It's not only control over the eating of snacks that becomes more difficult with the variable attention inherent in ADHD. Creating and maintaining any habit and structure can be full of challenges.
Absolutely love this article. I'll have to reread it and see how I can use it to help change the way I think about things. I can't have crisps, chocolate or alcohol in the house or I just binge out. But I live with a crisp lover who keeps buying them!
Also want to mention that I misread the word salvation for salivation! Clearly all the crisps chat!! 😂😂
With you here Graham, and grateful for you sharing more around the ‘why’ I find it so difficult that I’m still figuring out. This all makes much sense. I also have found that denial switch for me only ever lasts a short while too… especially in the crisp department 😉

I don't think denial works very well in any department, Betsy. Thanks for reading. I'm glad you found it useful.
