Becoming Fergs

Still learning. Always changing. Forever becoming.

Hi, I'm Fergs!

A newly married, late-diagnosed ADHD witch in her 40s.

As I step into this new chapter, I’m embracing the messy, beautiful journey of growth, navigating marriage, unmasking my ADHD, and pushing myself far beyond my comfort zone.

After decades of quietening my inner witch, I’m finally letting her speak. There’s a lot for me to unpack and learn about my own magic - however that looks to me! 

Here, you’ll find me reflecting, ranting and trying to navigate life with healthy doses of self compassion, awareness and personal growth. 

Grab a cuppa, succumb to your own reading ritual, and join me in the magical chaos of figuring out what becoming Fergs really means.

Britain’s gone bat shit crazy. Everywhere you look, there’s a flag flapping halfway down a lamppost like someone with T-Rex arms tried to hang it after three pints of Stella and a fight with their lass.

ADHD: The Reality of Life on Elvanse

When you first get prescribed Elvanse (Vyvanse in some countries) for ADHD, it can feel like a lifeline you’ve been waiting for your whole life. You read online stories about people getting their lives back, finally finishing tasks, and feeling “normal” for the first time. But the reality of taking Elvanse is often more complex, more personal, and sometimes, messier than you might expect.

Reflecting on My Career Growth

For a number of years I’ve found myself going through regular cycles where I shift from contentment to discontentment within my career.  Anyone who knows me laughs and reassures others that I am just going through this "I'm quitting!" phase again.  I'll take a break, refocus my energy on something that interests me and get over myself... until next time.

Simple 'Spells' You Don’t Think Are Witchcraft

You might not call yourself a witch. You might roll your eyes at the word “spell.” But if you’ve ever whispered a wish before blowing out birthday candles, stirred your tea while thinking of something you want to happen, or placed a crystal on your windowsill because it just feels nice there—you’re closer to everyday magic than you think.

Living with ADHD in Your 40s

I used to think I was just messy. A bit forgetful. Prone to starting projects and never quite finishing them, leaving half-painted walls and notebooks filled with plans I’d outgrow before the ink dried. I thought everyone felt the constant buzz in their head, the low hum of ideas and to-do lists colliding together, until I suddenly found myself stuck on the sofa in a period of executive dysfunction where I couldn't get myself into the kitchen to cook dinner.
