@audhd.mind: For anyone trying to understand or navigate AuDHD meltdowns and anger: consistency is everything. It's not a one-time fix, but when the nervous system finally starts trusting the space you provide, those moments start to get smaller. You aren't broken, and your reactions make sense. What helps you regulate when things get overwhelming? (Every autistic and AuDHD brain is so unique this is just what I personally relate to!) #AuDHD #neurodivergent #Autistic #AutisticAdults #autismsupport
That doesn’t work for families when everyone is audhd

"This doesn't change how I see you" just made me cry, because we need to hear this SO BADLY

My husband and I both have AuDHD and I’m this for him, but he still struggles to regulate. I do sometimes wish he could do the same for me

my family has decided that mocking, criticism and immediate conflict resolution is how to deal with any meltdowns that I have. it progresses exactly how you would imagine. I'm a 48 year old man.

Matching intensity really got me... never realized before how much lighter that anger becomes when it's intensity is met not with a mirror, but an open mind.

In my case, the only thing that works with me is being left alone, because many times it is an accumulation of months or years, and even the presence of someone alters me.

The WORST advice I've ever gotten from somebody is "If someone confronts you about something, regardless of what's happening deal with it immediately" except for when I do, I tend to not do/say things I actually want to say and instead make the situation worse
like, once, right before my ex broke up with me, she had gotten mad at me for venting to someone in a tiktok comment about how she brushed me off when I came to her for help... dumb, I know, lol. But it was like 3 am so I said I was gonna sleep then deal with it in the morning because I didn't want to say/do anything that'd hurt her more than I already did, but she refused and got angrier at me for it. And so I did exactly what I warned her would happen, and she got mad then broke up with me right then... Tbh, I'm glad she did she was toxic asf, and im so much better off single 😭
Anyways - when someone asks for space/time GIVE THEM SPACE/TIME and if someone refuses to give it to you... well, they're not a person you want in your life

my boyfriend is amazing, but he has a tendency of just leaving when something like this happens, and sometimes doesn't come back for a long time because he wants to give me space. but I only want space to calm down, and I've tried telling him that. it feels horrible because then I have to reach out afterwards

I’ve learnt to ask my parents, brother and partner to not talk to me for a while when overstimulation and/or frustration turns to anger. It took me a looooong time to understand the pattern and to be able to be aware enough to see it coming.

The thing that hurts me most is this is how someone has to respect me when I’m feeling horrible, but it’s so much harder to gain help in all the areas to stop getting to the point of exploding into that “horrible” person. :/ I don’t feel like I deserve my partner with how much effort he’s putting in to help me when I don’t feel like I’m help or beneficial to anyone. 😞

I can't work out what is even causing mine, I just keep ending up with injuries because it's the only way to regulate lol. I have a broken toe from April that didn't heal properly, because going to the doctor would mean them asking how I got it😂

Everyone thinks laughing at you or mocking you will make things better but it’s always worse and then I’m just a problem and wish I didn’t even speak at that point :/
