Why Mom Sometimes Hides in Her Room (And Looks Like She's Ignoring You)

This is an official "owner’s manual" video for my kids to understand what is happening inside my body when I seem short-tempered or disappear into my room. This video explains why my neurodivergent brain sometimes goes into "alarm mode" and how we can work together to stop "throwing gasoline on a small fire". -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In this video, we cover: • The "Sports Car" Brain: Why having a "fast" ADHD-style brain paired with a sensitive "traffic-hating" nervous system leads to sensory overload. • The Overload Reality: Why my brain can't filter input properly when there are too many sounds, questions, and responsibilities hitting at once. • Fight, Flight, or Freeze: Understanding that yelling or "hiding" in my room is actually a protective reflex—like a sneeze—rather than a choice. • Stress Thoughts vs. Reality: How "splitting" makes me feel like "everything is ruined" (even over something small like noodles) when my nervous system is in emergency mode. • The Shame Crash and Repair: Why I isolate myself to deal with the "loop" of guilt and self-hate after a blow-up, and how I will always come back to apologize and repair the situation. Chapters: 00:00 - What You See vs. What’s Happening: Understanding why I look like I’m ignoring you. 00:45 - The AuDHD Overload: The struggle of a fast brain in a "noisy traffic" environment. 02:15 - The Brain’s Alarm System: Explaining the Fight, Flight, and Freeze responses. 03:30 - When "Noodles" Feel Like a Crime: How stress thoughts turn the "brightness" up too high. 05:00 - The Shame Crash: Why I hide in my room after snapping. 06:15 - How You Can Help: Simple ways to lower the noise and give me a minute to "un-sensor". 07:30 - The Repair Ritual: My commitment to taking responsibility and fixing things. Resources Mentioned: • Family Safety: You are never responsible for fixing my feelings or acting as my therapist—your only job is to be a kid. • Immediate Support: If you ever feel truly unsafe, get help from a trusted adult. In Canada, you can call or text 988 for immediate mental health support or 911 in an emergency. About This Channel: I am a mom navigating the "exhausting loop" of neurodivergent parenting. I’m sharing how I handle a brain that can sometimes be a "bully" so that my kids know my reactions are about my internal overload, not their worth. #NeurodivergentParenting #AuDHD #SensoryOverload #GentleParenting
