ADHD & Dating: Dopamine, Rumination & Emotional Cycles

​Having ADHD and dating can feel especially tough. Many people notice cycles of dopamine-hunting when using dating apps, forgetting to reply to messages, or getting caught in rumination, rejection sensitivity, and fantasising through limerence.

​In this session, we’ll explore why dating can feel so emotionally intense with ADHD, what’s actually happening in the brain around dopamine and attachment, and the patterns Kim commonly sees in coaching. We’ll focus on practical ways to recognise these cycles, protect your energy, and approach dating in a way that feels more grounded, intentional, and kind to yourself — without shutting down or overanalysing everything.
