About this listen
Part 1 in this series covered how ADHD affects desire. Now let's get practical.
Mid-sex, suddenly thinking about work emails and grocery lists? Your partner can tell you're not fully there . . . and it doesn't feel great to you either. You're not a bad lover, your ADHD brain is just incredibly loud.
This episode covers the most common in-the-moment challenges and what to do about them:
- Sensory needs: why some touches work and others don't, and how to communicate what your body needs
- Task-list brain: staying present instead of mentally composing tomorrow's to-do list
- Novelty, time blindness, and working memory: we'll discuss practical tools
These aren't flaws to fix—they're features to work with. Your ADHD brain can experience incredible pleasure and connection when you understand what it needs.
Start with one small tool. Small shifts make huge differences.
Part 3 coming soon: medication effects, sleep issues, and how ADHD behaviors outside the bedroom kill desire inside it.
