ADHD and Connection
When ADHD and romance collide, connection moves at light speed. You talk fast, feel deeply, and second-guess every heartbeat at 3 a.m. — usually while reorganizing your sock drawer. This week on Do Better. Be Better., The Cynical Romantic dives into the exhilarating, exhausting ways ADHD shapes how we love, listen, and (occasionally) interrupt mid-sentence. From dopamine-driven attraction to sensory overload at dinner, we unpack why relationships can feel like both fireworks and feedback loops. With humor, empathy, and research from CHADD, the Cleveland Clinic, and ADDitude Magazine, we explore how to turn emotional hyperfocus into mindful connection. Because love isn’t about perfect timing — it’s about pausing, breathing, and daring to be fully present… even if your brain’s already two chapters ahead.
Triggers, Channels & Whisper Worlds
Welcome to Love, Lies & Scandals — where passion meets poor judgment, and self-discovery occasionally wears noise-cancelling headphones. Here, we explore the beautiful chaos of love, mental health, and modern connection through humor, honesty, and a healthy dose of overthinking. From ADHD-fueled relationships to the soothing world of ASMR, every story dives into the messy intersection between emotion and logic — or as I call it, “Tuesday.”
Think of this space as your sanctuary for the wonderfully human: where heartbreak gets analyzed, healing gets a playlist, and personal growth comes with caffeine and sarcasm. Whether you’re chasing calm, clarity, or closure, you’ll find it here — whispered, written, and occasionally confessed out loud.
Love, Lies & Scandals: proof that even when we tangle our hearts (and our earbuds), there’s still beauty in the static.
