ADHD, autism and anxiety. Anxiety is a common problem for many neurodivergent people. In this video I'm talking about why we are more likely to experience anxiety. As well as sharing the strategies I use to manage my anxiety levels as an autistic/ADHD woman.
Today I chatted with Christa Holmans about some of the overlapping issues found in both anxiety disorders and autism and other neurodiversity conditions such as ADHD.
In this video, I discuss anxiety and worry. Although these are common symptoms in life, excessive worry is not. Worry is like blood pressure: you need a certain level to live, but too high a level can hurt you.
For those of us who have Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), anger is common and can be a big problem. In this video, Dr. Hallowell discusses ADHD and Anger, how to identify and watch out for your triggers and why now is a particularly tough time for people with ADHD.
I’ve never openly talked about or shared my experience with depression, but I’ve been feeling lately that I should share with you guys my experience in the hopes that I can help someone out there dealing with it.
