People with ADHD often fall into what we call the “Apology Loop” forgetting, feeling guilt, avoiding, and then over-apologizing. It’s not flakiness, it’s often executive dysfunction and emotional overwhelm.

Let’s aim for grace and growth.
✨ Try this reframe:
“Thanks for your patience, I needed a moment.”
