My older sister, Marie, wishes that she knew she had ADHD when she was in elementary or middle school. It would have reduced a lot of the confusion, poor self-esteem, and bad mojo that she dragged around like a big, bulky, burdensome sack. If we knew what ADHD really was back in the 1980s, and […]

I need to find something full-time and permanent, which means doing what I hate most: job hunting. There are few things on God’s green earth more depressing and degrading than job hunting (except […]

I was talking to a mom the other day whose 12 year old daughter was diagnosed with ADHD in 2nd grade.

As someone with boundary-recognition disorder, I’ve worked all my life to learn where the line is for others. Comedians understand the importance of finding (and sometimes crossing) that line. In the context of a comedy club, it’s socially acceptable to flaunt the audience’s line. At work? Not that much. Oversharing at Work I recently started […]

Like the neighborhood bully, that tormenting task taunts you week after week from the top of your to-do list. You want to vanquish it, but you can’t – and you’re not sure why.

Helping our kids learn to get themselves organized is one of the greatest challenges we face as parents, isn’t it? We all appreciate how important it is for our kids to learn to “get organized,” because we understand what our kids don’t, yet, that organization impacts every aspect of life: school (or work), home, and […]

“My brain is an overstuffed garbage can,” my son once told me. “And the lid won’t stay on, so stuff is falling out all over the floor.” That’s how he describes what it is like to have ADHD. I thought I understood ADHD when he was diagnosed. By that point, I was a published academic […]
