Other People No, I don't mean to imply that you've got actual other personalities in your head. That would be something altogether different than ADHD. And I don't mean that you hear voices, like schizophrenics do. I guess what I do mean is that your head is always crowded with other people's opinions and judgements of you. Does that make sense? Or is it just me? Is someone calling a therapist right now? Cause really, I'm OK. That ADHD Thing In general, those of us with ... Read More about How Many People are Living in Your Head?
An ADD Woman in Real Life
Yep, that's me. Brenda Nicholson, in real life. No makeup, no filters, not even a shower. (Hey - I'm being real here.) For a long time, this blog, and everything associated with it, has been neglected. You may have noticed that I've been updating the way An ADD Woman looks and feels, and I've started on my Facebook page too. Instagram is next, and Pinterest.

One of the books that I've been reading is "The Artist's Way, A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity" by Julia Cameron. I honestly don't know why I am reading it and doing (some) of the exercises within, other than the fact that it had been calling to me for a few weeks before I bought it. I actually just read the free sample, thinking that would be ... Read More about The Way You Were
Mindfulness and Meditation and Just Breathing
My daughter Sarah and I were at the store the other day and I happened to be looking at the magazines. There were two I was interested in - both had the topic of mindfulness on the cover. And then Sarah said, "Mindfulness. I am so sick of hearing about that." I get it. Sarah has a full time job, an almost 6 year old, and she goes to school part time, plus she does all the things we women tend to do - clean the house, cook the meals (plan the meals and buy the groceries), and on and ...
