Top 10 Tips for Organizing Your ADHD Household - Moms With ADD/ADHD
momswithadd.ning.com — “Contributed by: Terry Matlen, ACSW (Posted on 2007-10-02) When ADHD is in the marital mix, it can be a real challenge to get household chores done without one or the other feeling exasperated, angry or shamed. Often, the non-ADHD partner feels resentment over doing more than his/her share or having to constantly remind the other to do what needs to be done. The AD/HD partner might feel angry at always being told what to do and may feel unappreciated for the efforts being made, which sometimes fe” View full resource at momswithadd.ning.com

momswithadd.ning.com — “Contributed by: Terry Matlen, ACSW (Posted on 2000-11-21) When you wake up in the morning, what is the first thing that pops into your head? 1. Am I late for work ? 2. Are the kids going to make it to the bus on time ? 3. Where am I ? If you answered 1, 2 or 3, then you are not a kitchen phobic. I am one of many ADD women whose nightmares begin upon awakening, rather than during the wee hours of the night. For the first thought that comes into MY mind when my eyes open at 6:45 am is....

ADHD: Not Just For Kids Anymore - Moms With ADD/ADHD
momswithadd.ning.com — “Contributed by: Terry Matlen, ACSW Up until the mid 1980's, it was widely believed by physicians and psychologists that ADHD was outgrown by the time a child hit adolescence. Surprise! Though many clinicians still hold on to this belief, it is now accepted by many in the medical community that childhood ADHD does indeed continue into adulthood. As a matter of fact, the DSM-IV, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, describes just that. Hyper Henry Hawkins in 4th grade, wh” View full resource at momswithadd.ning.com

momswithadd.ning.com — “Contributed by: Terry Matlen, ACSW (Posted on 2005-01-16) Recently, a parent came to me, conflicted over whether to follow her pediatrician's recommendation of placing her young son on medication. His difficult behaviors had escalated in recent years and after trying behavioral strategies and food elimination diets, there simply hadn't been much progress in his maintaining himself.

Packing for Camp: A Mother's Nightmare - Moms With ADD/ADHD
momswithadd.ning.com — “My daughter, Mackenzie, leaves for overnight camp in exactly eight hours. You'd think packing her up for these three weeks would be a fairly easy task. After all, she's gone to the same camp for the last 5 years and I know the ropes. We're given a packing list each year. It never varies and I try to keep a drawer full of her camp clothes so that I don't have to make the same decisions every year on what she needs to pack. So, it's a no-brainer, right? Wrong. Packing her up for camp is beyond my ” View full resource at momswithadd.ning.com

Stop Obsessing! Taming the Worry Wart and Rumination - Moms With ADD/ADHD
momswithadd.ning.com — “Contributed by: Terry Matlen, ACSW It makes sense, doesn't it, that we often see obsessing and ruminating as part of living with ADHD? After all, most of us have hyperactive minds, if not bodies to match, and our brain needs to be in hyper mode much of the time. So if there's nothing particularly pressing to think about, then what's an ADHD brain to do? Obsess, of course! Having trouble making decisions is also a related ADHD brain torment, because once there's a choice to be made, we pull up ev” View full resource at momswithadd.ning.com

Happy Occasions Can Ruin Your Week - Moms With ADD/ADHD
momswithadd.ning.com — “I attended a wedding shower last weekend. It was a happy occasion, of course, and I enjoyed being with people I love and care about. But it also ruined my week. Or I should say, the last two weeks. Why? This is one of those ADHD issues that most people simply can't understand. Like many women with ADHD, I have a hard time making decisions. I procrastinate. AndI hate clothes shopping. That combination is a recipe for disaster when there's a special event coming up and there's nothing to wear- EVE” View full resource at momswithadd.ning.com
