Ever find yourself replaying something that happened — a conversation, mistake, or awkward moment — and you just can’t stop?
You analyze it from every angle, and instead of relief, you just end up feeling worse.
You’re not alone. ADHD brains are sticky. We hold on to things longer, feel them more deeply, and often internalize them as something we need to fix or make right. But the truth is, most of the strategies we’re told to use — “just let it go,” journaling, reframing — only work for a moment before the replay spiral starts again.
In this episode, we'll explore what’s really happening when ADHD brains can’t stop looping, why this pattern ties so closely to emotional sensitivity and shame, and what I've found that finally helps break the cycle.
You’ll learn what doesn’t work, what helps short-term, and the deeper shifts that actually last.
✨ If your brain won’t stop replaying what went wrong — this episode will show you how to soften the pattern and finally find peace.
