The ADHD Overwhelm Decoder

The ADHD Overwhelm Decoder is a free 3-minute reflective quiz that helps women identify the specific pattern behind their stuck moments, whether that's difficulty starting tasks, mental overload, emotional friction, depleted capacity, or need for urgency to engage. It is not a diagnostic tool. It is built by Lisa Brooks, a Registered Clinical Counsellor and Occupational Therapist, and gives a personalized result along with one practical strategy to try immediately.

You already know what you're supposed to do. The harder question is why your brain or body won't let you do it. This short quiz identifies which of five patterns is creating the most friction for you right now: difficulty accessing the starting point, too many competing thoughts, emotional threat attached to simple tasks, depleted nervous system capacity, or a brain that needs urgency to engage. Takes about 3 minutes. You'll get a personalized result and one small strategy matched to your specific pattern.
