Recently I came across a wonderful and lively woman on YouTube who has posted some very practical strategies for dealing with ADHD and the behaviours that come with it. I particularly like the idea of the “glitter bottle” as a way to manage meltdowns.
Here are the links to some of the videos and her TED talk.
