The ADHD Alliance, the national ADHD support group I co founded and co chair turns 3 today!

What started as a small local support group has blossomed into the largest work based ADHD support group in the UK with some 1721 members

The work continues to make the CJS neuroinclusive for all

Afternoon folks. I might possibly be featuring on BBC Radio 4 show "you and yours" tmrw at (the very precise time of 12.04)

I gave them a soundbite on Friday.

I am discussing GPs cancelling share care agreements for ADHD patients.

Having enthusiastically made all my Xmas Lego in a couple of magical Lego filled days.

This is me now.

Transitioning from watching Black Doves on Netflix to watching Paddington is a trip now.

I now see Paddington as a hardened contract killer.

Which given his propensity of escorting the dead to heaven is quite fitting.

Imposter Syndrome is compounded for people with ADHD because we often can’t remember most of our successes.

Even the ones we do remember, we often dismiss and discount them by comparing them to our biggest failures.

Festive ADHD public service announcement (ho! ho! ho!)

I just reordered my meds and got this notification. (This is from Pysch UK)

So ADHD folks, please check your stock and make sure you reorder in time for the festive period.

Spent the day with Cumbria Police talking about ADHD and the Criminal Justice system. I discussed the importance of screening for ADHD and how officers can help those with neurodivergent conditions navigate a very neurotypical criminal justice system

Today in the Telegraph.

Now I agree there may well be a conversation to be had about Police wasting money.

But let me assure you. Cultural change is needed. And that requires initiatives that are often led by....DEI officers and teams (pulls shocked face)

Take your war on woke elsewhere guys.

One of the most unbelievable things I've ever read. Utterly shameful. As a society we need to do better. People with disabilities are not 2nd class citizens.

Govt refuses to diagnose ADHD

Some self medicate w/ drugs

Return on neglect? Prison

"and the fact that some with ADHD then struggled to hold down jobs, and some ended up taking drugs, especially cannabis, which could lead to them committing crimes"

Today I attended a session talking about the values we hold dear in policing and how we engage our workforce to adopt those values.

I pointed out, decisions made by leadership that are contrary to those values.....don't exactly help that mission.

Hi Daniel. Would ADHD screening pilots in UK police custodies be of any interest? I've been heavily involved in two of them. Would be happy to speak to you about them.

Deeply concerning. Solidarity to my ADHD and neurodiverse brothers and sisters in America. I hope there are some checks and balances that will stop the potential damage here.

This study seems interesting. Tldr: something genetic is causing kids with ADHD to also have fucky melatonin production, and (less clearly) sleep disruption makes ADHD symptoms worse.

First post on here. Hello all! I have combined adhd and dyspraxia, and run the ADHD Alliance, a national adhd support group for police officers and police staff. I probably do most of my posting on LinkedIn. But will try to be present here.
