ALL DOGS HAVE ADHD
B08G2XT27M.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_SX500_.jpg

This wonderful children's book is a brief 5 minute read that can change someone's life. I use this book as an icebreaker to help people understand what ADHD can look and feel like. Great tool for people, teachers and grandparents who may not understand ADHD and its complexities. Be prepared to pull out the paper tissues; many people start crying when they read this book. I often hear "This is my child.", "This is my spouse.", "This is me.  I finally understand my brain and why I behave as I do."  I even had a woman declare after reading this book "I have been yelling at my husband for 20 years. I now understand what he has been dealing with all these years.  We have a new relationship."

ALL CATS ARE ON THE AUTISM SPECTRUM

This is the sister book to "All Dogs Have ADHD". Autism Spectrum Syndrome (now called High Functioning Autism) often goes hand in hand with ADHD and is even more misunderstood than ADHD. People who aren't aware of this condition often attribute it to poor parenting and manners. This book can help someone recognize potential signs that their loved one is on the Autism Spectrum. Great tool for building understanding about the behaviors and needs of someone who has High Functioning Autism.

ALL BIRDS HAVE ANXIETY

The latest book in this informative trilogy by Kathy Hoopmann introduces many thoughts about how anxiety can make someone feel.  One-third of people living with ADHD will deal with anxiety at some point in their life and may also suffer from depression. This book can be used as a tool to help someone start the conversation about anxiety and depression so they can get professional help for treatment for these often unnoticed conditions.

It puts the student in control: Writing down assignments requires students to keep track of assignments and deadlines themselves and reinforces what needs to be done. Ships to U.S. & Canada (in about 1 week).

TIME TIMER

Keep your kids, your spouse or yourself on task with these timers that are ADD/ADHD friendly.  You can see from the corner of your eye the  red "pie slice" indicating how much time you have left.  I use it when on client calls or when doing public speaking engagements. Also available in a watch format. Ships to your address in the United States. In Canada, only available at selected retail outlets (or through Amazon.ca).

FRIXION ERASABLE HIGHLIGHTERS & PENS

I love these products so much, I have declared myself Unofficial Brand Ambassador. I highly recommend using them for your planner/agenda.  No messy white-out tape to cover up changes in your appointments.  My favourite style pen is 0.7mm with clicker to open and close (instead of a cap that can get lost). You can use the highlighters to create a color code for your planner appointments (e.g. green = client time, pink = family time).

INCOME TAX EXEMPTION FORMS FOR
PEOPLE WITH ADHD

ADHD is notorious for encouraging procrastination, avoidance and general forgetfulness which may result in missing important deadlines, such as filling out your tax returns, for several years, even when you owe money. Rather than biting the bullet and paying the late fees, penalties and interests, in Canada, you can ask for a lightening of your tax load.  This means you could potentially avoid having to pay those extra fees when you submit your income taxes  (but you still need to pay your income taxes).  However, you must first divulge to the government that you have ADHD.  These tax exemption forms could potentially avoid being charged late fees.
