En gros, la question écrite (2009) c'était "OK, on interdit les stups au volant, mais les TDAH traités par Ritaline font comment ?" et la réponse c'est "le proc voit le dossier au cas par cas, une attestation antérieure d'aptitude peut aider à juger".

"Why is our health secretary picking over the number of diagnoses, when he could be focusing on why our systems of work, education and care are still so closed off to the people who get them?"

The ever-excellent John Harris dissects the nasty "overdiagnosis" trope, currently promoted by Wes Streeting and our nightmare Labour government. His style is calm and balanced, but I can feel the underlying rage.

John Harris is a good man.

"Reading your research suggested to me that ADHD traits - although I'm not minimizing the problems, and the anguish that ADHD people can feel - ADHD traits constitute a special skill set, not an impairment, often, and the impairment comes from not being able to express the skills."

AuDHD and dyscalculia are a difficult mix when knitting. Following a regular pattern can be stressful, I tend to lose my place easily.

So I used @OmniGraffle to fix it! I put my favorite sock pattern into a template that, when printed, fits perfectly into my Traveler's Notebook that's always with me. Only the numbers for my size (so I don't mistake other sizes for mine). Checkboxes so I always know exactly where I'm at.

If you're a woman in your 40s or 50s who suddenly feels like everything got harder, you're not imagining it. I wrote about the intersection of ADHD and perimenopause—why this transition can feel so overwhelming, and what actually helps.

I chose this as my first blog post ever because this topic deserves more attention. Women navigating this deserve validation and informed care, not dismissal.

ADHD diagnoses are rising worldwide — but that doesn’t automatically mean “overdiagnosis.” A new Nature piece explores what’s really driving the increase: broader awareness, changing diagnostic criteria, better recognition in women/girls and adults, plus ongoing concerns about access, misdiagnosis, and how we frame #ADHD (disorder vs. neurodiversity). It’s a nuanced look at a complex story. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-03855-2

Again, I finished "Drystone: A Life Rebuilt" by Kristie De Garis @kristiedegaris. In this inspiring memoir, she rebuilds her life like she rebuilds a wall as a dry-stone waller: each stone carefully placed. Heartbreaking yet courageous, her sincerity makes the book both painful and hopeful.

None of us are too broken to begin again. Rebuilding is possible, even late in life. Sometimes the most radical act is simply telling the truth about who we are.

I built a tiny little tool that generates pink noise and lets you blend it with isochronic or binaural beats.

For some people like those with ADHD, sensory overload, or trouble winding down this kind of steady sound can be really calming 💖🌸

Maybe it's useful for you too:
