how's everyone doing?
clearly I still have ADHD since I went into an editing vortex and forgot this place exists

You might not notice the broken trust, because we’re encouraged to keep pushing, treating every individual as a walking ATM, not a relationship to be nurtured and a person to be helped.
Soon, though, you run out of the gullible and all you’re left with is distrust.

Cats! Dogs! Geese! Laura Loomer! Look, now he’s attacking Taylor!

Like the last season before a show gets canceled for getting over-the-top and, at the same time, boring.

This election is about jobs, wages, climate, health care, abortion. Not his show. Your life.

so how's life over here?
is it really a cesspool?

I've been busy doing writer with ADHD stuff. and life stuff

[liz lewis @HealthyADHD]

was just thinking when I started writing about #ADHDwomen
I never thought it would be a huge public health topic the way it is now. I thought I could just write and then I'd magically find other women like me
how naive HA

[liz lewis @HealthyADHD]

@RabbleChorus this is good. exactly what I needed.
Make it ok for your daughter to be *herself* and then the ADHD stuff becomes sooooo much more manageable.
You're the best!!
I was already going this direction but you confirmed it

[liz lewis @HealthyADHD]

any parents of teenage girls diagnosed with #ADHD out there?
I have thoughts about the challenges....but I'd like to know what teenage girls actually feel about it.

also what the parents feel are the big challenges.

any input welcome

[liz lewis @HealthyADHD]

@RabbleChorus thank you for this!
I think what you're saying is so relevant.
moms in particular do this thing...they want to lead not allow the child to lead.
It's almost like they think they can mold their daughters and therefore keep them safe

[liz lewis @HealthyADHD]

@pdnell oh that's a great insight....thank you!

[liz lewis @HealthyADHD]

@DrMarielyH I’ve been feeling this way too.
I don’t know what’s going on cosmically speaking but something is off right now

[liz lewis @HealthyADHD]

@WhoTheAuDHDAmI sorry I missed this!
and you are 100% right. whenever someone tells me they don't want to even *try* medication I want to point them to these studies

Editing/rewriting chapters that I wrote two years ago is hilarious.
I haven't the foggiest idea what I was thinking so I end up rewriting quite a bit or changing my mind all together. **I"m actually enjoying this process**

knowing the etymology of "weird" makes me want to adopt it myself

c. 1400, "having power to control fate," from wierd (n.), from Old English wyrd "fate, chance, fortune; destiny; the Fates,"

[liz lewis @HealthyADHD]

I am real tired of people feeling bad about being pregnant, how they deliver their babies, and then being under scrutiny during the *hardest* period of their lives.
We are still held fully responsible for everything no matter the circumstances

Joe Biden has earned his place among the best and most consequential presidents in American history.

I am so proud to serve under his leadership, and thankful for his unwavering focus on what is best for our country.

I actually mention in my book the unfortunate effects of mindreading on our relationships.
we aren't very good at it, and it really affects our communication

[liz lewis @HealthyADHD]

I made a 3 sentence post on another platform 36 hrs ago and people are still responding with hate messages about stuff I **didn't actually write**
But in their head they think I did? 🤣

It's like they're mindreading and doing a very bad job at it.
