Reflections of a Summer of AUDHD Burnout and Things I’ve Learnt Along the Way.

Mind Vox

After two months of radio silence, Claire is back with a new Mind Vox episode.

This is more of an update to what’s been going on, as well as what she’s learnt through the current issues she’s faced, and what’s coming up for the pod.

This episode explores:

-Why Claire hasn’t uploaded a pod episode in a while!

-Some of the symptoms she’s recognised as Autistic and ADHD Burnout.

-Recent transitions that have been adding pressure and increasing the burnout, including school transitions and holidays.

-The limitations she’s faced to recover, including summer holidays as a single parent and being a sandwich carer.

-What Claire’s been doing to reduce the burnout and which have been the most helpful.

-Things she’s learnt from this most recent burnout to take forward for the next time.

-Ideas for future episodes.
