Big thanks to author Nina Lichtenstein for adding her voice to the conversation about ADHD and the creative process in Creatively ADHD's first Q & A. creativelyadhd.substack.com/p/her-body-a...

I had to blow off some steam about RFK Jr on autism and The New York Times on ADHD. What’s your take? creativelyadhd.substack.com/p/a-hot-take...

Hyperactivity doesn’t always involve a body in motion. It can be internal, invisible, quiet. It can manifest as mental fatigue or a buzzing sensation in your chest. It’s restlessness and rumination. It’s that feeling at night when you close your eyes but your mind won’t settle.

“But you don’t look like you have ADHD.” ADHD can be invisible. Masking is a well-developed skill.

I hope you’ll join the conversation! 👇

“The flip side of impulsivity is creativity. What is creativity but impulsivity gone right? You don’t plan to have a creative thought..... No, new ideas, brilliant new insights, come unbidden, spontaneously, impulsively.” Dr. Ned Halloway, in the film The Disruptors.

Excited to be a researcher on this passion project as a late diagnosed neurodivergent woman with ADHD. It's been a privilege to interview women who shared their experiences and work with a team of neurodivergent researchers. This is a glimpse of our findings so far. news.csu.edu.au/latest-news/...

Doris Lessing's message seems especially pertinent to writers and artists with ADHD. "Whatever you're meant to do, do it now. The conditions are always impossible."
