In a healthy intimate relationship, both people can feel deeply connected while still having their own sense of self, making independent choices and maintaining parts of life that are not entirely shared. Enmeshment describes a dynamic in which those boundaries become blurred, leaving less room for each person’s individual identity and autonomy.

While expectations around closeness vary across families and cultures, the dynamic can become difficult when someone’s identity or autonomy is compromised. Therapy can help create clearer boundaries without losing the love and connection within the relationship.

Emotional dysregulation in ADHD can involve feelings that escalate quickly, reactions that are difficult to interrupt or taking longer to settle. Because it is less widely associated with ADHD it may be mistaken for being too sensitive, moody or having 'big' :boom: emotions .

Emotional dysregulation is not unique to ADHD and does not indicate the condition by itself, but when it sits alongside longstanding difficulties with attention, organisation or impulsivity, a specialist assessment can help make sense of the wider pattern.

It can be difficult to know whether what you are experiencing is “enough” to seek support, particularly when there is so much conflicting advice online.

You do not need to wait until you reach crisis point. If something is affecting your quality of life and you are unsure how to move forward, that can be reason enough to speak to a qualified professional.

And when seeking information online, consider who it comes from. Check their qualifications, training and relevant experience, or begin with trusted sources such as the NHS and Mind.

When women come to therapy presenting with symptoms of perimenopause, careful exploration can help build a clear picture of what is happening and identify the most appropriate treatments, strategies and wider support.

Because there can be significant overlap between perimenopause, burnout and depression, taking the time to understand each woman as a whole really matters. The aim is to create a thoughtful, individual roadmap forward.

We've been asked to explain how stimulant medication works in ADHD?

Dr Divina Pillay, Psychiatrist, explains its effects on dopamine and noradrenaline-neurotransmitters involved in attention and executive function.

Medication is not suitable for everyone and should only be prescribed and monitored by an appropriately qualified clinician.

This video is for general education, not individual medical advice. Never start, stop or change medication without speaking to your clinician.

What should we explain next?

We spend a huge amount of our lives at work, so it's perhaps unsurprising that questions about our careers often find their way into the therapy room.

Sometimes the question isn't how to perform better at work, but what role we want work to play in our lives. Here we explore three common topics that show up regularly when exploring this with clients.

For some people, the idea of seeing a psychiatrist can feel significant, particularly if they’re unsure what psychiatry involves.

Psychiatrists are medically trained doctors who specialise in mental health. Their role is to understand what you’re experiencing, consider both your mental and physical health, and help work out what kind of treatment or support may be most useful.

Dr Tom Pennybacker explains the role of a psychiatrist and why understanding what they do can help make the process feel more familiar.

When trust is broken, it can alter how you understand the relationship itself.

Rebuilding trust is rarely about simply moving on, it means making sense of what happened, what it has changed and whether a new sense of security can be created together.

The first therapy session doesn't always leave you feeling lighter, sometimes it leaves you with more to consider. Hope, vulnerability and uncertainty are often what people report, but there really is no 'right' ways to feel when you begin therapy. What matters is that you have begun and this is the biggest step.
