Building ADHD-Friendly Mornings That Actually Work

Mornings with ADHD can feel impossible. You set an alarm with good intentions, hit snooze multiple times, finally drag yourself out of bed, and then stand in your kitchen wondering what you were supposed to do next. By the time you leave the house, you are already overwhelmed, frustrated, and behind schedule.

If this sounds familiar, you are not alone. And more importantly, you are not failing at something that should be simple. ADHD brains work differently, and mornings require executive function skills that are often hardest to access first thing in the day.

The good news? You do not need a perfect morning routine. You need one that works with your brain, not against it.
