If you’ve ever ended the day totally exhausted but have no idea what you actually did — this one’s for you.

In this episode of ADHD Adult(ish), we’re talking about the invisible workload that ADHD brains carry 24/7. From the endless mental tabs and open loops to the emotional clutter and random thoughts that won’t leave you alone, it’s no wonder you’re tired — even when nothing “looks” hard from the outside.

We’ll break down:

  • Why ADHD brains struggle to filter distractions
  • What makes “easy” tasks not easy for us
  • How all that internal noise adds up to serious mental fatigue
  • And a few ADHD-friendly strategies to clear the clutter without burning out

Because sometimes the most important thing you can do ... is just get it out of your head.
