Do your deep thoughts turn in to thought spirals?

Today we’re talking about rumination: what it is, when it’s a problem, and what to do when your thoughts turn anxious, negative, or obsessive. 

I used to spend a lot of my energy what if-ing, worrying, and planning for the 37 possibilities that could possibly occur. If this is you, too, you don’t have to stay in that thought prison! 

Let’s talk about how rumination interplays with ADHD, how to use it for your good, and what to do when it turns into a problem.

 

Work with Patricia to get unstuck, exceed your goals, and be happy with ADHD.
