Do you have ADHD? Then you know about anxiety:
Am I going to screw this up, too? Am I going to get my to do list done? Am I going to get anything done? Am I going to blurt out the wrong thing? What am I forgetting? And where in the world are my keys?
Anxiety!
Jennie is an ADHD maven, coach and podcast producer. And she raises bees in her back yard! Inadvertently.
This is the podcast we did for ADHD Awareness Month, October.
I was anxious about doing the podcast, but I didn’t do as poorly as I feared.
For many reasons, anxiety goes hand in hand with ADHD, and it can be a booger. But, there are good strategies to help deal with anxiety. I discuss three of them in the podcast.
Hope you enjoy.

Very Excited Note O the Day: I am learning how to use Dino’s ingenious strategy for making the Facebook images come out right instead of getting chopped off. This is the first trial run. Hoping. And many thanks to Dino.

I loved the podcast, Doug. I wish you’d make more! You did great!
I listened to it while doing the dishes. I found out that, while I usually can’t focus on two things at the same time, some “mindless” activities are perfect to pay attention to something on my headphones.
I keep forgetting your “list of one” so I always like to hear it repeated. It really is a good one.
And anxiety is one of my two major issues (the other one is people) with ADHD, so it’s always very helpful when you make anxiety posts. 🙂

Ram -thank you for your kind comments, glad you liked it. There is some controversy about multitasking, but i do it a lot, and think it helps me focus. probably depends on the situation and also on the person..
List of one is my fall back position, and can really help when I’m struggling.
best wishes
