Let's be honest, fidgeting can be extremely distracting and flat out annoying.


There is no denying it. The person next to you who has been clicking their pen for an hour straight or literally shaking the couch with their self-diagnosed restless leg syndrome is hard to ignore. If watching or listening to someone fidget is too much for you to handle, just think about how annoying and distracting the need to fidget is for them.

Those of you who struggle with ADHD or simply the inability to sit still know better than anyone that the inability to focus comes with the need to fidget...and it SUCKS. So, I can imagine, having people constantly telling you to stop the one behavior that allows you to focus and/or chill out only makes the whole thing even more frustrating.

Fidget spinners prove that fidgeting doesn't have to be a bad thing.

According to many recent studies, including a study published by psychopathology and behavioral science pro Dr. Mark Rapport, people with ADHD need to fidget a bit in order to perform to their full potential. It helps them to have something to put all of their restless energy into.

Not only do fidget spinners allow for this, but they allow for it in a subtle, non-distracting way. The toys are fun and helpful enough to keep fidgeters entertained and on task, yet subtle enough to keep those surrounding the fidgeter unbothered.

FidgetAway.com is soon to supply these toys and become any fidgeters new best friend.

The website FidgetAway.com is launching soon to supply these spinners to frustrated fidgeters everywhere. The helpful and popular gadgets are small enough to take practically anywhere, including classes, exams, and work. As a plus, they're not only for those who struggle with attention problems.

Fidget Away's founder makes a point to share that the invention seems to be helping people with all sorts of struggles. For example, similar to how they allow those with ADHD to focus their energy, the spinners also allow counselees to focus on the spinner rather than the difficult subjects at hand during their counseling sessions. It seems like new uses and benefits keep being discovered!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
