9. Storm Journaling & Emotional Dysregulation

9. Storm Journaling & Emotional Dysregulation

In this episode, I share a tool I like to call "Storm Journaling" as an act of radical self-acceptance & unshaming when we experience intense emotional dysregulation. Emotional regulation is a part of our Executive Functioning & has a huge impact on the experience of both ADHD & Autism. I've spent so much of my life trying to "fix" my big emotions, when what I really needed was to learn how to embrace them fully. I hope you enjoy. **Important note**: I don’t recommend Storm Journaling as a daily journaling practice. That’s a pretty quick ticket to feeling like crap, a lot. This is a tool best-used at your discretion, when you’re in an Autistic meltdown/shutdown or you’re in full-on ADHD emotional dysregulation, and the thought of doing something to make yourself “feel better” makes you even more upset. This is a sign that we need to lean into feeling our feelings, instead of trying to change them. For more routine journaling, I love Amie McNee’s work. You can find her journaling compendium on her website AmieMcNee.com and get it for free if you sign up for her newsletter. (In no way is this an ad or sponsored in any way—I’m just a huge fan of her work, and this resource is phenomenal).
