8 Rules of Wellbeing: An Aid Kit for Women with ADHD

As a busy mum, now diagnosed with ADHD, I reach for my wellbeing “first aid kit” when I’m feeling unmotivated, irritable, or just plain down on myself.

I unwittingly created this kit for myself many years ago, well before my diagnosis, in fact. I had no choice but to adopt many of these strategies, believing that I was just pre-destined to feel perpetually overwhelmed, anxious, and never quite good enough. Little did I know there was a medical explanation for these oppressing emotions.

Maybe you’re a fellow mom or woman with ADHD who is barely treading water these days. You’ve been overwhelmed and under pressure. Your head is busy and feels like it’ll explode at any minute.

To read more about my ADHD wellbeing kit check out my guest blog on ADDitude.com, a global ADHD magazine which is the most credible ADHD resource out there. If you suspect you may have ADHD or want to learn more, this is the oracle.
