Anxiety and rumination are common with ADHD. Why? And what can be done about it?
Simply put, we have problems with controlling our focus. So when we’re enthused about something, thoughts ricochet here, there, and everywhere as we come up with wonderful possibilities. Each is better than the one before.
But a worrying thought can just as easily trigger terrible possibilities. Each worse than the one before.
My ability to turn a mild concern into a paralyzing panic was impressive. But now, knowing this escalation is the result of my ADHD allowed me to seek out and find strategies to interrupt the rising fear and nip it in the bud.
It starts with noticing the physical signs, the rising sense of mild terror and then simply taking a series of slow, deep breaths.
