Arguments in ADHD relationships can go from zero to 100 fast—because when emotions spike, regulation gets really hard. You’re trying to express yourself, but suddenly, you’re overwhelmed, words aren’t coming out right, and your brain is either shutting down or going into defensive mode. Later, you replay the argument, wondering why it felt so intense and wishing you could’ve responded differently. ✨ ADHD Brain Breakdown: 😢 Emotional Dysregulation: People with ADHD feel emotions more intensely and struggle to downshift once activated, making arguments feel overwhelming. ☁️ Rejection Sensitivity (RSD): A simple disagreement can feel like deep personal criticism, triggering a defensive response. 🧠 Executive Dysfunction Under Stress: When emotions run high, the ADHD brain has a harder time processing information, problem-solving, and responding calmly. If you struggle with conflict in relationships, you’re not alone. Understanding your ADHD brain can help you self-regulate and communicate in a way that actually gets your needs met 💙 If this sounds familiar, our app is like a pocket ADHD coach—helping you understand your brain and build habits that actually stick.
