E187: I Hate Vacations! How To Improve Transitions for ADHD: What To Do When The Days After Your Trip Feel Like Torture

Author: Patricia Sung | ADHD Coach for Moms with ADHD May 4, 2023 Duration: 29:23

After your family trip is over, do you look more like Clark Griswald than the refreshed luminescent being you were hoping for?

The trip was wonderful while you were there, but why is it SUCH a rocky ride with grumpy kids and a tired mom for an entire week afterwards?

Transitions are difficult for ADHD, and coming back from a trip doesn't have to be an uncomfortable emergency landing back into real life.

Today I'm sharing my proactive plan for easing back into real life after a vacation. 

With a new strategy in play, you'll be asking, "when's our next trip?"

"Gift yourself the opportunity to meet like-minded people (literally), make instant friendships, and the space to finally be yourself."  –ADHD Mama T.H.

I'll take care of all the details - you simply show up and enjoy. 

Put it on your calendar now.

Ever feel like you're running a marathon with no finish line in sight, while everyone else seems to be on a leisurely stroll? That mental clutter, the constant search for your keys, the guilt over forgotten appointments-it's not a personal failing. It's often the lived experience of motherhood when you're also navigating adult ADHD. Motherhood in ADHD is a space created specifically for that reality. Hosted by Patricia Sung, an ADHD coach who gets it because she lives it, this podcast digs into the intersection of a neurodivergent brain and the demands of raising a family. You'll find conversations that move beyond simple tips, offering brain-based science and practical strategies tailored for moms whose minds work differently. Episodes explore how to structure your days in a way that works with your ADHD, not against it, and rethink parenting approaches to reduce overwhelm for both you and your kids. It’s about education that leads to self-compassion, replacing shame with understanding. Tune in for honest talk about productivity that actually sticks, managing mental health, and building systems that acknowledge your unique wiring. This is more than just a podcast; it’s a companion for redefining what success looks like in your home and in your mind, helping you move from barely coping to truly thriving.
