ADHD in Women and Girls: Why This is Not a Fad But a Cry for Help and Better Care
|
Hello Reader, If you have ever felt like you are capable and caring, but constantly behind, scattered, overwhelmed by anxiety that fights against your faith, or defeated by being accused that you’re too _____ (sensitive, emotional, inconsiderate, bossy, etc), then this episode is for you. We are talking about ADHD in women and girls, and why this isn’t a fad but a cry for help and better care. ADHD has gone undiagnosed in girls for far too long, dismissed by the stereotype of hyperactivity as it is seen in boys. In fact, one might say that where girls are underdiagnosed, boys are overdiagnosed. But for this episode, we focus on how ADHD presents in a female, why it is often missed, what is actually happening in the brain, and the practical supports that can make everyday life feel more manageable.
Consider this your high-level overview seasoned with hope and encouragement to continue the exploration of ADHD and how it may be affecting you or the women and girls in your life. If this resonates, share it with a friend who has been carrying shame or confusion. There is hope, and there are next steps. Join me in becoming StableMinded and living life with purpose by tuning into this episode for insight and encouragement! Still becoming, Founder of StableMinded.us P.S.

Hello Reader, There’s a quiet belief many of us carry: “I’ll deal with it later.” Later, when life slows down. Later, when it hurts less. Later, when we have more capacity. But pain that gets postponed doesn’t disappear. It gets stored.

Hello Reader, Are you ready to embrace a new season of spiritual, emotional, and relational growth? If so, then I have something I believe will meet you right where you are! I'm so excited to share with you that the Evergreen "Retreat-in-a-Box" and Bible Study is here! I am humbled and grateful for the ease with which the Lord birthed this message during a season of deep pruning and learning to abide (still in progress, by the way). This is the bittersweetness of living between Eden and...
Hello Reader, In this episode of the StableMinded Podcast, we continue to explore what it looks like to give ourselves “permission to change.” By looking intentionally at our spiritual, emotional, and relational health through a framework drawn from Erikson's developmental model, side-by-side with the stages of spiritual maturity, we can gain insight into how our developmental wounds and attachment patterns shape the way we relate to God and others. These patterns and coping strategies often...
