Do you know how beautiful you are?
Caitlin Boyle does.
Caitlin Boyle is the catalyst behind Operation Beautiful.
Operation Beautiful is the title of Caitlin’s book and the name of her website.
But it’s so much more.
Operation Beautiful is a movement; a positive, wonderful, inspiring movement that every female in the world needs to know about.
Caitlin’s tagline on her book says it all: “Transforming the Way You See Yourself One Post-it Note at a Time”.

I’m about to tell you something earth shattering.
Are you ready?
Are you sure?
Your ADHD is affected by almost everything else in your life.
What? Yeah, that was it. What do you mean it wasn’t earth shattering?
Read it again.
It does not say that your ADHD affects almost every part of your life. It does, but you already knew that.

If you’ve read this blog for any length of time, you probably know that I suffer from depression. Depression is one of the things that may accompany ADHD. You see, ADHD never travels alone; it always brings something else along with it. Anxiety, depression, and learning disabilities are just a few.
I really believe that medication can go a long way in treating depression, and that often you need therapy as well. I don’t think it’s possible to truly treat depression otherwise.

As women with ADHD, it’s easy for us to neglect our health. We forget appointments and important self care, and we procrastinate about going to the doctor.
We can’t afford to be this casual about our health.
A couple of weeks ago my 22 year old daughter Caitlin found out that the cyst removed from her ovary was actually a malignant tumor. This came just 4 weeks after a similar surgery to remove a cyst in the same place. Thank goodness that she was diligent about her health, despite her ADHD.

Yesterday my husband Mark taught me a valuable lesson. (Shhh….don’t tell him I said so.)
Yesterday Mark had a vacation day and even though it was his vacation, he was gone a good part of the day. He got some work done on the car, ran some errands, and mowed the lawn. He even grilled dinner.
He was moving all day long.
