💜 For ADHD awareness month, we spoke to Annabel Bouteloup, a previous service user and Community Liason for CDARS and Wandsworth & Richmond Community Drug & Alcohol Service.

Annabel shared some vulnerable details from her past, the difficulties she encountered due to her late diagnosis, and how she is now using her own experiences to support those struggling with the overlap between ADHD and addiction.

A helpful reminder

When you worry, you are not thinking — you are looping. Your mind keeps replaying the same problem, but never moves an inch closer to the solution.

Worry is like sitting in a rocking chair — you feel like you’re moving, but you’re going nowhere. It drains your energy, clouds your clarity, and magnifies the problem in your head until it feels bigger than life itself.

No solution has ever been born out of worry. Solutions are born from calm observation, clear thinking, and focused action.
When your mind is restless, you are not in control — your fears are.

The truth is, 90% of the things you worry about never even happen. And for the other 10%, worry still doesn’t help — action does.

So when you feel worry creeping in, pause. Breathe. Step back. Ask yourself: What can I do right now that actually helps? Then do that — and let go of the rest.

Remember:
Worrying doesn’t take away tomorrow’s troubles. It only steals today’s peace.
