Today we're talking about Mental Load, otherwise known as "invisible labor" and why understanding this concept is so important for those of us with ADHD.

What is mental load? It's the cognitive labor that goes into taking care of life. It’s the “worry work”; anticipating what is needed, researching options, planning, organizing, remembering, monitoring—- all of the thought work that goes into managing homes, work, family, and social lives.
If you are not in a partnership, you carry the weight of this work independently and if you have ADHD, this invisible labor can be even more challenging since in requires strong executive functioning skills.
Being in a partnership may not necessarily lighten this load for women, though. Studies suggest that women are often the default person for carrying the mental workload in families and that this can lead to overwhelm and burnout. Today we'll talk about this dynamic and ways we can protect against the negative impact of not sharing this cognitive work.

ADHD Crash Course - 63. ADHD Time Hack: Learning Time Travel
play

05/02/23 • 9 min

When I refer to "time travel" I'm talking about our ability to think about our future selves and determine what we will need at that future point. This can also refer to our habit of thinking about the past and applying what we've learned to our current circumstances.
For those with ADHD, traveling through time may not be automatic, and time might be seen as "now" or "not now", but that doesn't mean we can't strengthen this skill.
Use today's tips to plan for what's next and set your future self up for success!

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a form of therapy that encourages us to think about our thinking. We are constantly thinking and these thoughts have a huge impact on our emotions, beliefs, AND our actions.
CBT can help us identify our faulty thinking so we can break the automaticity of distorted thoughts. Join me today as we take a look at what CBT is, how we can use it, and how it can improve our view of ourselves and our world.
