Summary
If resting doesn’t leave you feeling rested, you’re not imagining it. In this episode, Jess & Jeannine explore ADHD burnout in late-diagnosed women and why it often feels so different from typical burnout. They discuss the invisible mental load of executive function, masking, emotional regulation, and why vacations, weekends, and even sleep don’t always restore the kind of exhaustion many neurodivergent women experience. Whether you’re wondering why your old coping strategies stopped working, why everything suddenly feels harder, or why your brain never seems to shut off, this conversation offers validation, understanding, and the reminder that you’re not doing rest wrong.
