34. DMDD, ADHD, and Anxiety, Oh My! The Real Reasons They’re Melting Down—and What Helps
Manage episode 488225304 series 3604582
DMDD, ADHD, and anxiety… oh my! If those letters feel like your everyday life and you’re constantly trying to decode what’s really going on behind your child’s big emotions—this episode is your roadmap.
We’re breaking down what’s actually fueling those emotional explosions, how these diagnoses often overlap, and why your go-to parenting responses might not be working (through no fault of your own!). Plus, I’ll walk you through a simple, heart-centered framework that helps you respond with more calm, connection, and clarity—even in the toughest moments.
Grab your coffee, take a deep breath, and join me—we’re going there!
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- The surprising ways anxiety, ADHD, and DMDD can look the same on the outside
- Why traditional discipline strategies often backfire with emotionally intense kids
- What your child’s meltdown is really trying to communicate
- A real-life story of how one powerful pause changed everything
- A practical framework (H.E.A.R.) to help you respond with empathy and effectiveness
