Ough, that feeling of not being having a choice and still having to deal with the consequences... Yeah that hit deep. My therapist told me in one of our first sessions that "we can learn to feel comfortable with feeling uncomfortable". It's honestly the only way I've learned today not to blurt out random thoughts or prevent me from acting on "fun ideas" by making peace with how frustrating it feels in the moment.

This has also been one of the greatest hurdles for me. Going into social situations with a game plan is definitely a good idea, but even still, I often find my best laid plans laid to waste and impulsivity strikes again! The really crazy thing is I don’t so much pause in the moment as go into a weird out of body experience: my mouth keeps talking and saying whatever obnoxiously impulsive thing is going to say while my brain is screaming, “Everyone in the room is going to feel a lot better if you don’t say that out loud!” In recent years, I have gotten better at listening for that scream from my brain and recognizing that’s a signal from the more sensible part of my personality - maybe instead of belting out, I could simply listen.

my biggest impulsivity problems are shopping (adhd tax) and new ideas (for solving problems or creating something). does anyone have any suggestions for how to slow down or make a plan ahead of time for those categories? This time of year is especially bad and I'm feeling so much guilt and shame. (Thank you Jessica + team for this video - it was so very needed and helpful!)
