Every single weekday since Jan 8th 2023 a group of LEGENDS have supported each other into the day on Zoom. Fast forward three years and I decided to boycott the standard session and hit record! I hope you enjoy the extra special emotional rollercoaster to celebrate over 1000 days of 7am 'body doubling' with a very special squadron of The Leopard Print Army!

ENORMOUS THANKS to these legends and to all who have got us here(!) because you have helped to - not only create magic (beyond brain magic) but this Podcast's Patreon Community have turned tragedy into triumph; inspiring the creation of ADHDAF+ Charity which has Peer Support Groups in Scotland, England and (soon) Wales, to connect and empower ADHD adults of marginalised genders. A Charity by us for us!

Did you turn into a brand new person on the stroke of midnight NYE? US NEITHER! In fact, we're not subscribing to any of that ‘new year, new me’ BS! We can't wish our ADHD away, plus we’re not broken versions of ourselves needing to be fixed! We’re the same people, and we’re facing the coldest and darkest months of year! We meed compassion, not pressure and we need each other!

ADHDAF+ Charity ⁠ Oxford ADHD Peer Support Group Facilitators Kirsty and Claire, and myself about Seasonal Affective Disorder and navigating the start of 2026; whilst the post Christmas comedown and our Instagram algorithm's are serving shame in heavy doses.

The title is the topic of Jamuary's eight f⁠ree ADHD Peer Support Groups⁠ in Scotland and England; shared in a similar format of the groups to give a feel of what sessions are like and to help educate, validate and shame eradicate.

ADHDAF+ Charity was inspired by and is informed by the work of ADHDAF Podcast. We hope you can make your local group, and if there isn't one near you yet; that this episode helps you best support yourself at this challenging time of year. Please be kind to yourself.
