🌿 ADHD & Nervous System Dysregulation in Women

If you’re a late-diagnosed woman with ADHD, you may have spent years feeling “off” — overwhelmed, exhausted, anxious — without understanding why. Many women blame themselves for being “too sensitive” or “bad at coping,” when in reality, they’ve been living with a chronically dysregulated nervous system.

We now know that for many women with ADHD, symptoms like:

-Constant busyness or restlessness

-People-pleasing or boundary issues

-Fatigue, task paralysis, emotional reactivity
.....aren’t personal failures. They’re survival responses to long-term nervous system stress.

🧠 ADHD brains often get stuck in fight-or-flight or shutdown. Understanding your nervous system’s patterns is the first step to healing.

🔎 Start by asking:
What are your glimmers (things that make you feel safe and calm)?
What are your triggers (things that push you into anxiety, avoidance, or exhaustion)?

Common glimmers: sunshine, dog walks, music, deep breaths, stretching
Common triggers: poor sleep, social rejection, doom-scrolling, unstructured time

💡 Regulation Tools That Help:
✔️ Reclaim rest as a necessity, not a reward
✔️ Limit tech stimulation (especially in the morning/evening)
✔️ Try cold water splashes or compresses
✔️ Use somatic practices like movement, grounding, or EFT
✔️ Learn your nervous system’s "ladder" of stress — and how to climb back to calm

At iMind, we see you. Your nervous system isn’t broken — it’s been working overtime to protect you. With the right tools and support, you can return to a more regulated, grounded version of yourself. 💛

Today is National PTSD Awareness Day.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is not just something that affects veterans—it can impact anyone who has experienced trauma. That includes survivors of abuse, accidents, natural disasters, or any event that felt deeply threatening or overwhelming.

PTSD is real, treatable, and nothing to be ashamed of.

At iMind Mental Health and Wellness, we are committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where healing can begin. If you or someone you love is struggling with symptoms like flashbacks, anxiety, nightmares, or emotional numbness, you’re not alone—and help is available.

📞 Call us today to speak with one of our compassionate professionals.
💬 Or message us to learn about therapy options tailored to your needs.

🧠 Healing is possible. Let’s break the silence and end the stigma.
