53. ADHD & social media addiction: Why it FEELS IMPOSSIBLE to stop doomscrolling

Hiiii besties!Today on the podcast we are discussing ADHD and social media/phone addiction. We share our theory as to why ADHDers often find their communities online, why we get stuck in dopamine DOOM SCROLL loops. We talk about how we are attempting to create digital boundaries for ourselves (while still being kind to our ADHD brains) and what might help us to get a bit more of our time back from Marky Mark Zuck and his sneaky ways. 🫠 Ireggy Seggy (tiiiimeeee): We almost reignite top sheet-gate as we ask each other the important ‘living together’ questions that every pair of besties needs to iron out if they want to go on a trip together. Thankfully we agree that toilet paper must be over (obviously) and Grace even treats us to an explanation of the aerodynamics. 🤌 RECS:Grace recs a genius phone shortcut and her fave binaural scientific sleep music Tara recs a podcast called Boring history for sleep Don’t forget you can WATCH this episode as a video podcast on YouTubeWe will be back in your diabolically stunning little neurodivergent ears in two weeks time. Love love love Gracey baby and Tata----------------------------🦋 WANT MORE ADHD BESTIES?
