July 25, 2025Adults with Type 1 diabetes (T1D) are significantly more likely than their non-diabetic peers to have ADHD, according to new research published in the Journal of Clinical Medicine.1For the study, 273 participants with TID completed questionnaires using the Adult Self-Report Scale V1.1 (ASRS) for ADHD symptoms. Information about the patients’ cardiometabolic conditions, lab tests, and scores on a questionnaire assessing depression was obtained from medical records.Of the participants:ADHD symptom prevalence decreased as age increased, but ADHD symptoms among TID patients remained appreciably higher than average across the lifespan.

“Happiness turned to me and said, ‘It is time. It is time to forgive yourself for all of the things you did not become… Above all else, it is time to believe, with reckless abandon, that you are worthy of me, for I have been waiting for years.” ~Bianca Sparacino

We don’t realize how often we hold ourselves back by holding on to everything.Letting go is not giving up. Letting go is surrendering any needless attachments to particular outcomes and situations. Surrender means showing up in your life with the intention to be your best, and to do the best you know how, without expecting life to be ideal.

Sometimes the hardest part of the journey is simply believing you’re worthy of the trip.“Life hasn’t been the easiest on me lately. I won’t get into all the details now, but the tough times I’ve been living through have left me with many cracks. And although I’ve still managed to be a reasonably successful person, on most days I struggle desperately with my self-confidence. I just don’t feel good enough. I feel flawed. I feel like my cracks make me undesirable…”Those are the opening lines of an email I received recently from a new reader of our blog.

Patience is not about waiting, it’s the ability to maintain a positive outlook while working hard for what you believe in.Have you ever told yourself that you’re going to make something happen and then nothing happened? All details aside, it’s because you didn’t have the right habits in place — the little things you do every day that build up to something bigger. Your habits truly make or break you.

When you try to control too much, you enjoy too little.This morning I met up with an old friend, someone whom I care about deeply but have internally struggled with for years because I’ve always been worried about her health.I want to help her heal, because I feel I’m losing her.I want to teach her the time-tested tools for living a happier, simpler, healthier life that I’ve helped so many other people with — so she can give up her addictions, take up exercise and mindfulness, nurture her needs, and suddenly be transformed into a healthy person again.But that’s not reality. I want to control something that frightens me, but I can’t do anything about it.

IEPs are protected by law, as spelled out in IDEA. So long as IDEA law remains intact, the rights of students with disabilities to IEPs will remain protected. However, the Department of Education is the primary watchdog for both IDEA and Section 504, so enforcement of IEP and 504 Plan violations could be impacted by recent cuts.

July 22, 2025ADHD and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) may cause several common gastrointestinal diseases, and individuals with ADHD are 63% more likely to develop irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) than their neurotypical peers, according to new genetic research1 and a meta-analysis.2 Together, these two studies shed light on the multi-layered relationship between ADHD and common gastrointestinal disorders such as reflux, gastritis, and IBS, offering support for the growing awareness of gut health’s influence on ADHD symptoms.The first study, published in Medicine, sought to determine whether a causal relationship exists between gastrointestinal diseases and ADHD as well as PTSD. Researchers performed a Mendelian randomization analysis using data from the FinnGen study related to 24 gastrointestinal diseases, and data from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium related to ADHD and PTSD.Researchers found that genetic susceptibility to ADHD was linked to:Genetic susceptibility to PTSD was linked to:This data, concluded the study authors, “provides evidence supporting causal relationship between PTSD and ADHD with specific gastrointestinal diseases.”A second study, published in Scientific Reports, investigated the association between ADHD and intestinal disorders.

During your childhood, did your parents lack empathy or accountability, ignore boundaries, engage in emotional outbursts, have huge egos, or specialize in guilt tripping?Parental emotional immaturity manifests in many ways that can significantly influence a child’s well-being.

For each question, select the response that best matches your experience growing up.

July 22, 2025Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) comprises four distinct subtypes, each with unique genetic patterns and traits that influence brain development, according to a new study published in Nature Genetics that also suggests that certain underlying genetic variations in individuals with ASD increase the likelihood of having ADHD. 1“Autism and ADHD are highly comorbid and share a staggering number of traits and symptoms, many of which are not reflected in diagnostic criteria for either condition,” said Karen Saporito, Ph.D., a licensed clinical psychologist, during the ADDitude webinar “AuDHD Guidance: Why Autism is So Difficult to Diagnose in Women and Girls with ADHD.” “We’ve barely begun to scratch the surface on ADHD and autism.”Though researchers have identified hundreds of ASD-associated genes and substantial evidence for a genetic basis of the condition, few studies have linked specific genes to autistic traits.2, 3, 4, 5The Nature Genetics study, led by a team of researchers from Princeton University, identified four distinct ASD subtypes using a generative mixture modeling framework and data from 5,392 autistic children aged 4 to 18 who participated in the SPARK cohort, a nationwide effort to collect and track the genetic and clinical presentations of autism.

There’s a quiet grief that has settled in my bones over the years — a subtle, enduring, invisible sadness I never expected when I first became a parent. It’s the grief of constantly co-regulating my child, who is autistic with ADHD, and whose big emotions are often beyond their control.Co-regulation means being present, constantly shifting my own emotional state, even when I’m not ready, to match the urgency of my child’s.

If somebody is working on themselves and changing for the better, it’s unnecessary to keep bringing up their past. People can change and grow. You know that’s true.

Asking the right questions is the answer.In a recent email newsletter I wrote, “Calm your mind today. Don’t just think outside the box; think like there is no box.”And to my surprise, 97 people quoted that line and responded with the same general question: “How?”I’ve spent the morning thinking about how to answer their collective question in the most universal way possible, and I’ve decided that the simplest explanation I can give is this: Ask yourself better questions — questions that focus your thoughts and filter out the excess noise that’s been cluttering your mind.The calming and healing power of a positive imagination is unleashed by constraining your focus.

Most people chase success because they want more money.And that’s okay, there’s nothing wrong with being ambitious. But if you want to get ahead in life, don’t cut corners or break the law. Your reputation is everything.

“One day you will look back and see that all along you were blooming.” — MHNTwenty-nine years ago, when I was a freshman in high school, my English teacher gave my class a homework assignment entitled, “Advice for a Younger Generation.” The concept of the assignment was simple: Each student had to interview a person who was over the age of 25, gather enough information to write a basic biography of their life, and find out what their top tips are for a younger generation. I chose to interview my dad.
