2022.03.11 Women and ADHD Support Group with Katherine Mengardon
My website, pro facebook (with articles I have written about my personal ADHD experiences) and email
https://www.linkedin.com/in/kmengardon/
https://www.facebook.com/kmengardon
The following are personal recommendations:
Women with Attention Deficit Disorder by Sari Solden (worth looking for it on ebay for cheap copies, or get on audiobook!)
But she also has a podcast and more to check out.
Other great resources not mentioned on the call, but that I would like to recommend:
Jessica McBale’s How to ADHD YouTube channel – fun, well researched and bitesized – great to learn more but also share with those around us that might need ‘educating’
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-nPM1_kSZf91ZGkcgy_95Q
ADHD for Smart Ass Women podcast – for a boost in confidence!
https://toppodcast.com/podcast_feeds/adhd-for-smart-ass-women-with-tracy-otsuka/
Access To Work – government grant to support people with mental health conditions into or in work
https://www.gov.uk/access-to-work
Headstuff – coaching services, can help you with doing Access To Work forms too
https://www.headstuffadhdtherapy.co.uk/
Some useful resources on the ADHD UK website:
Diagnosis pathway – something you can send to your GP if they keep telling you that ADHD is only ‘for kids’ or such things
https://adhduk.co.uk/diagnosis-pathways/
Or send them to the NHS website that talks about adult ADHD!
