What Emotional Flooding Feels Like for Me at Work

In this episode, I’m talking about emotional flooding at work and what it feels like for me as someone with ADHD and autism. I share how misunderstanding, conflict, masking, and nervous system overload can affect my processing, my body, and the rest of my day. I also talk about what helps me move through it and why context and thoughtful communication matter so much at work.Chapter:00:00 What emotional flooding is for me01:46 What happens in my body03:32 Masking while overwhelmed05:08 Why I need verbal processing06:46 Spiraling and trying not to react08:10 The crash afterward08:58 When more context changes everything10:43 Why this matters at workResources mentioned:Substack: [link]Coaching: [link]Workbook: [link]Caroline Maguire: [link]Bridget’s post: [link]
