Valentine’s Day can be about romantic love.

But it’s also a good moment to notice the relationship you have with yourself.

If you have ADHD, there’s a high chance you’ve spent years:
pushing harder
expecting more
criticising yourself for inconsistency
calling yourself lazy when you were overwhelmed

Being tough on yourself might have helped you survive.
But it’s rarely what helps you thrive.

So here’s a gentle nudge from your ADHD coach (that is me 😘):

Kindness isn’t lowering your standards.
It’s creating the conditions where you can actually meet them.

Today, especially, soften the inner commentary a little.

You don’t have to earn compassion, kindness, and love. 💕🤗

Okay. It’s Valentine’s Day. So this one is for my ADHDers currently stuck in emotionally draining situationships.

No judgment.
Been there.
Done that.
Got the t-shirts (multiple!).

Let’s talk about something wildly unromantic but extremely relevant: intermittent reinforcement.

That little pattern where they’re inconsistent…
but just consistent enough.

The hot-and-cold.
The “I’m not ready for anything serious” followed by a 2am vulnerability drop.
The three days of silence… then one perfectly timed, emotionally loaded message.

And your ADHD brain lights up.

Because intermittent reinforcement is one of the most powerful behavioural conditioning schedules we know. It’s literally how slot machines keep people playing. The unpredictability spikes dopamine more than steady reward ever could.

So no, you’re not “dramatic.”
You’re not weak.
You’re not addicted to chaos because you love suffering.

Your brain is responding to variable reward.
Your nervous system is interpreting unpredictability as intensity.
And intensity can feel a lot like chemistry.

But here’s the part that changes things:

Dopamine spikes are not the same as emotional connection.
Fireworks are not the same as genuine depth.
And calm doesn’t mean the person isn’t ’right for you’ - it just means you’re not being conditioned by unpredictability.

If this is hitting a little too close to home, you’re not alone. And you’re not broken.

Follow along if you’re learning to tell the difference between chemistry and conditioning — especially with an ADHD brain in the mix.

If you’re learning to choose calm over chaos, especially with an ADHD brain, stay close. We’re rewiring gently here.

Louder for the people at the back - we really, really do not have an ADHD and autism diagnosis epidemic in the UK.

What we’re observing is people who have been overlooked and struggling their whole lives finally getting answers, language, and support.

If it feels like “everyone” around you is suddenly getting diagnosed, pause and consider:

• Your algorithm shows you more of what you already engage with. If you follow neurodiversity content, you’ll see more diagnoses. That’s not population data — that’s personalised curation.

• ADHD and autism are heritable. If one person in a family is diagnosed, others often start recognising traits in themselves. That can create visible clusters, especially within friendship groups.

• Diagnosis rates are catching up in adults who were missed as children. That creates a wave effect - not because prevalence has changed, but because recognition has.

• And statistically? ADHD affects roughly 3–5% of adults. Autism around 1–3%.
So ask yourself honestly: is it “everyone”… or is it roughly that proportion of people you know?

Anecdote isn’t epidemiology.

The data matters.

This one’s for the partners of ADHDers out there.

Here’s what we really, really want this Valentine’s Day 🤭☺️:

– Your genuine interest when we send you 6 articles, 3 memes, and a TikTok deep-dive - like a magpie collecting shiny things.

– You taking over one boring admin task or household chore, even if it’s “our chore.”

– An adventure we didn’t have to plan, but that aligns suspiciously well with our preferences. 🤭

– No judgment when we stim, sing, monologue, interrupt, or react out loud to the movie 15 times. The fact that we do it in front of you openly, means you’re truly special. 💕

– A little softness when we’re spiralling. We don’t need a solution or a fix. Just your voice saying, “I’ve got you.”

– Gently reminding us to take our meds, eat something with protein, drink water - even when we say, “I’m fine, leave me alone.” (We’re not. Don’t.)

– A smile when we decide to reorganise the spice rack at midnight or alphabetise the bookshelf while procrastinating. You know it’s not about the spice rack.

– Your full enthusiasm when we pitch a wildly over-the-top idea at 11:23pm. We probably won’t do it anyway, but being met with enthusiasm means everything 🤗.

– Better yet: offer to run with one of our ideas. Because we’re visionaries, not finishers, and it’s magic when someone meets us halfway.

– Snacks. Lovingly placed in our work bag. We probably forgot. You didn’t. That’s why we’re perfect for each other 😬.

– And your cheer when we go off on a passionate rant about a social justice issue we just learned about 20 minutes ago. Let us care out loud.

This is the stuff we’ll remember. The stuff that actually supports the version of us that doesn’t always feel easy to love.

What do you want this Valentine’s Day - whether you’re the ADHDer or the one loving them?
Drop it below and let’s spread the looooove 💕💕💕

It’s been a while since I ruffled someone’s feathers. 🤭

I believe ADHD is a real condition shaped by epigenetic influences - a mix of genes and environment. The genetic component is undeniable (though twin studied likely exaggerate it slightly), but the environmental impact is often overlooked.

For many people, ADHD can be genuinely disabling.
For others - and often in the right conditions - it can also come with real strengths.

What makes the biggest difference is rarely willpower or effort.

It’s context. Support. Environment. And how much pressure a nervous system is under.

I’m not interested in quick fixes or simplified answers.
I’m interested in building spaces where nuance, honesty, and real change are possible.

If that’s the kind of space you’ve been looking for, you’re very welcome here.

And if you’d like to stay close(r) to these conversations, comment Circle and I’ll let you know when the door opens officially 🤍
