Sex, ADHD & Trauma: What No One Talks About
Manage episode 490007675 series 3669473
Sex is supposed to feel good — safe, connected, playful… right? But what happens when ADHD and trauma are in the room too?
In this episode, I get raw and real about how distraction, impulsivity, hyperfocus, and body memories shape our experience of intimacy — and how healing isn’t always linear, even when we’ve come a long way.
💥 I share personal truths, including a recent trigger that caught me off guard
🌀 We explore why you might crave sex and shut down at the same time
😂 And we lighten the load with some hilarious community confessions (green beans, anyone?) about what it’s really like to have sex with ADHD
Whether you're healing from trauma, navigating neurodivergence, or just want to feel less alone in the chaos of intimacy — this one’s for you.
