To improve your mood, exercise.
To think more clearly, meditate.
To understand the world, read.
To understand yourself, write.
To help people, help yourself.
To make new friends, travel.
To smile more, fall in love.
To learn fast, have fun.
To live more, be still.

[Samaa Al-Moussalli 🇬🇧🧠 @Smousali1974]

"When determining the size or complexity of a new habit ask yourself, "What can I stick to—even on my worst day?"

Start there. Master the art of showing up. Then advance."

@iammeggan My loved one is 20 years out of a psych ward. It took a few yrs to find his footing in this world; 1 day @ a time; 1 foot in front of the other & lots of hard work. Today he thrives, & no one would ever guess what his journey has been. I pray u will be as blessed.

The best time to start healing from a crisis is before it starts. Giving yourself the excuse to eat bad food, drink alcohol, or smoke pot to deal with the pain only prolongs it. Never let a crisis be your excuse to hurt yourself.

@ADHDaveyMcTwitt I’m so sorry for your all to common experience. Thank you for sharing.

What didn’t the professionals tell you on your ADHD journey that you wish they had because you had to learn it the hard way, which took much longer, and was at a greater cost? #ADHD #ADHDparents #ADHDADULTS

Learning has a very real effect on neurons: It makes it easier for them to fire and to continue firing. There are approximately a thousand trillion synapses in the brain, #learning

Research indicates a link between low mood and low vitamin D levels, so I encourage patients to take at least 2,000 to 5,000 IU/day through the winter to keep brain chemistry, especially neurotransmitter action,humming. Omega 3's can be helpful too. #research #brainhealthmatters

@SelkirkSays The truth is, I have never seen anything work as well as meds. On the other hand, while it takes more work than taking meds, a combination of tools and strategies, which you handpick, will get you almost there. It is a process, but there is hope. Hang in there.

[Regina M. Cashman, M.A. @addcoach1]

@SelkirkSays The trick is finding the best combination, of all the suggestions mentioned, that works for you. No one thing will do the job. Nobody can tell you which combination of tools and strategies will work for you. You have to go through them all using the process of elimination.

[Regina M. Cashman, M.A. @addcoach1]

@SelkirkSays The most important thing is to have the person you are closest to support you in the ways that you will need. Working with a therapist or a coach on a regular basis can help you and your loved one navigate this journey with grace.

[Regina M. Cashman, M.A. @addcoach1]

@SelkirkSays I’m an ADHD Brain Health Coach. All of the suggestions above are worth trying. Other things that have worked for my clients who can’t take meds: MCT Oil, aerobic, exercise, yoga, meditation, a schedule, or at least a list in your notes app of things you need/want to do each day.

Misophonia is a strong sensitivity to specific noises.

Calmer® is a life-changing product that gently reduces hearing sensitivity without blocking any sound.

[Samaa Al-Moussalli 🇬🇧🧠 @Smousali1974]

Educate yourself about things. Study hard what interests you the most. Don't worry about what others think of you, that's none of your business. Train your mind to think, doubt, and question. That's how you grow. 🧠

[sydni | what in the ADHD? @WhatTheADHD]

Researchers have estimated that, by the age of 12, children with ADHD hear 20,000 more negative, critical, or corrective messages from authority figures than their neurotypical peers.

This is believed to be the biggest cause of Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria.
