You Mean I’m Not Lazy, Stupid Or Crazy?!: The Classic Self-Help Book for Adults with Attention Deficit Disorder – this is a really great book, though it’s geared towards adults.

There’s also ADDitude Mag, which has plenty of content available online.

I hope the other mods can add more to this post since I only have two that come to mind immediately… Feel free to reblog with other recs, too!

Eni Puzzle Keychain Charm Stimtastic $9.70

The Eni Puzzle Keychain Charm is small, lightweight, and fits in most pockets. It can also clasp onto your bag or belt loop. It has eight columns of eight colors arranged in rainbow order, counter-clockwise. There is only one model.

It has three main ways to play or stim with it: rearranging the colors by moving a single row or column of colors towards the spot without a color, like a sliding puzzle; twisting the parts around, like a Rubik’s cube; and running your fingers over the bumps for the texture.

Pros: Colorful, textured, multiple ways to play, lightweight, very portable, lots of moving parts

Cons: Kinda hard to move individual color pieces around sometimes, potentially noisy, not very weighted

Twiddle

bought from stimtastic ($9.50 +shipping)

I really like the twiddle! It’s a 2 foot long chain that is looped. It works similarly to the tangle but the risk of it breaking is way lower. It also makes a satisfying click if you take apart the links and click them back together.

However, it does rub kinda loudly if you aren’t careful. I don’t think anyone else has noticed, but I have.

Overall rating: 9/10

some of these i’ve learned on my own, or from family/friends, or reddit/tumblr/pintrest/facebook. but i’ve compiled a list that has helped me remain focused, organized, and not having my mind go all over the place. some of them are just good to know.

1. don’t put it down, put it away (helps immensely with clutter)

2. use a planner for everything, not just school (i use an actual planner because writing it down actually helps me remember it better, but an app can work too)

3. color code class materials, use a different color for each subject (i’m a nursing student and i’m always running around like crazy, my binders, folders, and notebooks for each class each have their own color. ex: bio=green, chem=blue, psych=pink. that way if i’m in a rush, i never grab the wrong stuff.)

4. rewriting class notes, memos, important dates, & anything else worth remembering helps to engrain it in your mind 

5. meal prepping twice every week helps to save time & money & also helps to keep your meals nice and healthy (it also helps me remember to eat because sometimes i have a hard time doing so since my vyvanse suppresses my appetite. it also helps to eat before i take my meds because then i have a more normal appetite and i’m not cranky. i’m also someone who would rather just not eat because i get stressed if i have to cook something, so having something all set and ready to go for each meal is such a huge stress relief)

6. do some sort of exercise for 30 minutes at least 4 times a week because it gets rid of excess energy, helps you to focus, & look & feel great (i do 45 minutes of cardio every other day on the stair-stepper & i’ve just gotten really into weight lifting. cardio definitely helps me A LOT to not be so cranky or all over the place)

7. pick out and get your outfit for the next day, every single night (i pick out EVERYTHING from the actual clothes, to the underwear, socks, bra, shoes, & accessories. this helps because i also have a weird thing about how clothes fit over undergarments & i also have a weird thing about matching clothes with undergarments, socks, & shoes)

8. pack your backpack and whatever else you need the night before (i put all my class materials, snacks & drinks, chargers, gym clothes, etc in my bag every night before i go to bed so i don’t rush or forget anything in the morning)

9. have a bag full of essentials that you take everywhere (i have a purse that i keep my wallet, keys, a protein bar, a water, my iPad, a back up charger, pen, small notebook, planner, gum, & hand sanitizer that i take with me everywhere. everything has it’s own special pocket & i never lose track of the things i need)

10. make lists of “to’s” (to do, to remember, to buy)

11. go from room to room whenever you leave someplace to make sure you haven’t left anything behind 

12. use post-it notes in visible places as reminders

13. set aside one day per week to do stuff you need to get done (cleaning, schoolwork, chores, grocery shopping, etc)

14. have a “time out” for yourself every other day to relax and recharge (i set aside an hour or two every single day to read or watch a tv show or do something that doesn’t require too much thought or energy. i don’t answer calls or texts, and i try not to browse social media. this helps me relax and not feel overwhelmed throughout the day or the week)
