Late Diagnosis

Trouble sleeping?
Try this for a week and see what happens

Nothing Much Happens Bedtime Stories For Adults.jpeg

Nothing Much Hqppens: ADHD can lead to a busy mind. Nothing Much Happens gives the active ADHD brain, that is constantly thinking, something to think about. It is just interesting enough to keep your attention, and boring enough to allow you to sleep. Give it a good go for a few nights and see what happens! You can find them on Spotify too! "Bedtime stories are like a soft nest for the mind. They are a place for it to rest so that it doesn't wander away and get into trouble, and in the world we're living in now it is so easy for it to find trouble. Try something different. Let me tell you a bedtime story. It's a simple story, in which nothing much happens, you feel good and then you fall asleep."

Fidgets For Focus

512ElementTerra_Tube_Shape_500x500.webp

Speks Magnetic Balls have become one of my favorite fidgets. You can fiddle with them without drawing attention to yourself. They're oddly satisfying as hand play, for creating structures and can be squeezed the same way you squeeze clay, but without any residue! I got a set for my daughter who sits at a computer most of her day for work and she let me know these are "one of the best things I've ever owned!" and another text later that week that read: "these magnet beads, obsessed, they're incredible!"
