A Moment Please. While I Introduce Myself

Updated: Aug 11


Hello, I’m Troy.


For most of my life, I asked the kinds of questions that don’t always have clean answers.


The pattern started when I was child, it got me into all kinds of trouble. At times with authority figures, my parents, my employers, my friends, complete strangers … myself.


Why couldn’t I sit still when expected to? Why did my mind leap before my body caught up? Why did I buy that car, that camper trailer, that caravan, that boat? Why did i form attachments to things I didn’t need?


Why would I do it. Again, again and again?


I’d joke about my chaos, mask my patterns, and keep pushing forward … chasing the next buzz, the next idea, the next version of myself.


But everything shifted around my 48th birthday.


My son was diagnosed with ADHD. And during that same conversation, the specialist turned to my wife and me and said, “You know, ADHD runs in families don't you … it's a bit like height.”


That one sentence landed like a tuning fork. Something resonated. Something familiar.


Six months later, I had a diagnosis of my own. And a whole new lens to look back through.


What followed next was less of a breakdown, and more of an intense period of decoding.


This wasn’t just about distraction or forgetfulness. It was about understanding the architecture of my mind … the rhythms, the resistances, the runaway loops, the rushes of meaning that came faster than words could keep up.


ADHD, I learned, wasn’t the absence of attention. It was the amplification of it … in the wrong places, at the wrong times, and often for reasons no one else could see, let alone understand.


This website … and the tools I’m building … were born out of that realisation. Not to fix myself. But to understand myself … and others like me … on our own terms.


You’re not broken. You’re broadcasting on a different frequency. This is the truth for us neurodivergents.


Maybe that’s you too. Maybe you’ve spent years wondering why you feel too much, forget too often, start strong and fizzle fast.

Maybe you’ve lived with a quiet sense that something didn’t quite line up … in school, in work, in conversations that moved too slow while your brain wanders off.


You’re not alone. And you’re not a disappointment, not a mystery.


You’re just wired differently. And that wiring tells a story … in tone, in timing, in resonance.


If this feels familiar … if it lands … you’re in the right place.


Welcome. Let’s decode it, together.
