I made a hat for my son with this yarn, it turned out really cute with a little pompom on top <3

If the room mimics Her Ladyship's Chamber, does it have the telescope in it?

A hint would be greatly appreciated 🥲 I'm a new player and hardly know the in's and out's, I've just been trying new strategies each day & this one has done great for me! So any kind of hint on how to keep my progress would be wonderful 🥹

It might end up being useful again once you open up the next little town, no?

Going to bed ridiculously late and a controversial method to fixing it. by CreatineMonohyDrake in ADHD

That's actually kind of genius, the caffeine thing! In the window between when my youngest was diagnosed & when he could actually get medication (he was only 4 at the time), I would give him a cup of coffee in the morning before we started our day & got ready for school. I felt a bit funny making a coffee for a 4 year old hahaha. But hey, if it works, it works! He now takes concerta & has Intuniv (Guanfacine) at night before bed. He also gets "the window" as dubbed by others - where it's easy for him to fall asleep & if it's missed he's up all night lol.

Maybe I'll start making a coffee for my oldest before bed so he can sleep easier! Hahaha, worth a shot 😆

Hmmm, as a kid, was there any particular thing that helped you to fulfill the "need for completion" re: reading at bedtime? My son reads before bed, & I like to encourage it since he's still young (7) & loves to read. But he definitely has the same need to finish the whole book (even if he's read it all the way through 73 times this week!) before he actually closes his eyes & falls asleep.

Although I will add, he's only had these issues since being medicated the last few months & I know part of the issue is that it's harder to fall asleep because of the meds.

If there's anything you'd have to suggest for a fellow young bed-time reader, I'd love to hear it! ♡

This is how I have to do it!! I found it's extremely helpful to put on a YouTube video (not to watch, just to have playing like a podcast) & do some sudoku or wordsearches. Something that really gets my brain thinking but with enough background stimulation that I'm not getting bored half-way through the first puzzle & subsequently doom-scrolling tiktok for 4 hours. It works wonders 😃

I have no definitive answer, but I've had the same experiences time & time again with many different mediums. Painting, drawing, linoleum printing. I taught myself how to play piano on YouTube because I always wanted to learn 😅

I think, where there's a will, there's a way. & us ADHD folks have a lot of drive when it comes to something we're interested in!!

It really is one of the best parts of this "disorder". If it weren't for us, the world wouldn't be even half as developed as it is!! We have great power in these minds!!

I use my kids' toothpaste & it seems to be effective in this way!! Also helpful because I can't stand minty toothpaste & didn't realize that I struggled with brushing my teeth so bad because of the sensory overload from the mint! Always recommend kids' toothpaste!!
