Many of us with ADHD tend to be collectors.  Collectors of everything from rescue dogs to creative projects to information.  The ease of acquiring information in the digital age makes it close to impossible to know when we have collected enough.  Is there any objective measure of when “research” turns into a rabbit hole? 


Add to this tendency the fact that we often struggle with FOMO and the pervasive sense that we are not doing enough, are falling behind, aren’t where we are supposed to be and generally not keeping up.  


FOMO renders us more susceptible to experiencing RSD (rejection sensitive dysphoria) because we are more vulnerable to criticism when we are already criticizing ourselves.  


So, in this insightful episode, I describe the intersections between ADHD, FOMO, RSD and information overload, with the goal of normalizing how common this is, how much anxiety and stress it causes, and what we can do to manage it. 


Here’s a sneak peek to what you’ll learn: 

• Understand how impulsivity and novelty seeking sets us up to become social media junkies.
• How to set boundaries and prevent information overload and overwhelm.
• Boredom, loneliness, and isolation are triggers for FOMO - learn to recognize and tackle them head-on.
• From mindfulness to mini-breaks, discover actionable steps to combat FOMO in real time.
• The often overlooked link between FOMO and RSD - let’s learn to protect our sensitivity 


Hey, we all struggle with social comparisons and the need for validation, but it’s incredibly important to focus on meaningful experiences with people who genuinely care about us. 


This episode is packed with strategies that not only help you combat FOMO and RSD but also ensure that you live a more connected and purposeful life.
