  • Sorry I’ve been a bit quiet the last few weeks despite saying I wouldn’t be. I was away on holiday and then we got back to reality and had a wake to organise and a house to sort and of course holiday blues to recover from! While I was catching up on life, something small Read more

  • So today was a day…

    So…today was a day… Today’s post was going to be a day in the life, and I am still going to write that up and put together the vids/pics I have from today into a video. So don’t worry, that is still coming. It will go into details about my day and how crappy I Read more

  • Trauma doesn’t knock…

    Today was a good day, overall, no real drama. The issue is I was then on my own, weirdly when I’m out in the world, masking, I can cope with everything.  As soon as I’m on my own, I crumble.  It is in those moment that my life hits me, square in the face.  Triggered Read more

  • Weekend thoughts…

    I spend a lot of time thinking about ADHD, obviously, and people’s attitudes towards it. I don’t mean people looking in at it, I mean those experiencing it. I have one friend with ADHD, who despite dropping out of university to have a child, is wildly successful in their field.  They have never let their Read more

  • I had therapy recently relating to something that happened to me when I was younger and unfortunately that has brought a lot of things I had repressed to the surface.  I have to start a different type of therapy following a break to “sit in the space of being a victim”. I’ve been having a Read more

  • The Rage

    So today we went for coffee after work at a well known establishment. It was here I experienced rage on a ridiculous level. I had ordered my normal drink and it was not right, now this should not have illicited the huge levels of emotion I felt. I kept this mostly to myself (well my Read more

  • Just a little rant…

    I’ve seen a lot in the media recently suggesting we are all a little ADHD or that ADHD is not real.  And that the symptoms are just normal every day things. Whilst I know some people do have this view, I strongly disagree.  For a start I have spoken others who definitely do not experience Read more

  • Just a short one…

    Today I managed to accidentally trigger my own fight or flight highly on edge anxiety.  First thing.  Which meant I spent the rest of the day trying to just survive through an internalised anxiety attack. But hey, I survived! We all have good and bad days and sometimes you just have to celebrate managing to make Read more

  • Weekend Thoughts…

    As I sit and start some work for the week ahead I am feeling pretty reflective on the past week. As I said in my last post my mental health has not been great this week, and that has made it difficult for me to get on with everyday tasks.  Despite that I had people Read more

  • Random Update

    When I started the blog on Monday night/Tuesday morning my plan was always to have it as a weekly blog with an actual focus.  So here I am a few days later already breaking that! I’m not going to lie, this week has been a huge struggle for me mentally.  Something triggered some trauma for Read more
