Ever catch yourself yelling—not at someone, but toward them—because your emotions are just too big to hold in? I’ve been there, more times than I can count. This week on AVHD, I’m digging into what happens when our ADHD brains bring those messy, overwhelming feelings into our closest relationships. Here’s what we’re talking about: The difference between yelling toward vs. yelling at How ADHD impacts emotional regulation and what that means for relationships Practical ways to pause, process, and repair when things get intense Big feelings are part of who we are, but they don’t have to define how we show up for the people we care about. It’s not about shutting those feelings down—it’s about learning how to navigate them in ways that strengthen connections. The challenge this week? Take a pause the next time you feel those emotions bubbling over. Reflect on how you want to respond and let me know how it goes. Listen to the episode now wherever you get your podcasts. Let’s figure this out together. What’s the hardest part for you when it comes to managing emotions? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
