@BarssFreddie Nothing nicer to listen to than a Scot speaking (even Glaswegians sometimes 😉). …. Well other than beautifully played Bagpipes.

@Charlygotyou This kind of proves my opinion that it is never too late to get an ADHD DX (was 62 for me) and I’m still learning about myself and what a huge impact ADHD has on who I am.

@Charlygotyou I had no idea this habit was related to my ADHD! (🤣)

@Charlygotyou OMG (I’m the Queen of parentheses). It’s like an addiction I have to read through everything I write (every time) and remove some so there is actually some “normal text”.

@Eman_8282 TV wasn’t around till I was 9 and it was B&W , So One in my generation was the norm and Colour TV turned up mid to late 70’s

@NoNonsenseND A very comprehensive explanation and sadly yes the physical damage can cause a varied mild to severe and debilitating impact on our health .

@JamesMelville It’s logistics. The Jam adheres to the scone creating a stable base for the cream 🧐

@StructuredSucc The blight of my 68 years, causing multiple areas of physical impact. My brain hardly stops whirring around and I know anxiety and the effects are real. Because we often suffer indecision, can be distracted easily etc our nerve centre is like a maelstrom 😖

@newstart_2024 Only for some.Planning, being organised, preempting potential issues etc got me through my 49 year career with no DX. It wasn’t always easy but my very ADHD brain works best when it is both organised and has the freedom to think outside the box. Retirement not so easy 🤪

“ADHD is not a disorder of not knowing what to do. It’s a disorder of not doing what you already know.”
Dr. Russell Barkley just delivered one of the clearest explanations of ADHD I’ve ever heard.
He says the brain can be split in two: the back part acquires knowledge, the front part (the executive system) uses it. ADHD acts like a meat cleaver that severs the two.
You already have the skills and information other people your age have. You just can’t apply them when it counts.
That’s why life becomes an endless series of last-minute crises. You’re time-blind — you can only deal with what’s right in front of you. The further away a goal or deadline is, the less real it feels.
The solution isn’t teaching more skills. It’s changing the environment at the exact point where the problem occurs — the “point of performance.”
It’s a game-changing way to understand why traditional approaches often fail.

@DunbarNews @VickyMcClure A request to please explain to the old man about one of his completely unrelated insights. Generally I doubt that “Women have any specific time lines/frames in our lives that let us know how we are tracking per se compared to men!! ADHD Brain me thinks🧐
