to get anything done, no matter how hard you try to, is so frustrating. | working against me and not for meβ¦. |
You see, I put an OVERWHELMING amount of effort into trying to concentrate and put everything together, but it feels like my life is quicksand.
The harder I try, the harder it gets.
My to-do list keeps on getting longer and longer and longer, and I am so anxious.
Does this sound like you?
Do you feel like you are stuck in an abyss of chaos?
Do you feel like no matter how hard you try and work your way through life, you just keep getting more and more distracted and more and more anxious?
Well, the good news is, youβre not alone.
In fact, 50% of people who
get diagnosed with ADHD
have also been
diagnosed with some
type of anxiety disorder.
This is not discussed
enough, and the two go
hand in hand.
Doctors sometimes try to
treat one at a time, with
dangerous prescription
meds like Adderall and
Xanax.
However, by treating
these individually and not
diving into the root cause,
you are only exacerbating
your symptoms.
Over the course of the past few years, top researchers in the field of neuroscience and psychology have discovered a disorder known as DFAD.
Ultimately, this is a function of the following phenomena:
First, a person is easily distractible due to their ADHD-like symptoms.
Next, they have a long list of things they try and do, getting none of it done, leading to a sense of short-term anxiety.
The short-term anxiety leads to more frazzled, chaotic thoughts, causing the ADHD symptoms to get worse and worse.
As a result, the to-do list gets even longer and longer and longer, and the person is then getting more and more anxious over time.
Eventually, this leads to chronic, low-grade anxiety that actually physically affects the brain.
The brain is then working against you, and you are left in a frenzied, anxious, and distracted state all the time.
This can go on for years until this becomes a forever condition that someone lives with.
