The best thing the NHS has done for me? They recommended me this ADHD support group where you SIT AND WHITTLE SPOONS with other PEOPLE who have ADHD?!? I'd never tried this before but omg it was SO SATISFYING and your mind just switches off it's lush! You can literally see my mind thinking Just giving it a go here as I had no clue if I was doing it right or wrong 🫠 I'm barely smiling the whole evening cuz I'm concentrating so hard lol I'm quite ambidextrous- especially when it comes to things other than writing so here you can see I switch hands quite a lot! It's an 8 week course! And this is my progress so far!
