    Under "disrupted routines," I would add a sense of isolation or stagnation for kids whose escape from families of origin was being in school.

      School was my salvation from my alcoholic father. I became an overachiever.

      @@DocSnipes Thank you Dr. Snipes. You are a blessing. Growing up the Christmas season has been hard because I came from a family that was dirt poor and other kids would tease me. Now as an adult, I find the Christmas season hard because all three of my parents died during the Christmas season.

    Holidays and other special events were always chaotic, traumatic, and traumatic with my mother, even if it was just the 2 of us. She threw a temper tantrum 3 days before my wedding and decided not to come (she was super angry after because I didn't fall to pieces and beg her to come). With my kids it was another type of chaos in that she would buy overwhelming ammounts of stuff for the kids. If the kids didn't remember every little gift, I got cussed out for raising ungreatful brats.
    I credit my current husband for helping recover Christmas for me. He loves picking out gifts for people and isn't hyper focused on all the trappings. If all we do is hang stockings, he's delighted. Over the 10 years we've been together he's slowly rebuilt Christmas for me. We don't do big family events but we try to do something special every year, even if it's just the 2 of us. The best thing is he checks in with me every year to see where my head's at.

    Dear Dr,
    I would like to thank you, for the valuable amount of work you put in all the knowledge you share on YT.
    I have to tell you, that your kind voice sounds like a lullaby at times to ppl seeking to sooth the hurt and the pain of a forever bleeding heart. As well most of the time what you say or ask to do is too heavy to be heard and orocessed and applied.
    This is why therapy is needed rather than a self medication via YT.
    But still, there are some things that go triggered by your suoerkind words, that do not allow to follow the whole lenght of your download . It is like at some point, rather than being refocused on a better hwaltier, more positive oersoectuve , you are dragged down into your thoughts finding yourself sinkjng in your demons or awful past. I feel to cry over myself like on a victim, rather than rising up my head of survivor that now looks for their steps forward.
    Please help with this, as i know in the MH communities this.. wandering in the sinking pound is even maintained, and for sure that isnt of real help to ppl in need.
    To be kind to oneself, and accept ourself should never mean to give up in changing our wrong situation

      I appreciate you watching. The person with ADHD is often stressed, is often being bombarded with many stimuli and has difficulty prioritizing what’s important.

    Is it possible for the inner child to die?

    • @DocSnipes
      @DocSnipes  Рік тому

      Thank you so much for watching. Our inner child is the part of us made up of memories and experiences from childhood. When our inner child is traumatized or wounded and cannot get comfort, it often withdraws and that wound stays open. That’s why it’s important for us to heal our inner child. What would you say is your favorite tip from the video?
