💊UNDERSTANDING SHARED CARE AGREEMENTS💊

Shared care is a partnership between your specialist team and your GP to ensure you receive safe and effective treatment. Under this agreement, your GP prescribes your medication, but your specialist team remains responsible for monitoring your progress and wellbeing.

✅ Why do I still need review appointments?

Even though your GP issues the prescription, regular reviews with us are a vital part of the shared care agreement. These appointments allow us to:

-Check that the medication is working as intended
-Monitor for any side effects or changes in your health
-Adjust treatment if needed to keep you safe

📅 What happens if reviews are missed?
If monitoring isn’t maintained, the shared care agreement cannot continue. This means your GP may not be able to prescribe your medication until reviews are up to date.

Your health and safety are our priority, and these checks are in place to give you the best possible care. If you have any questions or need to book your review, please contact us—we’re here to help!

💫 ADHD and Hormones 💫

🎥This reel by Alex Partridge is a really helpful and accessible insight into the powerful effect of hormones on ADHD symptomology.

This is why we see so many people where their symptoms fluctuate with menstrual cycles and they find their ADHD symptoms worsened after life stages such as puberty, having children, perimenopause and menopause and they reach a crisis point or a worsening of their mental health.

Its not just increased mental load through parenting or because you're more stressed, you are biologically negatively impacted at different life stages which leads to your masking strategies struggling to keep up.

Its not because you are doing badly or failing at anything, you are biologically led to the place you're at.

This may be your time to book that assessment, find out your neurotype, and engage in different strategies such as medication to support your symptoms.

You are important and it shouldn't have to feel this hard. We've got you.

🎄 Supporting Neurodivergent Young People During the Christmas Period 🎄

The festive season can be exciting—but for many neurodivergent young people, it can also feel overwhelming. Changes in routine, sensory overload, and social expectations can make this time challenging.

Here are a few ways to help:
✅ Keep routines where possible – predictability reduces anxiety.
✅ Offer quiet spaces – a calm retreat can help with sensory overload.
✅ Give choices – let them decide how much to join in with activities.
✅ Prepare for changes – talk through plans in advance to ease uncertainty.
✅ Respect masking – if they need downtime after social events, that’s okay.

✨Christmas should feel safe and enjoyable for everyone. Small adjustments can make a big difference ✨

Do you have any tips that work for your family? Share them below—we’d love to hear! 👇

🫥MASKING AT SCHOOL 🫥

We know school days can be tough, and holding it together all day can be exhausting. Around Christmas, the expectation to join in the festivities can feel overwhelming—and for many young people, masking becomes a way to cope.

That’s why we love this Masking Toolkit for Parents from The Contented Child, Child Wellbeing Consultancy. It’s a fantastic resource to help explain what masking is, how to spot it, and practical ways to support your child..

They hold it together all day at school — smiling, following the rules, blending in. But the moment they get home, the mask slips. Tears, anger, exhaustion, silence.

This is masking — when a child hides their true feelings or struggles to fit in, often at great emotional cost. What looks like 'coping' at school can lead to collapse once they feel safe again.

Understanding masking helps parents respond with compassion instead of confusion — and helps schools create spaces where children don’t need to hide who they are.

FOLLOW for the Educator Edition later today.

Our Masking Toolkit for Parents & Educators explores why masking happens, how to spot it, and what really helps.
It’s filled with practical strategies to support emotional safety at home and in the classroom.

Download it from The Contented Child at link in comments or via our Linktree Shop in our Bio.
