In this episode we're talking about the nuances of friendships through the lens of ADHD traits, and exploring how they influence our behaviour particularly when making new friends. From the exhilarating rush of connection to the relentless fear of rejection, my ADHD traits have shaped the ebb and flow of my friendships, revealing both challenges and strengths along the way.

In this episode:

  • The complexities of managing impulses and dopamine cravings in the context of building new relationships.
  • The nuances of reliving shared moments and the compulsion to interrupt conversations.
  • The profound impact of rejection-sensitive dysphoria (RSD) on friendship dynamics, offering a deeper understanding of ADHD-related anxiety.
  • The role of divergent thinking in fostering humour and connection, despite occasional feelings of isolation.
  • The rich diversity of friendships and the enduring bonds that transcend any challenges posed by ADHD traits.
