ADHD doesn’t just affect focus—it disrupts emotional regulation, which impacts everything from sleep to relationships. When emotions feel intense, unclear, or impossible to manage, daily life becomes overwhelming.
Verenigma helps you build emotional clarity using AI-powered affect labeling. By learning to track and understand what you’re feeling, you can reduce emotional reactivity, improve how you connect with others, and finally get the rest your brain needs.
Our research and app trials show that Verenigma helps people who commonly struggle with emotional regulation, including those with:
✔ ADHD & ADD
✔ Rejection Sensitivity Dysphoria (RSD)
✔ Sleep Issues & Tiredness
✔ Average 37% improvement in emotional regulation
✔ 47% of users reported improved sleep
✔ 58% of users experienced a decrease in daytime fatigue
Showing that emotional clarity enhances physical energy.
✔ 68% of users experienced an improvement in emotional regulation
Leading to better mood, resilience, and decision-making.
✔ 74% of users experienced a decrease in depressive symptoms
Living with ADHD often means feeling everything more intensely—from frustration to distraction to burnout. Emotional responses can be hard to manage, and small triggers can lead to big reactions.
This is often linked to alexithymia, a difficulty identifying and describing emotions. It’s surprisingly common—💡 43% of people with ADHD also experience alexithymia, making emotional regulation even harder to access.
When emotions go unprocessed, the result is mental fatigue, disrupted sleep, emotional outbursts, and strain in relationships. You might find yourself stuck in cycles of stress, overthinking, and overwhelm.
Our diagram (pictured right) highlights how emotional dysregulation, and symptoms like sleep struggles or emotional sensitivity often overlap.
✔ Better sleep
✔ Healthier relationships
✔ Less overwhelm, more control
Verenigma helps you track, understand, and regulate your emotions—so you can feel more stable, better rested, and more in control of your day.
This diagram illustrates how emotional dysregulation connects to depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and fatigue, with overlapping challenges like inattention, hypersensitivity, emotional confusion, and sleep difficulties. Many people experience a mix of these symptoms, making emotional regulation a key factor in improving overall well-being.
Alexithymia is common in ADHD, ADD, and AuDHD—making emotional regulation even more difficult. When it’s hard to recognise or describe what you’re feeling, it can affect how you communicate, how well you sleep, and how connected you feel in your relationships.
Unprocessed emotions can build up as stress, lead to misunderstandings, and make it harder to wind down at night.
💡 43% of people with ADHD also have alexithymia.
Take the TAS-DIF test below to see if alexithymia is affecting you.
This chart shows how users who recorded more voice notes with Verenigma experienced a reduction in their PSQI sleep duration score.
That means they were sleeping longer—a sign of healthier, more restorative rest.
Users also saw a reduction in PSQI sleep latency (how long it took them to get to sleep) and sleep difficulty, getting to and staying asleep.
By helping you process emotions throughout the day, Verenigma allows your mind to wind down more easily at night, reducing racing thoughts and emotional tension that can keep you awake.
The takeaway? The more consistently you use affect labeling, the better your sleep can become.
ADHD isn’t just about attention—it’s about how emotions feel and how they’re managed. Many people with ADHD experience stronger, faster emotional responses and struggle with regulating them. This can lead to frustration, overwhelm, and mental exhaustion, making focus, motivation, and even sleep harder to maintain.
When emotions feel out of control, it’s easy to get stuck in cycles of stress, distraction, and fatigue. Emotional regulation isn’t just about “handling feelings”—it’s about creating the stability that allows your mind to focus, rest, and reset.
Verenigma helps you track and label emotions, making them easier to process. By improving emotional clarity, you’d feel more in control, less drained, and better able to focus on what matters—without emotional dysregulation pulling you off course.
Ease of Excitation, RSD, Sleep, and Emotional Clarity
Struggling with emotional overwhelm, restless nights, or sensitivity to rejection? Ease of Excitation (EOE), Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD), and sleep issuesare deeply connected to emotional clarity—the ability to identify and regulate emotions.
When emotions feel vague or unmanageable, RSD triggers intense distress, EOE leads to sensory overload, and unresolved feelings cause racing thoughts and disrupted sleep. Misinterpreting emotions—like stress as hunger or anxiety as anger—can drive emotional eating and exhaustion.
By improving emotional clarity through affect labeling and structured routines, you can reduce overwhelm, improve sleep, and regain control. Verenigma helps you break the cycle for greater emotional balance and well-being.

ADHD often intensifies with hormonal changes. Fluctuations in estrogen—especially just after ovulation and before a period— disrupts focus, increase impulsivity, heighten emotional overwhelm, and worsens rejection sensitivity dysphoria (RSD). Sleep struggles, also tend to spike during these times, leaving you feeling exhausted and emotionally raw. Understanding these patterns is the first step toward relief.
One simple, science-backed tool is affect labelling: accurate naming what you're feeling about stress, anxiety, depression reduces its intensity. Verenigma gives accurate real time markers to navigate ADHD, hormones, and high expectations to manage these emotional cycles. Using this tool to understand that pressure creates space for more calm, control, and self-compassion for better sleep.
