#updatecast – Meds, Nlp And A 5 Part Series

Ever felt you’re juggling one hundred things, but your mind wanders to all corners of the universe? Welcome to the ADHD experience. In today’s episode of The Truth About Dyslexia, I’m chatting about my personal goals, exploring ADHD meds, and dipping my toe into the world of NLP. If you’re new here, the player is at the top of the page so you can listen while you read.

Sometimes we need that nudge to stay on track and find new tricks to manage our learning differences. That’s exactly what I’ll share in this post, so let’s jump right in.

Catching Up on My Goals

I love setting goals, but I’ve learned they can shift unpredictably if you’re neurodiverse. This episode highlights how I’m refining what I want to achieve and staying realistic along the way.

It’s not about massive ambition all the time. I’m realising that small, consistent steps can spark bigger results. When I look at my progress, clearer intentions and slight adjustments often outshine grand, unrealistic targets.

Retracing My ADHD Meds Journey

Adjusting ADHD meds can feel like fine-tuning a very complicated radio. Is the dosage right? Should I try something new? You might feel like you’re clumsily searching for the right station.

In this episode, I talk about what’s working for me right now and how I decided to make changes. If you’re on a similar path, consider:

• Regular check-ins with a trusted professional
• Tuning in to side effects and shifts in mood
• Asking questions until it feels right

Sometimes it’s trial and error. That can be frustrating, but hang in there because clarity often follows persistence.

A Quick Dive into NLP

NLP, or Neuro-Linguistic Programming, can sound mysterious, but I’m keeping it simple. We discuss practical ways to use words and mental imagery to strengthen focus and self-belief. One small technique is visualising success in vivid detail before diving into a task. I’ve noticed it’s helped me stay on track, especially when ADHD tries to lure me elsewhere.

“In today’s episode I’m going to update you on my goals, ADHD meds, we talk some NLP, and more.”

Whether you’re new to NLP or just want a few neat tricks, this part of the conversation adds insights you can try straight away.

Where to From Here?

We all have miles to go in our personal journeys. I’ve discovered that combining small goal shifts, mindful medication management, and fresh perspectives like NLP can move us forward in subtle but powerful ways. Here are a few highlights to consider:

• Check your goals regularly and allow them to evolve
• Don’t be shy about adjusting meds if needed
• Experiment with new mental tools, like NLP, to boost focus
• Celebrate little breakthroughs
