This week in clinic I’ve seen so many overwhelmed ADHD mums.
And I just want you to hear this: you are doing an amazing job.

It’s hard stopping work to do school pick-up.
It’s hard being in the monotony stage.
It’s hard caring for everyone else while you’re running on empty.

The laundry piles up.
The dishes wait.
Your brain freezes because there are too many things to do.
So you put Netflix on. And that’s okay.

Ignore the Facebook mum groups preaching routines and perfection.
Ignore the commentary about organic purées and “doing more”.
Ignore the side-eye at the takeaway shop when they know your order.

This stage is heavy — especially with an ADHD brain.

Reach out to your people.
The ADHD mums.
The probably-ADHD mums.
The mums with older kids who get it.

You are not failing.
You are surviving a demanding season.
And you are doing better than you think 🤍

If you have ADHD, this one vitamin might be making your anxiety worse

Vitamin D is one of the most commonly missed nutrients I see in ADHDers — and it’s not always included in standard blood tests.

Most people associate vitamin D with immunity, bone health, or hormones…
but it also plays a key role in dopamine production.

And dopamine matters for:
• Focus and motivation
• Stress tolerance
• Nervous system regulation
• Anxiety and low mood

Another important point:
📊 “Normal” on your pathology report isn’t always optimal for brain health.

For ADHD support, we often aim for vitamin D levels above 100 nmol/L.

Do you always need a daily supplement?
Not necessarily.

For some people, regular morning or afternoon sunlight can make a meaningful difference.

If you want to know what blood tests I commonly run for ADHD (beyond the basics),
👉 Comment “BLOOD TESTS” and I’ll send you my list.

Do you have to keep taking supplements if you have ADHD? 🧠💊

This is one of the most common questions I get — especially once people start feeling better.

Diet and exercise absolutely matter… but ADHD is a neurotype, not a short-term deficiency you “fix” and move on from.
Just like you don’t fuel your car once and expect it to keep running, some nutrients may need ongoing support — especially through stress, hormone shifts, and busy seasons of life.

This isn’t about being dependent.
It’s about maintenance, understanding your body, and supporting your brain long-term ✨

These are the things I stopped doing once I understood my ADHD 🧠✨

I stopped telling myself to try harder.
I stopped believing my house had to be perfect to feel okay.
I stopped forcing myself into events that left me exhausted.
I stopped shaming myself for food, overwhelm, or falling behind.
I stopped ignoring how hard life can feel with kids, work, grief, and everything else.

What I did start doing was slowing down, regulating my nervous system, and getting support — even though I “knew all the things”.

It’s not about pushing harder.
It’s about understanding me — and supporting my beautiful neurodivergent family in the ways we actually need 💛

If this resonates, you’re not failing — you’re learning.

Creatine is just for gym bros… right? 💪😅
Actually — it’s one of the most underrated supplements I use in clinic for ADHD 🧠✨

Your brain is energy hungry.
Creatine helps support ATP (your brain’s main fuel), neurotransmitter pathways, and even muscle recovery — which matters when your nervous system is already working overtime.

It’s also relevant for women across different hormone phases, because our creatine needs can change with hormonal shifts 🌙

No, it won’t suddenly turn you into a bodybuilder.
Yes, it can be a really useful support when used appropriately.

If you have ADHD, you’re more likely to experience more than just ADHD 🧠✨

Anxiety. Migraines. PMDD. Postnatal anxiety or depression. Gut issues. Hypermobility. Autism.
These overlaps aren’t random — and the numbers are real.

This isn’t about labels or fear.
It’s about understanding patterns in the nervous system, hormones, gut, and brain — so you can stop blaming yourself and start making sense of your symptoms.

ADHD is rarely a solo act, especially for women 🤍

These are my top 5 supplements I commonly use in clinic to support ADHDers 🧠✨

ADHD isn’t just about focus — it’s nervous system regulation, neurotransmitters, stress resilience, sleep, hormones, and gut health.

From calming the nervous system 💆‍♀️
To supporting dopamine pathways ⚡
To helping with overwhelm, sleep, and PMDD 💛

These are staples I come back to again and again — always personalised, never one-size-fits-all.

Do you ever look back and think… how did no one see this sooner? 😅🧠

The signs were always there — they just didn’t look like the stereotypes we were taught.
Especially for girls. Especially for high achievers. Especially if you masked, coped, or were “good at school”.

Messy rooms, hyperfocus, last-minute panic, loving structure but struggling with chaos, needing a right answer, avoiding group work, burning out quietly… it all makes sense in hindsight.

This isn’t about blame — for yourself or your parents.
It’s about understanding, compassion, and finally having language for your experience.

If this resonates, you’re not alone 💛

Does your ADHD feel harder since perimenopause started? You’re not imagining it 🧠✨

As progesterone declines, so does allopregnenolone — a key hormone involved in calming the nervous system via GABA. When that support drops, it can show up as more anxiety, feeling on edge, overstimulation, and poorer stress tolerance.

This isn’t a personal failing. It’s biology + hormones + an already sensitive ADHD nervous system.

The good news? There are ways to support this transition — gently and holistically.

Here is my official application on behalf of Perimenopausal ADHD Women to join the We Do Not Care Club.

We do not care if you think ADHD doesn’t exist — it does.

We do not care if you think we just need a parasite cleanse, a heavy metal detox, a past-life healing, or to go for a run every morning.
We will still have ADHD. It’s genetic.

We do not care if you have an opinion about whether we take stimulant meds or HRT.
Our body, our choice.

We do not care if we forget what we were saying mid-sentence.
And if we suddenly remember? Yes, we will interrupt you to tell you.

We do not care if the meals are organic, free-range, or a microwaved frozen dinner.
We ate today — gold star.

We do not care if the house looks like a tornado rolled through.
There are clean forks. That’s enough.

We do not care if the laundry is in a pile on the floor — it’s clean.
That’s what matters.

We do not care if we don’t remember why we walked into the room.
It’ll come back to us… eventually.

📝 Drop your own “we do not care” in the comments and we’ll add it to the official list (if we remember)

Thanks for accepting our application

This is Part 5 of our Genetic Mini-Series, and today we’re talking about something most people have no idea is linked to ADHD, anxiety, low moods and hormone symptoms: histamine.

Most people think histamine is just about allergies — but it’s also a brain chemical that can influence mood, focus, sleep, energy, irritability and even headaches.

In clinic, we see this all the time.
It’s not only food or the environment… your genetics, gut health, hormones and stress levels all affect how well you clear histamine.

And when histamine becomes imbalanced, it can feel like you’re “allergic to life” — overwhelmed, wired, tired, reactive, bloated, or stuck in chronic headaches.

If you’re wondering whether histamine could be contributing to your symptoms, I’ve created a free Histamine Checklist you can download.
Comment CHECKLIST and we’ll send it straight to you.

Let us know what you want us to cover in the next part of the mini-series!
