    ADHDers! I’m super excited to share that I created and designed two 25 card decks of ADHD inattentive type traits and hyperactive-impulsive type traits. Each deck includes trait descriptions, examples tailored to adults, and coping strategies PRE-ORDER: adhdtraits.com

    Anyone else with ADHD feel guilty for not catching up with certain people that actually mean a lot to you? Even though they probably understand, it still makes me feel so unsettled on the inside. There’s always a lot going on and I’m so easily overwhelmed

    Asking someone with ADHD what happened to the project they said they were working on is a HIPPA violation

    Many ADHDers need time to sit around and do nothing until we’re mentally prepared, extra time to get ready, buffer time after the deadline, and just more time because we’re time blind 😫

    A woman on tik tok was explaining some of the current issues with dating culture and she made an interesting point that “we have a gap in human connection and a lack of safe comfortable gathering spaces and we don’t have enough organic ways to meet people”

    So a new study just debunked the claim that children outgrow ADHD. The study found that 90% of the children continued to experience ADHD traits in adulthood. It also concluded that ADHD is a lifelong condition

    People’s parents not telling them about their diagnosis is more common than people think and it’s not just with ADHD

    Auliʻi Cravalho says the success of ‘MOANA’ helped her buy a house for her mom: “We lived in a one-bedroom apartment in Mililani when I was cast. I slept in the bedroom, my mom slept on the couch. She gave me everything. I bought my mommy a house. She's happily retired”

    Just a reminder that ADHD and also Neurodivergence in general isn’t spoken about in real life as much as it’s talked about online. There’s still a lot of stigma and misconceptions about these conditions so many of us spend a lot of time talking about our experiences online

    “It’s not that hard, it shouldn’t take you too long” Please, I have to complete the ADHD olympics before I even get started. Distractions, procrastination, analysis paralysis, overwhelm, researching and then going down the rabbit hole, the list goes on
