Living with an invisible illness often means juggling symptoms that shift with context. When a task feels loaded with stress or fear, it can take far more energy than it needs to. Sometimes, reframing how we see an activity can lighten that load and help with pacing.

This isn’t about ignoring pain or pushing toxic positivity – it’s about exploring small mindset shifts that can support your nervous system and make daily life feel a little more manageable.

Do you feel like “rest” is boring, understimulating, or just uncomfortable?
Have you been told to try breathwork, but it feels like more work instead of relaxing?
You’re not alone. Many ADHD brains find rest tricky, either bouncing between six things without finishing any, or feeling stuck and restless. So how do you recharge when “traditional rest” doesn’t cut it?

What is your go to recharge?

18/09/2025

When pain is linked with fear or threat, our body may hold onto it as a way of protecting us. One strategy for managing chronic pain is not about eliminating the sensation completely, but about slowly building tolerance to it.

By pacing activities, respecting your limits, and creating safety around movements that trigger pain, your nervous system can learn that these activities are not dangerous. Over time, this can reduce the fear associated with pain and increase your tolerance to discomfort.

This approach needs to be done gradually, in safe and manageable doses, to support your nervous system in feeling secure.

Disclaimer: Everyone experiences pain differently. This approach may work for some people, but it is important to listen to your own body and seek guidance from your healthcare team before trying any new strategies.
