ADHD Sheppey

@Simone_Biles I support children and families with ADHD. I've met so many girls who look up to you as their role model. They'll love you even more now. You are an inspiration on and off the gymnastics floor.

the outpouring love & support I’ve received has made me realize I’m more than my accomplishments and gymnastics which I never truly believed before. 🤍

Introducing, Bert, the Happy Tally. He gets a quick 'tap' on the head when I'm having a happy or positive thought or if I get a great email, a smile on Zoom, a compliment or if I've achieved something great. What do you do to recognise the positive aspects of your day?!

@patmarsh Classic!

The big news today, is that Astronomers have seen the back of a black hole for the first time. Thereby proving that Albert Einstein's theory was correct. Albert did a lot of good for the world. Unlike his brother Frank.

Having a deep understanding of how ADHD affects your loved one is imperative. A visit to the cinema was a struggle and we’d leave before the film had even started. We learned that this sort of environment wasn’t right for him so chose other activities and had a much happier boy.

Advice about a shirt to raise awareness for ADHD, or #ADHDinWomen ~ what would you use as a slogan(text) or a great picture? Help us with some ideas! Please & thank you!! @AskADHD #askadhd #adhdawareness @AlisaADHD @StationAdhd @ADHDSheppey @ADHD_Dundee @profamandakirby

@patmarsh Yes, Pat, but one or two. I’ll help you spend it!

I know that sharing your dreams is a bit like having to endure someone else’s holiday photos but... Last night I had the most vivid dream during which I won the Lottery! I remember the winning numbers. What do you think? Worth having a flutter?

@patmarsh @polarbearpirate @BBCRadioKent Lovely interview, I feel the energy as Adrian is speaking.

International best selling #Kent author Adrian Webster @polarbearpirate joins us after 3pm today @BBCRadioKent His new book Tiny Noticeable Things is aimed at businesses, but explains how we can all make a lasting impression on the people we meet. #TNTs

@ADHDSheppey has been busy over the last few months. We’ve taught our first cohort of Mini ADHD peer mentors, updated our ADHD Awesome psycho education programme and have been working with local schools. We’ve had a busy year so far!

@patmarsh Free postage?! I’ll buy a couple 😂

I know that the latest round of BBC cuts are having an impact across all services, but I honestly never thought that it would come to this.

@CarrieGrant1 Happy anniversary!

I genuinely don’t know how we found each another or why this works but it just does. The combination of love, trust, service, laughter, purpose and faith all got rolled into one. I love you so much David Grant and I’m so grateful for you. I reckon we’re about half way now 😍

Using the Life Wheel with our ADHD Peer Mentors has been a great success. ADHD Sheppey is still going strong and has been working hard, through Covid, supporting families with the challenges they’ve been facing. We’re nine years strong and have great plans for 2021!

@DaveRob11807409 I sure do, Dave. They’re a huge inspiration!

@ADHDSheppey Wow, you should be so proud of your work. You must get wet eyes sometimes, I know I would.

Watching young people evolve and become empowered by their ADHD is a joy to behold! Today we focussed on the benefits of a positive growth mindset. One of the cohort (11) quoted Mandela. She views failure as an opportunity to grow. She is going to be a fantastic Peer Mentor!

Tomorrow is the start of our brand new ADHD Awesome Peer Mentor Programme! Our first cohort will be a group of girls - all diagnosed with ADHD. They will be learning strategies on how to support, not only themselves, but their peers with ADHD. #MINIADHDCOACHES

My desk today - I needed to be able to exercise!

@Vikki_Rimmer @patmarsh Can’t wait to read this!

@patmarsh Pretty cold at the beach though, @patmarsh!

@ADHDSheppey I love it - that’s really cool!

I threw open the curtains expecting to see a total white out. Nothing more than a few halfhearted flakes, wafting about as if they’re in a old Hollywood musical. How is it in your part of #Kent this morning?
