Thanks Glisten for asking. I came up with the site http://www.yournewstory.org while I was an inpatient at the Ramsay psych Clinic here in Cairns. I did so because I met so many other ADHD diagnosed adults in there, and got so much out of comparing notes with them, giving and receiving support - it was lovely.
I was particularly struck by some pearls of wisdom, and started writing them down. Just little things like that tip about taking your Dexamphetamine meds as soon as you wake up, so that the meds kick in by the time you're ready to get up - I found that to make such a positive difference. I was just about springing out of bed instead of getting up with a haunted doomed sort of feeling. So I resolved to put together some notes and upload them to a website, and invite others to contribute their tips, ideas, feelings, descriptions. The site is a bit skeletal at present but I hope other people will contribute or comment so we end up with a useful storehouse of information and perspectives that will be useful for adults with ADHD - whether diagnosed or not.
