p>Why do I overthink everything?</p></li><li><p>Why do I feel emotionally exhausted all the time?</p></li><li><p>What does ADHD masking look like?</p></li><li><p>Why do I constantly blame myself?</p></li><li><p>Can undiagnosed ADHD affect confidence?</p></li><li><p>Why do I always feel like I&#39;m getting life wrong?</p></li><li><p>Why do I struggle to fit in?</p></li><li><p>Why does understanding ADHD help self-belief?</p></li><li><p>Can ADHD affect your nervous system?</p></li><li><p>Why do I feel overwhelmed so easily?</p></li><li><p>How do I stop believing I&#39;m the problem?</p></li></ul><ul><li><p>Self understanding</p></li><li><p>ADHD masking</p></li><li><p>Nervous system</p></li><li><p>Hidden exhaustion</p></li><li><p>Different perspective</p></li></ul><p><strong>Next week in Part 2...</strong></p><p>Jenny shares the moment everything began to change. She attended a conference about neurodivergence hoping to better understand her eldest son, but instead found herself recognising her own experiences in almost everything she heard.<strong>Remember:</strong> Sometimes the greatest shift isn&#39;t discovering who you are. It&#39;s letting go of who you believed you had to be.</p><p>You can spend years asking, <em>&quot;What&#39;s wrong with me?&quot;</em> But self-understanding begins when you start asking a different question:</p><p><strong>&quot;What if I&#39;ve been judging myself through other people&#39;s eyes?&quot;</strong></p><p>_____________________________________________________________</p><p><strong>This episode begins a new series exploring Jenny&#39;s ADHD journey, self-understanding and what can change when you realise there may never have been anything wrong with you in the first place. </strong></p><p>Jenny&#39;s recent <strong>Blame</strong> series explored why we so often take responsibility for things that were never ours to carry, and how easy it is to believe we&#39;re the problem. </p><p><strong>Listen to the Blame Series here:</strong> <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/2BbqcCEpKA9kVOs46RiX1I?si=DuX_3KSKTHKNchM6eWegAw"><em>https://open.spotify.com/episode/2BbqcCEpKA9kVOs46RiX1I?si=DuX_3KSKTHKNchM6eWegAw</em></a></p><p>Jenny&#39;s <strong>Judgement</strong> series explores how fear of being judged, self-judgement and other people&#39;s opinions can quietly shape the way we see ourselves. </p><p><strong>Listen to the Judgement Series here: </strong><a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/64rs54mfdFqX0oWF62d44J?si=mnFwfCW8SvC8Q_9oCTI9kA"><u>https://open.spotify.com/episode/64rs54mfdFqX0oWF62d44J?si=mnFwfCW8SvC8Q_9oCTI9kA</u></a></p><p><strong>💜 Something special is here!</strong></p><p>If you’ve been noticing the same thoughts, reactions, or emotional patterns repeating in your life, Jenny’s free Continued Writing session may help you understand what’s happening underneath them.</p><p>Jenny will guide you through a gentle continued writing exercise designed to help you uncover subconscious patterns, emotional responses, and automatic behaviours that are often difficult to see on your own.
