The ADHD Alchemist & The Fluctuating Furnace: Episode Two
Ever been told you’re “too sensitive,” “too much,” or, paradoxically, “not feeling enough”? Welcome to ADHD emotions—where the furnace of feeling has no manual, the flames flare unpredictably, and sometimes the fire refuses to light at all.
In this episode, step into The Furnace Room, where embers crackle, iron doors groan, and big feelings wait in the shadows. Here, we explore how ADHD warps the emotional dial—turning tiny sparks into wildfires, silences into ash, and rejection into a full-blown exile from civilization (even if the text just said “OK”).
But this room isn’t just chaos. Guided by the ADHD Alchemist, you’ll discover enchanted tools for tending the flames instead of being consumed by them:
🔥 A silver basin for regulating the body before the mind catches up
🔥 A firelit journal for naming what burns and giving it a container
🔥 A weathered compass to help redirect energy when the storm won’t calm
🔥 An ember stone of repair for rebuilding warmth and connection when big emotions spill over
You’ll also uncover how hormonal winds—PMDD, menstrual cycles, perimenopause—fan the furnace into unpredictable weather patterns. And, most importantly, you’ll learn that fire isn’t only destruction—it’s warmth, fuel, and transformation when tended with care.
