Base camp for adults navigating ADHD in the real world.
Built around your book. Yours to say yes or no.
Every channel and every bot exists for a specific reason. No off-topic noise. No features added just because they seem cool.
Structured daily rhythm — check-ins, co-working, wins. Nothing algorithmic, nothing random. Everything has a job.
Intentionally separate from Fruit Snack Nation and Infinite Quest. Its own community with its own identity.

Sets the daily rhythm of camp life
• Morning + evening prompts create a daily rhythm
• Weekly digest is anonymized — no individual data
• Streak tracking is opt-in positive reinforcement only
Mood states tentative — may be refined with Cate
The buddy system — no one works alone
• Celebration messages randomised — never repeats twice in a row
• Session pairing data not retained after session ends
• Users opt in to session history tracking
Accessible knowledge — never clinical, never condescending
• No book content until licensing is signed — placeholder only
• Grounding exercises are trauma-informed and non-clinical
• Tips drawn from independently written ADHD strategies
Points true north when members lose their way
Asks: 'What's the smallest possible first action — even a 2-minute version?'
Names the pattern without shame and offers one concrete re-entry point.
Skips the pep talk — asks what's actually in the way right now.
Does not ask more questions. Immediately surfaces a human mod.
The counselor's cabin is a safe space to land — not a substitute for professional support. One question at a time. Always routes to a human mod. Zero clinical advice.
Announces wins — every size earns a place on the wall
• Wins of any size count — getting out of bed is valid
• No streak pressure: missing days doesn't break the count
• Community wins feed is opt-in — members choose visibility
Weekly quests — small, achievable, never punishing if missed
• Small and achievable — always
• Missing a week is explicitly framed as fine
• No shame mechanics, no penalty streaks
• Weekly anonymized participation summary posted
Where the community gathers to think together
Intimacy, not exclusivity — an addition, never a gate
• Discord's native Patreon integration — no custom bot needed
• Supporters automatically receive a server role when they connect
• Role unlocks access to The Fireside channels
• If they cancel Patreon, the role is removed automatically
• Zero manual management required
The exact perks are Cate's call — but the structure supports:
Always routes to a human mod. Zero automated clinical advice. Logs are anonymized and mod-only. The counselor's cabin is a safe space to land — not a substitute for professional support.
No real book content until licensing is signed. Independently written placeholder content only. Your voice, your approval before anything ships.
No shame mechanics. No punishing streaks. Missing a week is explicitly framed as fine. Community safety over engagement metrics.
Session pairing data is not retained after a session ends. Users opt in to session history. No data collected without consent.
This entire camp is SFW — by design, not by default.
Not hidden. Not restricted. Not there. No NSFW channels exist on this server — period.
Explicit content filtering, slur blocking, harmful language rules — active at launch.
ADHD Field Camp for Adults is explicitly adult. Camp language does not mean youth audience.
No personal info sharing. No unsolicited DMs. Any behaviour targeting minors = immediate removal.

We'd love to call you Camp Director — but it's yours to define.
Weekly or biweekly? Your call — it can evolve. The structure supports either, and members can vote over time.
What's the 'little something extra'? Early access, Q&A, exclusive tips — the perks are entirely yours to define.
Compass always routes to human mods. Who should that be, and what's the escalation path?
Deeply involved or checking in quarterly — the level of collaboration is entirely yours to define.
