"When you wake up your dopamine system is still recalibrating from sleep. If you SLAM into the day (emails demands rushing) you trigger a stress response before your executive functions are even fully online. That sets you up for the very crashes youre trying to avoid.

Having ADHD makes it exponentially harder to care for self. I see you. Work with your coach or therapist to keep systems in place. Youre incredible and brave and Im sorry you have"
