    The ADHD Diaries : Diagnosis

    The first of a many part series around neurodivergence - how I came to find out that I had ADHD at 30. The late diagnosis gave me answers to a lot of seemingly unanswerable questions but added a layer of frustration when thinking in hindsight how great it would have been to know this ten years ago.  Here's a quick rundown of my symptoms and the medical process that I have taken as well as the current medication I use.  The signs included an inability to focus for periods longer than a few minutes, problems with social cues, brain fog all the time, hectic overthinking, sleep dysfunction, lack of ability to regulate emotion, messy - ADHD piling, can't stay on track in a conversation....the list is long and I have covered only a few things in this. If you believe that you might be neurodivergent, I urge you to seek diagnosis from a medical professional. Also available as a YouTube video (Lexi Partell) and a blog on my website. lexipartell.com/blog Facebook groups for people with ADHD -  ADHD for Smart Ass Women - https://www.facebook.com/groups/1541724249266515 Australian ADHD+ Support Group -  https://www.facebook.com/groups/169321433117567 ADHD Coaches, Resources, and Research for ADHD Families - https://www.facebook.com/groups/184063643268186 Mental health resources - Global list of resources - https://www.wearespur.com/org/mentalh...

    Why didn't you just report it? Rape and Sexual Assault.

    Diving into two news stories that triggered me this week in Danny Masterson, Ashton Kutcher and Dillon Danis and then onto talking about the question 'Why didn't you just report it?' - rape and sexual assault. Please keep in mind that this is a broad issue and this just skims the surface of this particular conversation.

    Life Goals

    What are your goals? Are they scary enough to push you away from them or pull you towards them? It’s hard as a woman in my 30s to not compare myself to where other women my age are. But my goals are very different and they have been all of my life. So I shouldn’t be comparing and neither should you. It’s your life, in your time.

    Moving on from Cheating Part 2

    This is Part 2 of a 3 part series. In Part 1, we focused on the hours after finding out you were cheated on, in this part we focus on the days and weeks and talk about - 1. Acceptance 2. Getting checked for STIs 3. Don't take actions that do not align with your values 4. Build new meaning into your life (my fave) 5. Talking to the person that cheated on you NOTE : I have had the flu and a fever over the last week, so the first few minutes of this episode have some breathing feedback. If this isn't something you love (I don't), I will be releasing a blog alongside this episode soon and you can the information in that way. If you stick around, it is only for a few minutes - I do apologise.

    Moving on from Cheating Part 1

    Finding out that you have been cheated on is one of the most painful and emotionally draining things to happen inside a relationship. In this episode I talk about the times I have been cheated on inside relationships, and how to deal with the hours after you find out.  There will be a part 2 which will focus on longer term implications of making the decision to stay or go post being cheated on.  Mental Health resources Global list of resources - https://www.wearespur.com/org/mentalhealthhub Global - https://www.verywellmind.com/ AU - https://www.beyondblue.org.au/ If you are in a situation where you feel you might physically harm yourself, please understand that you are in a state of emergency and call emergency services.

    How to move from an external validation to an internal validation mindset

    External Validation - taking your value and self worth from others opinions of you and allowing external sources to define how you value yourself - something that is damaging long term. In this episode, we speak about the difference between external and internal validation and go through five steps on how to slowly move the needle for yourself. Become a more confident and secure version of yourself by staying consistent in these steps.
