December 21st Hot Topic – Running the ADHD Marathon | Burnout from Not Slowing Down
Overexertion, taking on too much, over-scheduling to the point having too much to do and no time to do it will eventually cause life to come to a screeching halt. When you are burning the candle from both ends you are bound to burnout. Burnout is that extreme fatigue that happens when you dont take time to rest and it is much more prevalent among those with ADHD. In this meetup we will discuss strategies to prevent burnout.

Check out these articles before the meetup:

• ADHD Symptom Spotlight: Burnout
• All About ADHD Burnout

You are not alone. Come join a community of peers where you can safely discuss your neurodiverse experiences with a supportive community of peers once month.

You can attend these virtual Meetups on the third Thursday of every month. The more Meetups you attend, the more peer connections you’ll make with other professionals who have neurodiverse brains like you. Instead of being lonely in your experience, come laugh, learn, and connect with your community.

Join us to be welcomed into a community that gets you and lives with similar neurodiverse brains.

During the Meetups we’ll share struggles as well as systems and strategies to overcome your executive functioning and working memory challenges like anxiety, overwhelm, miscommunication, interrupting, inattentiveness, stress, distractibility, procrastination, paperwork fails, imposter syndrome, having to mask your neurodiversity at work, and weak organization skills.

The Community
Professionals in technology who are managing ADHD, ADD, autism, dyslexia, depression, anxiety, or other neurodivergent conditions.

The Agenda
*You are welcome to show up late or leave early to suit your schedule. We understand that this is a workday event and unexpected priorities arise. We’re neurodiverse and understand these realities.

• 12:00pm – Welcome!
• 12:05pm – Community discussion of today’s main neurodiverse topic
• 12:20pm – Breakout into small groups to discuss the topic further and meet some new friends
• 12:45pm – Return to the main Zoom room to share stories and learnings from your breakout group experience
• 1:00pm – Closing and farewell until the next Meetup

The Vibe
Supportive community of neurodiverse folks who see, understand, and support the ups and downs of your neurodiverse journey. You’ll laugh, smile, and exhale the stresses around living in a neuerotypically-designed world and work places. Come share what you’re up to, be curious and helpful to others, and make some new friends in the tech community!

The Experience
Receive community support and professional coaching as you talk safely with fellow ADHDers and neurodiverse peers about your challenges and solutions around neurodiverse living & working as a professional. Get love, understanding, tools for support, and meet new friends in a fun and safe space. We have fun too.
