Zoe Plant Counselling, Coaching and Supervision

Ever notice how ADHD means you’re either impulse-buying a random gadget at 2am, or you’re laser-focused on saving every penny, no in-between? 🙃

Some days, it’s “Treat yourself!” with a side of guilt. Other days, it’s spreadsheets, budgets, and swearing off coffee shop lattes forever. The pendulum swings, and somehow both extremes feel like survival tactics.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. ADHD brains can struggle with balance, especially around money. It’s not laziness or lack of willpower; it’s how our brains are wired. And it’s okay to have compassion for yourself on those wild financial rides.

How do you find your middle ground? Or are you still searching for it (like the receipts from last month’s shopping spree)?

We’re taught to celebrate certain milestones as proof that life is going 'right.' Marriage. Babies. Promotions. Houses. And those things can definitely matter.

But there are so many quieter milestones that deserve recognition too.
The ones that don’t come with cards or parties.
The ones that take everything you have just to reach.

Leaving what’s hurting you.
Choosing recovery.
Showing up for therapy.
Starting again when you didn’t plan to.

Those count. Massively.

So today I'm reminding you to cheer for yourself, and to know that your milestone still counts, maybe more than you even realise right now.

Stay Strong ❤️
