You're probably familiar with the study showing that children with ADHD are MORE stressed on the weekends than during the week. (And, while it hasn't been studied in adults, I hear similar reports.) With the weekend comes lots of unstructured time, after the (mostly) regular routines of the weekday. And, lacking structure, motivation and initiation can go out the window, often resulting in negative behaviors that boost adrenaline, such as picking fights. Your strategy heads off this stress -- and builds in more fun and pleasure. Kudos! Gina Pera, author Is It You, Me, or Adult A.D.D.? This is SUCH a great idea, Candace.
