I must be missing something really obvious but I just don’t understand why everyone is so upset that we are trying to tell people it’s not their fault that they have a different way of experiencing the world? Why does it matter if they have a label???? I don’t know what difference it make if it doesn’t effect you personally.

I take adhd medication and it literally helps me work. I’m not stealing peoples glasses because I don’t want them to see clearly.

STOP IT ITS AI PATHETIC

ADHD and autism are real and people aren’t making it up. It’s harming people to make them think they don’t deserve answers and that having a label is wrong. It’s making people sick and that costs everyone more than a fu***ng diagnostic assessment. It’s not about the money. It’s about division and control.

I mean it’s impossible not to be imaginative when you’re riddled with anxiety. Unless all of those thoughts are really happening to you right now, in which case you’re not anxious you’re fighting a real fight.

So yeah, I don’t think imagination is the issue 😂

Look I think everyone can benefit from therapy but should they pay for it or spend time going - not always.

The one thing that will predict the effectiveness of therapy is your belief around how much control you have over your own mood. How much you can influence your thoughts and feelings.

If you believe you have no control and it’s completely down to something other than you then I wouldn’t waste your money or time on therapy.
That might surprise you, but the reason I say this is that nothing you do or think will change anything anyway according to that logic.
The real reason not to bother is that is proven you won’t apply anything that you learn, use the techniques or make any attempt to change anything. All you will do is prove you were right and nothing can be done.

I am not being critical or arguing against this belief. There was a time I spent many years arguing my way through therapy because no one understood I was at the mercy of my own thoughts and feelings. I also didn’t use any of the tools because… there was no point.

So why did I put myself through it? I suppose I was hoping that someone might be able to fix me! Maybe I wanted validation I was broken and it wasn’t my fault? I don’t know but I do know I got all of that by attending and doing nothing with the information I learnt.

What changed, I think I must have got to a point where I realised it wasnt working! I think I must have felt so confused and annoyed I thought why not try what they suggest.

Guess what… it worked. I learnt I have far more control and influence over my mental and emotional state than I believed. I used the tools because I wanted them to work this time, I wanted to change things and I was ready to give up some unhealthy control to gain the right control.

This is not a life hack it’s a bloody basic human need.

I kid you not the majority of my clients have no idea what their body is experiencing. They don’t know if they are actually in a state that allows them to do the thing they are trying to do.

Imagine then feeling really pi**ed off with yourself when you’re sitting down trying to concentrate and focus and you feel constantly distracted.

If you could work out what kind of emotional and energetic state you are currently in then you can understand if that state is suitable, and if not you can take action and change things around you so that your body and your energy levels are in the right state.

We are a society that has become so disconnected with our own internal physiological states we barely even notice what’s happening.

When was the last time that you actually stopped to check in to see and notice what your body was showing you.

So how do you do this, good question!

If I was starting out one thing I would do is make an intentional practice in the morning before I start my day of doing a quick body scan noticing whether my energy feels high or low noticing whether my thoughts feel busy or quiet, I spend some time just waiting and letting my body give me the signs and signals that I need.

Doing this allows you to become more connected more aware and more in tune with your own body and your own nervous system.

When we do this it’s like being a detective looking for clues that tell us whether we really are in the best place to do everything we need.

What is dysregulation?

It’s a complex system that is not easy to simplify for social media. Because of that it’s often used with the wrong context.

We all move from being ‘regulated’ to dysregulated’ throughout the day. It’s what our body is designed to do.

Being dysregulated doesn’t mean your body isn’t working or doing its job properly.

It’s a cue a message that needs processing and then an appropriate response.

Sometimes the process doesn’t run smoothly and gets interrupted. Again this can be down to multiple factors and the individual person.

It’s also often a cause of moving through environments and situations that require different states and demands.

The body just needs to adapt and adjust.

And sometimes the environment isn’t suited to the persons needs and current state, so the environment needs to adapt and adjust too.

That’s really what we need to understand to help ourselves and others create the right state for the situation and if that’s not enough change the environment.

It’s just not good enough.

We are failing these children by blaming them for not being able to go to school.
If a workplace or job isn’t suitable for a person do we tell them to just get in it will be okay when they are there. Do we harass them when they have burnout and tell them they are emotionally avoiding work and they will be fined if they take any more time off.

There are reasons that this wouldn’t be acceptable, and yet this is exactly what happens when a child who has much less autonomy and authority to make decisions about their life says I can’t do this anymore.

We don’t ask them why we tell them to try harder.

It’s not okay.

Listen to them. Believe them. Help them.

If your oven is broken don’t be mad at it when your food isn’t cooked.

If reality feels a bit confusing right now focus on one thing that’s unquestionably real, for me that’s the certainty at least one person in my house will cry today.

The only thing that’s certain right now is what’s right in front of you that you can see, smell, touch and hear.

If your anxiety is fixated on maybes or what ifs then stick with it is or I am.

Also I have an obsession with buying anything that features a whippet atm. That is also real 😋

My clients come to see me to get rid of their anxiety.

They are often disappointed to learn that the anxious feelings they have are not big scary monsters out to hurt them, but a part of them that doesn’t feel safe.

Imagine a tiny puppy coming home to a new house, leaving the only place it’s known and its mum. You see him shaking in the corner, you want him to know you’re safe and yo want to look after him, but he doesn’t understand you.

The best way to help is to stay quiet and still, to allow him to come and explore in his own time when he feels a bit braver. Then he will learn it is safe and he doesn’t need to feel scared anymore. He trusts you.

What would happen if instead of being afraid of anxiety you imagined it like a little scared puppy and actually looked after it and cared for it. Showed it it is safe.
