ADHD often experience from family and friends. It can lead to depression or plain old loneliness and sadness. One of the most poignant phrases I’ve heard was from a client who described the difficulty of not being able to relate in ways that reflect who you are and that you care.

She said, “people don’t know your heart.” This holiday season, let people “know your heart” with the gift of one small gesture: Reach out to them, and reconnect.Reduce “all or nothing” thinking and be realistic.

Don’t obsess over sending out Christmas cards to every friend and relative if the process of finding addresses, writing, buying stamps and remembering to mail them puts you into a tailspin.

Women Aren’t Asking to Be Invincible
Spoilers ahead if you haven’t seen Captain Marvel/The Avengers.A few nights ago, I was sitting around a bonfire with a small group of friends.For some reason, The Marvel Universe got brought up and my boyfriend’s best friend went on a very long-winded rant about the Captain Marvel film that came out last year and how much he disliked the movie.By the time he finished the rant I was a glass of wine in and felt the need to ask him, “Do you think that part of the reason you disliked it was because it was about a woman?”Please keep in mind I have seen the movie and wasn’t impressed by it in general, but I wanted to hear his thoughts.“I don’t care about the fact that she’s a woman. I would have the same exact gripes if she was a man.

How to Keep From Getting Emotionally Drained During the Holidays

I am, however, obsessed with all things Christmas, so I simply had to watch her special on Amazon Prime. Always a fan of new versions of my favorite holiday classics, I listened intently to the songs she selected, but one specific song struck a chord (pun intended). Amidst Let it Snow and Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree, Kacey sang Christmas Makes Me Cry.

What is a “Catastrophic” Personal Injury & What Does It Mean?
A personal injury is always an unfortunate event in a person’s life because it could end up creating both a physical and financial burden for them. The physical burden is, of course, caused by the injury itself since it could end up causing an impairment that makes it difficult for the injured person to perform certain tasks. The financial burden is caused by the expenses needed to take care of the injury as well as the fact that the injured person may not be able to work for a while, so they may not have a steady income while they recover from the injury.

Making This Quiet Holiday Season a Blessing for Neurodiverse Families
Parties can be a challenge for some people. I include myself in this group. Parties are noisy, awkward, sometimes pressure-filled (drinking) and sometimes stuffy. It is my least favorite way to communicate and gather with people. Meeting each person for a nanosecond to learn a little bit of fluff and having no time to really connect leaves me feeling cheated. I find it exhausting. I also feel like I have to keep my game face on as I am drained of energy and enthusiasm for the occasion. Can you relate?

5 Tips for Handling Food Allergies Around the Holidays
The holidays, a time for family, food and happiness — or at least it is supposed to be. To be honest, when you have food allergies, the holidays can be a huge reminder of your “otherness” because suddenly there are parties, sweet treats, and merriment all around that you can’t participate in. Sometimes the people around you aren’t as supportive as you would hope, which doesn’t help. Hopefully some of these tips can help you get through this time of year with a little bit less stress.

Why I'm Sad (but Also Relieved) That COVID Canceled Christmas Dinner This Year
Christmas is always a troubling time of year for me. In 2009, a few days before Christmas, I was hospitalized with Bickerstaff brainstem encephalitis (a variant of GBS). My parents had to pack up all the gifts and food (we were all going to their house in Victoria, BC for the holidays that year) and come to the mainland, so everyone could be near me. Christmas day was a bit somber as my family gathered around my hospital bed and tried to muster up some cheer. They returned to my sister’s house to have dinner, while I lay holding my husband’s hand, feeling guilty, frightened and worried. A few days after that, I was in a coma.

What It's Like Planning a (Virtual) Pandemic Wedding
Like many young girls, I grew up having pretend weddings with my friends, where we took turns playing the bride, walking down an imaginary aisle carrying a fistful of dandelions. And like many girls, dating in my teens ushered in a wave of fantasy-inspired whimsy where I would practice writing my name as if I was married to my current beau or daydream about what our imaginary children might one day look like. Plenty of children grow up fantasizing about when they one day get to marry the person of their dreams. Nobody imagines they’re going to get married in the middle of a pandemic.
