Here’s my list of what I’m exploring this week.
What I Wrote
Read my article, Stop Obsessing! 6 Strategies for Taming the Worry Wart and Rumination– on Medium.com.
It’s important to recognize what is normal obsessing in the context of having ADHD- the whole “getting stuck” scenario- VS a comorbid condition seen with ADHD that might be a more serious form of obsessing/ruminating, such as in anxiety or depression.

What I’m Watching

What I’m Excited About
I get a lot of emails and guess what the #1 question I get is:
Where can I find a professional in my area who can help me?
I’ve researched the handful of ADHD directories online and decided that I’m going to develop the best one, ever. One that is user friendly. One that doesn’t frustrate you or make your eyes hurt. One that is comprehensive, where you can find therapists, doctors, coaches, educators, clinics, etc. One that is up to date, and much more.
We’re almost ready to launch, but if you are a professional or have a service or product and would like to be first in line or want to know more it, email me at support@addconsults.com.
