ADHD and how guilt hijacks your brain

For people with ADHD, guilt can feel like a full-time job you never signed up for.  In this episode, Dr. J digs into why your brain keeps hitting replay on minor mistakes, why “I shouldn’t have said that” can echo for hours, and how emotional overdrive makes tiny errors feel enormous.  You’ll get clear strategies to pause, notice patterns, and respond without spiraling.  For more on this topic  Listen: ADHD and shame Read: The 3 areas of executive function Try: ADHD Unstuck (a free self-guided activity) For a transcript and more resources, visit MissUnderstood on Understood.org.
