Dealing with obsessive thoughts with ADHD
How does everyone cope and deal with the thoughts on repeat? What’s some useful tips I could try to help clear my head? My anxiety and depression is through the roof. I feel it’s stemming from ADHD. I just would like for some healthy tips on how to cope and manage🥰

Hey, that sounds really overwhelming, having those thoughts looping and everything piling up on you. I can hear how much you just want some kind of relief from it.
I can’t give specific coping tips, but I’m really glad you reached out and talked about what you’re dealing with. It makes sense you’d want healthier ways to get through something that intense. 💚
What helps me is to keep a "brain dump" journal. I write my thoughts down. It slows my mind down and gets me to think about my thoughts and frees my mind to move on to better things.

I started journaling late Dec and it is helping.
The brain dumping suggestion is good.
As well emotions often give rise to thoughts so sometimes if you can feel an emotion underneath the thoughts the thoughts quieten.
