ADHD, high functioning anxiety and perfectionist-based procrastination go together like peanut butter, jelly and banana.
We’re former hard-working, top-of our class, good girls who masked our high functioning anxiety our whole lives, and then we became mothers, and the masks are falling apart. They are WORN OUT. And we just can’t keep them together anymore.
Today, I’m going to share a story with you about motherhood and anxiety so you can KNOW for sure that there are others out there like you. You’re not alone. And either am I.
“My other daughter” was originally read on stage at The Boulder Theater for the national show, Listen To Your Mother.
Former Chicago-girl, Stacey Hutson, now lives in Golden with her husband and two still slightly helpless daughters, ages 4 and 6. Stacey wanted to be a mom her whole life. Which is why she was so confused when motherhood was not the rainbows and sunshine she always imagined it would be. Her nervous system was overwhelmed, her house was a disaster, and she couldn’t understand why she was so nostalgic for her fun, spontaneous pre-mom life. That’s why she created the Mother Plus Podcast with Stephanie Sprenger to give a voice to the too much moms who feel like they are failing at motherhood, and don’t want to fail anymore. Stacey discovered LTYM five years ago when she needed it most. She made a promise to herself that night that she would one day be in the show. Four shows later, she has been here every year, pinching herself, alongside the most incredible cast of women.
If you're looking for your people -- the ones who get your time blindness, always-late-ness, obsessive, excited, but easily distracted nature -- then please join us in the ADHD Moms Club.
This THURSDAY, May 23rd, we'll be having our first virtual Body Doubling Meetup. Bring your laundry, bring your bills, bring your kids. It's super casual. The idea is that we will accomplish much more together than apart.
