Episode 9-Make it, don't fake it

If you have anxiety and frustration around the fear of failure. You are in the right place.  We’ve all heard the saying Fake it ’til you make it, right? I’ve tried that for years and.. I felt like a fraud.  I don’t want to fake it anymore.   If you are like me, take a listen to this episode and see if we can make it together If you listened to episode 8, where I talked about confidence,  you might feel that the idea of I am likable and exude confidence, is still incongruent with  feelings of self-doubt and self-deprecating habits.  …

Episode 8- Con(fidence)

Do you find yourself feeling like you’ve missed the bus or have not lived up to your full potential? While it’s not uncommon in the general population, this can be even more pronounced with people with ADD.  We tend to be more sensitive to these feelings.  Research shows that our heightened need for acceptance can cause us to be more susceptible to feelings of unworthiness.

They are best known for their avid collection of shiny objects.  They will snag tinsel and bobbles to adorn their nests.  If you are a creative person with ADD, I imagine that you can find use or inspiration in a lot of different things that other people would just toss out.  This can cause us to hold on to too much stuff because we see the potential of it.
