ADHD - a Ferrari with bicycle breaks.

AuDHD - a Ferrari with an emergency stop button?

What do you think?

Are there any fellow warriors and weirdos on here?

Come say hello 🫀✨🗡️

Some musings on AuDHD strengths and challenges for Neurodiversity Celebration Week - it all feels far more nuanced than 'superpowers' and 'deficits'.

Any other AuDHDers here have a penchant for the existential?

There's something about the depth of these big unsolvable questions I can turn over in my mind for hours - perhaps as a mental stim.

Explains the particle physics PhD, exploring Eastern philosophy and now a fascination with psychology.

It's 'just' a trip to London.

Nope, it's:

- researching the venue and how to get there
- planning train times and adding them to my calendar
- deciding what I will wear and laying it out
- packing my rucksack with sensory aides
- resourcing the day before
- protecting the day after for recovery

I had forgotten just how much I love this game.

It's been ages since I played Stardew Valley and so much has been added, which I am gradually discovering.

I find it great for winding down, and the changing seasons are gorgeous.

I'm trying a beach-based farm this time.

Does anyone else play?

I've been in wait mode all day...

2 hours to go until my info session about support and resources for late-discovered Autistic/ADHD/AuDHD folx.

For the last minute-ers, you can still get a ticket here:
buytickets.at/curiouscoach...

And if you can't make it at 6 pm (GMT), it will be recorded.

For the UK-based newly discovered ADHDers/Autistics/AuDHDers:

I'm running an info session tomorrow evening about the support available for adults:

- assessment pathways
- Access to Work
- my favourite books/blogs/podcasts
- communities
- coaching

If you're curious:
curious-coaching.co.uk/events

Current hyperfocuses include:

- planning my trip to Japan
- learning Japanese
- AURORA (the singer, not the northern lights)
- somatic experiences of dysregulation
- learning more piano pieces by Ludovico Einaudi

Plus an extra space for whatever catches my curiosity each day.

Hello world, I'm new here and love to connect with:

🏳️‍🌈 queer folx - especially the late bloomers
📚 those who have more than one book on the go at a time

🌱 green fingered, lovers of nature
