The Liz Moody Podcast · Ranking ADHD Advice For Women From Social Media (with Therapist Jenna Free) · 22 Jun 2026 podcast

In my heart of hearts, as an ADHDer and someone who was really dysregulated for a very long time and struggling and trying to figure out how to do stuff, it always felt like, do I really need to play games to like wash the dishes?

I can get myself to be in action, do the things I want to do without having to play tricks on myself all the time.

So it can be a great band-aid approach.

And sometimes we need band-aids.

I got to get through the day, but it is not a good long-term approach, I don't think.

Am I really tense?

Am I feeling in freeze?

Am I mentally freaking out?

If so, can I calm everything down?

How could I move myself forward in that gentler way to have more sustainable momentum instead of this feeling of like I'm running down a hill or I'm stuck in quicksand?
