Parents! No one expects you to be superman or wonder woman, though it sure feels like the demands of daily life require just those kinds of super powers. Remember what I said earlier this week about putting yourself in “timeout” to catch your breath? I hope this weekend you do just that! Have a great one!
Delivered from Distraction a book by Hallowell & Ratey has brought me much hope. ADHD can be overwhelming and make you feel like you’re losing your mind and that you’re all alone in your struggle. Books like this one, help you verbalize and translate what’s happening in your head. It’s a great starting point to learn about ADHD. I usually suggest it to older teens and adults who suspect that they may have ADHD or newly diagnosed individuals.
