Episode ADHD Expert: Why You Feel Motivated But Can't Do Anything
If you’ve ever wondered why a simple conversation can feel so overwhelming with ADHD, this episode is for you. Dr. Sasha Hamdani joins me to explain what’s really happening inside the ADHD brain—and how it impacts emotions, rejection, relationships, and communication.
We talk about why everything can feel “louder,” why feedback can hit so hard, and practical ways to communicate without shutting down, spiraling, or becoming overwhelmed.
Buy Dr. Hamdani’s new book: Too Sensitive – Rejection, Resilience, and the Science of Feeling Deeply – http://us.macmillan.com/books/9781250423764/toosensitive/
