When you ask ADHD adults about bullying, most people brace for childhood stories. Playground teasing. Name-calling. A few loud, painful memories they’ve learned to live with. But when we surveyed over 150 ADHD adults worldwide , what came back was something else entirely: It didn’t stop. And for many, it still hasn’t. ADHD Traits That Get Targeted Most ADHD adults weren’t bullied because they were “difficult.” They were bullied for being: Too loud Too emotional Too sensitive

If you’re an ADHD adult, chances are you've been called too much  more times than you can count. "Too emotional." "Too reactive." "Too sensitive." "Too dramatic." More than feeling things deeply...we feel everything, all at once . And there’s no volume knob. No dimmer switch. Just full blast. You can walk into a normal conversation and walk out needing silence, space, or a complete emotional reset… without knowing what even hit you. But here’s the truth that most people miss:

The ADHD adult can stare at the same task for days, maybe weeks. Frozen. Even when it matters. Even when it’s urgent. Even when they care . But then, suddenly at 11:47pm on a random Tuesday? They knock out the entire project in one shot. What just happened? The ADHD Brain Doesn’t Move on Importance. It Moves on Immediacy. It's not laziness or inconsistency. The ADHD brain doesn’t fire up until something feels  real enough to grab it. And “real enough” often means: A fast-appr

Anyone else feel like their brain is utterly fried from constant advertisements? Especially during the holiday season when BLACK FRIDAY , CYBER MONDAY , and END-OF-YEAR SALES are screamed in our faces. It's not that we're dramatic or “bad with money.” We’re likely just maxed out. And particularly for ADHD brains, this time of year hits especially hard. Between flooded inboxes, non-stop pop-ups, and flashy “final deals,” ADHD brains are under siege . And it’s not just annoyin

Ever forget to eat until you're hangry ? Not realize you’re exhausted until you utterly crash ? Have constant bumps and bruises from smacking limbs into furniture?

Ever find yourself caring less - about people, emotions, even your own values - then catch yourself thinking, “Am I turning into an a**hole?” You might just be burned out from years of mistreatment, masking, and running on an empty tank of emotional-protection. When you’ve been trained to override your own boundaries to keep the peace, stay likable, or just survive, there comes a point where your system taps out. ADHD brains are wired to feel deeply... Until they overload. Em

When we talk about ADHD, we often focus on attention, impulsivity, and executive function. But there’s an invisible wound that often goes unspoken: bullying , and the lifelong impact it can leave on those with ADHD. It’s Not Just “Thin Skin”... It’s Trauma Many ADHDers aren’t just bullied as children. The bullying follows them into adulthood: in workplaces, friendships, relationships, and even online. What may seem like simple teasing or conflict to some can be internalized d

If you’re an ADHDer who’s known as “the helpful one,” this might sound familiar... You say yes to everything . You avoid conflict . You’re the dependable one : always calm, always giving. You might even call it kindness . But what if that “kindness” is actually self-erasure? Let’s talk about ADHD, people pleasing, and the compassion fatigue that often follows. The Hidden Cost of Being "Easygoing" Many of us with ADHD grow up believing that being agreeable is a strength. We be

If you have ADHD and you’ve always been “the helper” in your circle - the one who jumps in, offers support, carries others’ emotions - you might already know how this story ends: Eventually, you're the one who’s quietly burning out . Why ADHDers Give So Much People with ADHD are often deeply compassionate. Not just kind, but tuned in  to the emotional temperature of others. This can come from years of being misunderstood ourselves. We know what it feels like to be criticized

“It wasn’t that I couldn’t get things done. It was that my motivation disappeared, my emotions went quiet… and I still blamed myself for not ‘trying harder.’” If you’ve ever felt this way, you’re not lazy, broken, or unmotivated. You might be experiencing ADHD burnout . What Is ADHD Burnout? ADHD burnout isn’t just “being tired.” It’s an emotional and cognitive shutdown that creeps in when your brain - already working overtime to keep up - finally hits a wall. And here’s the
