🧠How ADHD Gave Me the Idea for Hocus, Focus…Poof!
By Stefan Bongaerts
Author of “Hocus, Focus…Poof!” – A.D.H.D? It doesn’t bother me.
Let me tell you a secret: I didn’t plan to write this book.
I didn’t sit down with a five-part outline or a color-coded timeline. I sat down… and then stood up, then checked my phone, then Googled “can pigeons have ADHD?” and then finally—somewhere between a chaotic burst of caffeine and creativity—this book was born.
✨ The Brain That Won’t Sit Still
Living with ADHD is like hosting a circus in your skull. There are tightropes, fireworks, runaway elephants—and no one told the ringmaster what time the show starts. But within that chaos, there’s also a kind of magic.
That magic is the spark behind Hocus, Focus…Poof!
It’s not a medical manual. It’s not a self-help book.
It’s a wink, a laugh, and a look inside a brain that doesn’t quite behave—but does create in the most unexpected ways.
🪄 A Spell Made of Stories
The book is a collection of moments—funny, raw, weirdly specific—that I think anyone with ADHD will recognize. The kind of moments where:
-
You walk into a room and forget why
-
You hyperfocus on something no one else cares about
-
You say “wait, what was I saying?”… mid-sentence
And somehow, instead of getting frustrated, I decided to write it down.
Not to complain about it. But to celebrate it.
📲 Why TikTok? Why Not!
You might be wondering—why promote a book about ADHD on TikTok?
Because TikTok is where people like me hang out.
It’s fast. It’s visual. It’s full of creators who think differently, express freely, and don’t wait for permission.
On my TikTok page, I share snippets from the book, personal rants, quick insights, and the kind of “yep, that’s me” humor that ADHD brains will instantly get.

📚 What the Book Is (and What It Isn’t)
Let’s get this clear:
-
❌ This isn’t a cure.
-
❌ It’s not about “fixing” yourself.
-
✅ It’s a permission slip.
-
✅ It’s a flashlight into the funhouse of the ADHD mind.
-
✅ It’s proof that you’re not broken—you’re built different.
And that “different” is what makes you brilliant.
🎩 So... Why Hocus, Focus…Poof!?
Because that’s how ADHD feels sometimes:
-
You try to focus…
-
Your brain disappears…
-
Poof!
And if you’ve ever lived that moment, or loved someone who has, this book is for you.
🙌 Come Join the Magic
If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, distracted, chaotic, or creatively unstoppable—I hope you’ll read the book. Or follow me on TikTok. Or both.
