See in ADHD

I coach a lot of people around their health. How to set up exercise routines is one thing but eating healthy when you have ADHD is another, with its own unique challenges.

In this episode, Lisa Feinberg, a Registered Nurse and ADHD Coach, shares with me some of her tips and tricks.

First of all, she knows what works for her and furthermore, for her clients. Listen in as we discuss diet and exercise and how she keeps in shape!

LISA'S AWESOME QUOTE:

"When you come from what's amazing, that's what you find; that's who a person can be."

Eating Healthy

Here are 3 ADHD-friendly helpful tips to help:

1) Buy Vega One protein powder

2) Prep Cook Day

3) Find fresh pre-cooked options

Lisa is a fan of Vega One.

Lisa also explains how preparing some meals on Sundays for the rest of the week can help you stick to healthy options, like Salad-In-A-Jar.

Or, buying some inexpensive pre-cooked meals can help if you are the non-cooking type. (Rotisserie Chicken)

Lisa loves to help others by teaching and sharing what she knows because she knows what its like to set up systems for yourself when you have ADHD.

So, feel free to join the facebook.com/groups/seeinadhd See in ADHD FB Group, and tag her.

She'd love to meet you.

ENCORE EPISODE

Scott Latty knows how it feels being misunderstood with ADHD. He also knows that ADHD itself is misunderstood. He’s out to change that by producing a film that will help people connect with that pain.

Scott shares with me details about his life which, are pretty common for folks with ADHD. He has trouble focusing, attending to details, and engaging with mundane tasks.

Yet, there’s a spark of genius shining brilliantly when the focus is on something interesting.

That’s why he knows getting this movie out there is important. It’s a big goal, but thinking big is something he’s really good at!

Scott’s Awesome Quote:

“ADHD is not a virus, it’s not a disease, it’s nothing to be afraid of.”

Misunderstood with ADHD

Scott recounts the feeling of never being understood. He explains, that even in how he expresses himself at times can be frustrating; hence, the title of his film, Misunderstood.

Although he knows that on occasion he comes off as argumentative, on the inside he’s thinking, “Listen to what I’m saying,” because he wants to be heard.

The misunderstandings that come from missing social cues and a having a racy mind can take their toll, but he keeps up a good attitude as he shares stories from his life.

Although the film never speaks of ADHD, it is the underlying issue, Scott says. His message is about acceptance. ADHD and other mental conditions should not invalidate a person.

Please go visit Scott on Facebook and let him know you heard him here because he wants to know what your thoughts are on what he’s doing or, better yet, ask how you can help him.

Feel free to leave comments or questions below.

Mark Williams was the undiagnosed ADHD child growing up. He didn't really believe he was "thick and stupid" as he was called. But his anxiety and dyslexia looked like emotional and learning problems making childhood difficult. School and later, employment, didn't come easy. Fortunately, he eventually married the love of his life and together they had a baby. But what came next was anything but "happily ever after".

His wife suffered postpartum depression after a difficult childbirth. And soon, Mark too, plunged into despair. Finally, after seeing many doctors, at age 41, he did get a diagnosis of ADHD. With treatment came a new outlook on life and a new passion to help others who suffer just as he did.

MARK'S AWESOME QUOTE:

"My story starts from in school when I was told I was thick and stupid."

The Undiagnosed ADHD Child

What happens when you were the undiagnosed ADHD child? In Mark's case, he's decided to help other's like him. His efforts include helping create International Father's Mental Health Day in the UK. It's focus is to help raise awareness on men's mental health, specifically father's issues.

All dads suffer a special mix of stress because of the interrelationships that come with family. But when their biological make up includes any disease or disorder, that compounds the stress. As awareness and access to mental health services increases, the potential for successful outcomes like Mark's aren't just possible, they're probable. And after all, our dads and families deserve that!

Mark Williams does all he can to focus on fathers' mental health issues. He even created Father's Reaching Out, when he saw first hand, the need for support for men who experience postpartum depression. He explains it's like giving permission to open up as a father. Please be sure to check out his website, reachingoutpmh.co.uk, below or Tweet him!

One area, he explains, where ADHD medication can make a difference, is in dealing with the boring stuff, like organizing or washing dishes. As he says, “You don’t want to have to invent a new way to wash the dishes every day.” Being able to better focus allows you to get to doing what you want to do instead.
