E78: Holiday vibe check: boundaries and ADHD families

The Christina Crowe Podcast: Making the invisible VISIBLE

I’m your host, psychotherapist Christina Crowe, and I love making invisible things visible. Today I’m doing a solo, answering some special request questions I’ve received from our audience this season. Today, I’m talking to the parents of ADHD kids who are dreading upcoming family gatherings because you aren’t getting what you need from your extended family members. Let’s talk about what’s going on, and how to get more of what you need.

I cover today:

1. Asking for Support as an ADHD Parent - why is it hard?

2. Tactful responses to triggering comments,

3. How to explore what might be really going on,

4. How to plan for a better experience, before you get there.
