Hey ladies, do you or someone you love struggle with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)? If so, you’re not alone. ADHD affects millions of people worldwide, and managing its symptoms can be challenging. While medication can be helpful, did you know prayer can also be an effective tool for managing ADHD symptoms? As a coach with ADHD, I’d like to share with you the benefits of prayer and how it can help you or your loved one.
Understanding the Emotional Impact of ADHD
Living with ADHD can be emotionally draining, and it’s common for people with ADHD to struggle with low self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. However, connecting with others who understand what you’re going through can be incredibly helpful. Participating in a support group or online community might help you feel less isolated and get useful insight into managing your symptoms. The Bible tells us in Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 (NLT), “Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble.”

How Prayer Can Help You Manage ADHD Symptoms
Prayer is an effective tool that can help manage ADHD symptoms. Research has shown that it can reduce anxiety and improve mood, which are two common challenges faced by people with ADHD. Additionally, prayer can help you focus your thoughts and attention, which can be beneficial when managing distractions and impulsivity. You can use scripture as a source of comfort and inspiration. For example, Philippians 4:6-7 (NLT) says, “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” I have learned to pray about everything, no matter what it is. When I am frustrated or have no clue why I feel the way I do, I pray.
Incorporating prayer into your daily routine can be a simple and effective way to manage ADHD symptoms. You can set aside time each day to pray or incorporate prayer into daily activities, such as before meals or bedtime. Mindfulness and meditation on God’s Word can also be beneficial for managing ADHD symptoms, helping to improve focus and attention while reducing stress and anxiety. Psalm 46:10 (NLT) reminds us, “Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.”
