15. What to do when you're stuck DOOM SCROLLING

Your ADHD Besties

Hiii ADHD cuties tuning in from what is now 104 countries! 🤯😘
On today's show:
• Grace has 3 very important updates that she's bursting to tell us
• Are we still in burnout? What's been helping us climb out of it?? Has Tara got a refund for her marathon registration yet? (The answer won’t surprise you) What change-room moment saw Grace making an ‘ADHD math' speech to convince her husband? And WHAT did Tara snatch out of Grace's box? THESE ARE THE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT QUESTIONS WE NEED ANSWERS TO.
• Dilemma #1 - An adorable anonymous listener asks for advice on RSD (rejection sensitivity dysphoria) around dating: she's a late-blooming lesbian going back into the dating world in her 40s and struggling with overthinking and texting RSD (hi it me 🙋‍♀️) 🫠
• Dilemma #2 - A cute listener called Kelsi asks a double-barrelled dilemma (we LOVE!) about 'hermit mode': being stuck on the couch doom scrolling and lacking the motivation to go outside, AND ALSO the never-ending parade of crafty hobbies she starts and never finishes.
• This week's Ireggy Seggy is our new fave, called "TPR", where we pick famous TV characters and ponder whether they are a Timon, Pumba or Rafiki... the robust, scientific discussion we're always proud to bring you on the podcast. 🤓
REC LINKS:
• Tara recommends PVD tarnish-free, waterproof jewellery as an excellent and affordable option compared to gold jewellery. Brands she loves: Hey Harper, Bohomoon and Atolea.
• Grace recommends all 3 of the Hannah Gadsby Netflix comedy specials, especially Nanette.
We'll be back with a SPECIAL SURPRISE next Thursday babes!
Until then... your ADHD besties,
👱🏻‍♀️ Grace & 👩🏻‍🦱 Tara xx
(Don't RSDDD!)
