Often misunderstood I am a person navigating the world while living with a range neurological disorders that include Tourette Syndrome, ADHD, OCD, ASD, and PTSD.

People may describe me as being open and honest about my life as i share a warts and all insight into life living with my conditions, although my wife would describe me most days as a hyperactive naughty adult child.

I have an adult daughter with ADHD and grandchildren with ADHD, Autism and Tic disorders.

I would not change a single thing about my life or my family, they are loving, funny, interesting and unique and I have gained a wealth of knowledge and experience along the way as well as some very interesting friends.

I have always believed that the more you learn about disabilities the more you understand them and the better you can live with them.
My posts are aimed to educate and give deep insight into the world around me and the outlandish world inside my head.

Please don’t take offence from my unique view of the world or the tics shared in my posts.

I have a passion for raising awareness and understanding of hidden disabilities and the lack of understanding and often ignorance toward them and the diary of my school years gives great insight into the life of an undiagnosed pupil.

Diary of an 80’s Neurodiverse Schoolboy

Through involvement at University, Charity, social media and now this website I aim to raise awarness and educate people about the daily trials and tribulations and quite often humorous times living with a group of conditions that work together to create something quite unique, while at the same time having a lot in common with other disorders.

 

Having learned  many techniques to help me navigate through this often crazy world carrying the vast range of Tic’s, obbsessions, sensory issues memory dysfuntion and many more problems that come along.

I use this knowledge and experience via peer support and worskshops to help others find their own techiques.

I was proud to receive a Healthwatch star award in 2020 and a Teesside hero award in 2021 for providing support, advocacy and education in Neurodiversity.

                

My diagnosis is still a work in progress and so is my gathering of knowledge and research.

I use creativity daily in various forms, the therapitc effect helps me to cope with the world.

I have found that music gets me through the day, the gym gets me out the door and  photography gets me out of Town.

My photography has become a passion that i am proud of and hope it inspires others to get creative please check out the Gallery or follow the links below to see more pictures from my travels.
