Feeling Decoder: Quick Check-In for ADHD Brains

Do you ever get hit with a big emotion and have no idea where it’s coming from?

For ADHD women, emotions can be layered — with signals from your environment, your body, and your past all showing up at the same time. This tool helps you slow down, sort through those signals, and figure out what you need next.

What’s Inside:

• A simple, 4-step process for breaking down emotional reactions.
• Three quick questions that separate present triggers from body signals and past experiences.
• Practical examples of how to respond in the moment.
• Designed for ADHD-friendly use — short, direct, and printable.

How to Use It:

Keep it on your phone, print it for your planner, or post it somewhere visible. Use it whenever you feel overwhelmed, unsure, or stuck in an emotional loop.
