SECOND CHANCE SUNDAY

Some girls with ADHD don’t stand out.
They sit quietly, try hard, and do everything they can to keep up… while struggling underneath.

Because they’re not disruptive, they’re often missed.
Misunderstood as shy, sensitive, or perfectionist — rather than supported.

This series is here to change that.

Over the next posts, I’ll be breaking down what ADHD in girls really looks like, including the signs, the masking, and how to support them in a way that truly helps.

If you’ve ever thought, “something doesn’t quite fit, but I can’t explain it” — this is for you.

SECOND CHANCE SUNDAY - an opportunity to connect with the most popular posts of the past 7 days.

Most children who W sit aren’t doing anything “wrong”… they’re doing what feels easiest for their body.

W sitting can give a child extra stability when their core strength or balance is still developing. For some, it’s simply a comfortable habit. For others, it can be a small clue that their body might need a bit more support with strength, coordination, or posture.

The key isn’t constant correction or telling a child off. It’s noticing patterns, gently encouraging other positions, and understanding what their body might be communicating underneath the behaviour.

If you’ve ever been told to “stop” your child W sitting but weren’t sure why, this will help you see the bigger picture.

If your child finds it hard to switch off, keeps going back to their device, or seems calmer online than in everyday life, you’re not alone.

For many neurodivergent young people, this isn’t about defiance or “too much screen time”, it’s about how their brain responds to dopamine and quick rewards. Understanding this changes how we respond.

See the visual for details of how to download a free The Dopamine Cycle and start making sense of what’s really going on beneath the behaviour.

Fermanagh and Omagh has faced significant changes to local health services. Our access to care, especially in our rural communities, remains a real concern.

We would like to make our residents aware of the “This Is Our Health” public engagement programme led by the Department of Health.

Our voices and experiences of our district must be heard, particularly around access, distance to services, and the unique challenges of rural living.

We encourage residents to tell the Department of Health and health care partners of their experiences in this survey: https://bit.ly/4ubMbjw
