A Soft Intro for Overwhelmed Brains

A Soft Intro for Overwhelmed Brains

If you’ve ever wondered whether you might have ADHD—or if you’ve already been diagnosed and are trying to make sense of it all—you’re in the right place.

The Focus Loop was created to help you understand how ADHD actually shows up in everyday life: the messy desks, the missed messages, the hyperfocus highs, and the brain fog lows. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or just ADHD-curious, this is a space to explore the reality behind the symptoms—and find tools that actually help.


Not sure if it’s ADHD?

Start with this post:

👉 Signs You Might Have Undiagnosed ADHD

It walks through real-life experiences (not just checklists) that often point to undiagnosed ADHD in adults.


Just diagnosed—or suspect you might be?

You’re not alone. This piece shares what it feels like to finally get clarity after years of confusion:

👉 Finding Myself Through a Late Diagnosis

It’s part reflection, part validation—and a reminder that it’s never “too late” to understand how your brain works.


Need something to ground you on foggy days?

Try building your own Focus Menu—a tool I use when my brain just won’t cooperate:

👉 My Focus Menu: A Lifeline for Foggy Brain Days

It’s simple, gentle, and made for ADHD brains that don’t do well with rigid to-do lists.


Worried that ADHD means you can’t be successful?

You might be surprised.

👉 Can ADHD Adults Be Successful? Here’s What I Learned After 25 Years in Design

This one’s personal and a good reminder that success doesn’t always look the way we were taught to expect it.
