Jannine ADHD Wise UKI recently posted about being approached by Jannine from ADHD wise UK to create some designs for her online book club. I recently joined onto one of her online Adult ADHD courses as unfortunately there is no support of its kind provided by the NHS for adults with ADHD. Little did I know, that this woman was going to play a huge part in my life and become a crucial asset to my support network. I don't have a large support network outside of university which is beginning to worry me as I will hopefully be graduating this year and I'm not sure how I will cope without the support of my tutors and university staff. I began Jannine's course with the hope of learning and implementing strategies to help me better manage my ADHD and I got so much more than that...Despite 1-1 contact time not being part of the course, Jannine always goes above and beyond for me and I can always rely on her when I'm struggling and she will be at the other end of the phone even though she is always ridiculously bus and does in fact HAVE A LIFE. I know she will always find time for me wether it be 10 minutes or 2 hours and for someone with ADHD who needs someone there and then, not the next day when its passed, this is what I need. As Jannine has ADHD herself she understands me and helps me to understand myself better and she is always reminding me of little things that I need to hear constantly like: "Kristen you can't do everything" or "kristen you're just doing that one thing right now" She helps me to recognise my strengths and build on my weaknesses and tells me how proud she is of me which means a lot. I feel very lucky to have Jannine in my life and I am eternally grateful for everything she does for me. She is one of the strongest, craziest, funniest, kindest and most amazing people I have in my life and she inspires me daily. Thank you for being you. Thank you for listening to me moan, cry, laugh, rant, insult you and sulk. Thank you for taking me under your wing. Thank you for giving me amazing opportunities. Thank you for being proud of me. Thank you for your time. Thank you for your knowledge. Thank you for having my best interests at heart when you make me do things I don't want to. and lastly thank you for your patience, understanding and kindness. Oh and not murdering me yet... "The greatest gift you can give someone is your time, because when you give your time you are giving a portion of your life that you will never get back."
