Hi I'm Donna! and I'm one half of ADH Tea Podcast and all the things at Unravel Tea
I ended up on ADHD insta, and had a niggling suspicion that I had found home in 2019. Cue months of arguments in my brain, thinking I was making all the stuff up.
In February 2023 I was diagnosed with combined type ADHD, and (despite my initial resistance) started meds in April '23. I’m aware that not everyone wants to or CAN take meds, and they also don't work for everyone. But for me it feels like brain glasses.
You know when you put on glasses for the first time and that tree suddenly has detailed leaves and not just a big green blob? Yup, that.
Why didn't anyone tell me they can see the leaves from a distance?
Why tea? I have a sneaking suspicion that taking time to calm my brain with tea has been my body and mind's way of trying to slow my brain down and ground. Taking time for tea helps to connect with my thoughts and also with other people.
