E-Book - The Missing Piece: Why ADHD Suddenly Feels Harder in Perimenopause
When ADHD suddenly feels harder, you’re not imagining it.
Perimenopause can bring changes in hormones, sleep, energy, mood, sensory processing and cognitive function, and for women with ADHD, these changes can make everyday life feel significantly more difficult.
The Missing Piece is a practical, neurodiversity-affirming e-book designed to help you understand why your ADHD may feel different during perimenopause and what you can actually do about it!
Written through an occupational therapy lens, this ebook connects the dots between ADHD, hormonal changes, the nervous system, executive functioning, sensory processing, sleep and the increasing demands of everyday life.
Inside, you'll find:
- A simple explanation of how perimenopause can interact with ADHD
- Insights into hormones and the nervous system
- Strategies for managing executive functioning and cognitive overload
- Support for sleep, sensory overwhelm and stress
- Practical tools and worksheets you can use in everyday life
- A greater understanding of your changing capacity, without the guilt!
This isn't about trying to become more productive. And this isn't like any other book.
It's about understanding what your brain and body need now, adapting your environment and routines, and finding practical ways to make everyday life feel more manageable.
You haven't suddenly become bad at life. Your brain and body are changing, and your strategies may need to change too.
Created by an Occupational Therapist and founder of FunctionalMe, this guide is your starting point for understanding what might be happening.
