Intrusive Thoughts & AuDHD

  • Summary

  • Mini episode on my experience with intrusive thoughts and how/when they stopped being distressing.

    Monotropic brains tend toward thought loops and thus can make intrusive thoughts pretty easily.

    In my case, I think my brain was in part trying to generate interest when my needs were not being met. Dopamine is also a learning chemical that tells the brain to pay attention right now.


    This is just my experience... Please seek professional help if you're having distressing intrusive thoughts!
