I have experience with mindfulness from my first pdoc and I still have a ton of mindfulness books and apps. I told him that mindfulness is difficult for me because of my ADHD.

I reluctantly agreed to try it again.

I just wish he understood how difficult it is for me to open up. He said that I was an open book but I’m not like that with everyone so it feels like my feelings aren’t being validated. I don’t know how to explain it in a way that he understands.
