"Depression is when you don't really care about anything. Anxiety is when you care too much about everything and when you have both it's just like hell" .

When their energy is off, some people stay away from everyone to get themselves together. Isolation heals them. I know most of you will not understand '

Who else does this? Let's see in the comments.

Things that ADHD and Anxiety sufferers do that make people label them as “they talk too much”:

1. They finish people’s sentences — not to be rude, but because their brain is already racing ahead.

2. They interrupt others — it’s a reflex, driven by fear of forgetting the thought.

3. They talk even when they don’t fully understand — because they’re trying to fit in and not feel left out.

4. They overshare — and then feel deep guilt and shame afterwards.

5. They talk fast or jump between topics because their thoughts come all at once.

6. They repeat stories or points because anxiety makes them unsure if they were heard or understood.

7. They fill silence because silence feels loud and uncomfortable to them.

8. They explain too much because they’re afraid of being misunderstood or judged.

Please be kind.
This is not intentional behaviour — it’s a reflex action.
They are not trying to steal conversations or make everything about themselves.
No one wants to embarrass themselves on purpose.

Just because it isn’t a physical illness doesn’t mean it isn’t an illness.
Stop 🛑 today and try to understand this group of people.
They can’t change overnight.
They do know they’re doing it — that’s why the guilt comes afterwards.

Sometimes you are overwhelmed, anxious and depressed because of the hard battle you were meant to do.👇

Signs you’re the Generational curses cycle-breaker

You question things your family says “that’s just how it is.”

You feel like you don’t fully belong, even though you love your family.

You’re emotionally aware in a family that avoids emotions.

You’re tired of surviving and crave peace, not chaos.

You notice toxic patterns before others do — and they bother you deeply.

You feel guilt when you set boundaries… but you still set them.

You’re drawn to healing, therapy, self-reflection, or spiritual growth.

You carry responsibility that was never meant to be yours.

You’re the “strong one,” but inside you’re exhausted.

You feel pain that doesn’t fully feel like it started with you.

You’re choosing differently: healthier love, softer life, conscious parenting (or re-parenting yourself).

You speak up about things that were always kept silent.

You’re breaking cycles even when it costs you relationships.

You’re learning to rest in a lineage that only knew struggle.

You feel called to protect the next generation — even if you never felt protected.

A truth for you Cycle breakers are often misunderstood, judged, or labelled “difficult.”
But really… you’re just the first brave enough to say “this ends with me

You’re not imagining it. You’re chosen for this work — and it’s heavy because it matters. 🤍

How to overcome SHAME'

Name it without judging yourself
“This is shame, not who I am.”

Separate shame from facts
Feelings are loud, but they’re not always true.

Stop the inner bully
Speak to yourself the way you would to a hurting friend.

Remember shame grows in silence
Safely sharing reduces its power.

Ground your body
Slow breaths, feet on the floor, hand on chest.

Challenge the story
Ask: Whose voice is this really? Mine or someone else’s?

Allow imperfection
Being human is not a failure.

Replace “I am” with “I feel”
“I feel ashamed” ≠ “I am shameful.”

Practice self-compassion daily
Small kindnesses count.

Let it pass
Shame is a feeling — not a life sentence.

Some people can't shut up, they talk too much, they interrupt others while talking ? Why can't they shut up! Here is why?

This conversation feels unfair to people living with ADHD and anxiety. These are not personality flaws — they are medical conditions. Many of the behaviours being criticised, like interrupting or talking excessively, are not deliberate. They’re often reflex actions driven by an overactive inner voice or unmanaged emotions.

No one wants to interrupt others or dominate conversations. Most people who do are painfully aware of it and feel embarrassed or ashamed afterwards. Knowing it’s happening doesn’t always mean being able to stop it in the moment.

Let’s normalise adding context — unless it’s an illness. Because for many, it is.

Judging people by saying they “can’t shut up” or “always interrupt” ignores the reality that many are struggling silently, undiagnosed, or in denial because of stigma. The result is that people don’t get help — they just get excluded.

Many cope by withdrawing from conversations or shutting people out, not because they don’t care, but because constant judgment hurts more than silence.

This isn’t about disrespect. It’s about empathy, awareness, and choosing language that doesn’t harm people who are already trying to heal.
