ADHD & The Morning Doomscroll Trap: Why We Get Stuck and How to Break Free
Manage episode 503994989 series 3625536
Ever grab your phone “just for a second” in the morning … and suddenly it’s 45 minutes later, your coffee’s cold, and you feel like the day already slipped away? ADHD brains are especially vulnerable to doomscrolling, and it often sucks the life out of our day when we start doing it before we even get out of bed.
In this episode of ADHD Adult(ish), I break down:
- Why mornings make us extra prone to scrolling spirals.
- Why doomscrolling is basically the junk food of dopamine.
- Simple swaps to break the morning doomscroll cycle.
- Quick tricks to break free in the moment if you realize you’ve already been sucked in.
Whether you want to cut the scroll entirely or just stop it from hijacking your whole morning, this episode has you covered.
