Wait what did I come into this thread for again? Oh yeah, ADHD!

Wait what did I come into this thread for again? Oh yeah, ADHD!

Hey all! I decided to kick start a sweet little space for us to gather and talk ADHD!!

You can read the Topic Tuesday discussion (at which I was a guest) here.

Some of my go to resources:

ADDitude - Online Magazine/resource for all things ADHD

Three Pillars - My preference for explaining the experience of ADHD without relying on the DSM-V (scroll to bottom and work your way up the list)

How to ADHD - A Youtube channel with tips, tricks, strategies, how to guides, life hacks, you name it

Russel Barkley - a world renowned psychiatrist who has been at the forefront of research into ADHD, its neurochemical markers, and its impacts on daily experience, particularly in regards to executive dysfunction. The link is to an hour-long video aimed at parents of kids with ADHD. He also has one for adults with ADHD (with actionable tips!).

This is a space to talk about your experiences, struggles, strategies, and just an all-round safe spot to be a big pile of chaotic energy right here!!

@Jynx @Shaz51 I’m getting nowhere with this A-frame storage. Stupid walls.

And I’m gutted because I can’t talk to @Former-Member - He painted timber. I’m devastated 😭 Shh 🤫 Don’t tell him that you can never take me seriously.

Now I have to go back downstairs to take my vitamins (sigh)

What happened to days of laying on the couch watching movies 😏

Hahaha @Glisten I will be mindful not to paint any timber around you!! Is it a pet peeve, or a wood-worker no-no mayhaps?

teehee

@Shaz51 been all cold and cloudy down here 😑

@Former-Member 'fake it till you make it' has, disappointingly, worked for me at times 😅
