Hm intresting people that can feel pain only to look at someone else having pain. 🙄 Anyway good that she search evidence at least 🥳 There are so many sociopath so it's very good to educate. It's important when they can't feel remorse or empathy. How our humanity can survive for real.

"I want but I can't" the story of my life. Thank's for giving letting me know, it changes so much. ❤for all brothers and sisters that also suffers, I think it's very hard for others to imagine.

As a partner of somebody who has ADHD it’s rude. You basically feel like you’re not in the room and then you’re basically nothing and the person is not interested in anything about you or who you are or what you are. I am at the point of suicide because of my fucking wife carrying on like this and every time I bring it up she just tells me that it’s my problem. She’s got ATD and I’ve just got a deal with it. I can’t do it anymore. I know you’re driving into a fucking tree.

Such a punch in the stomach when your so alone 😔

Miss you Mark.. Thank you for your contribution to the world and it was a pleasure interviewing you on our podcast

Thanks to Dr. Goulston for opening my mind. I began to look at some things with a more mature look.

ODD in the US

This helped with my teaching adults in the trades.

i'm trying to write a quick gist. i've put off this video thrice so writing this to focus. so basically she is saying how to manage. 1. put allerts on wherever we are working (phone, computer) like alarms etc 2. use pomodoro to track what u have done in 25 min. 3. when studying or doing an important task do for a specifc time, the time till u have optimum focus.(after this u might feel drained) here pomodoro helps.

Curious, if Snoop Dogg is Neurodiverse.

Michael speaks very eloquently and seems to have decent/good memory.

Yes, children do blurt out information and go on and on about themselves if they are chatty and they are excited to talk about their lives without stopping to draw breath. It is charming. Not so charming in a fellow adult. It must be hard to not interrupt and talk about yourself if you are driven to do so. As a non ADHD person it is freaking impossible to communicate with ADHD people who are disregulated, have no communication/interruption strategies. Interrupting is not cute. Talking about yourself constantly is not cute. The idea of a "parking lot" is a great idea. By choice I would NOT have a conversation with a person with ADHD because of their comms style...it is intolerable.

Hey

is it a bit the same as not respecting people with authority at all? Ot does that have nothing to do with it? I never accept what a therapist or boss tells me, it has to vibrate with my own insight of what will work

I rarely comment on anything, but now, I have to. I've never felt so understood. My feelings never described so precisely. I am 34 years old, and school was a tremendous struggle for me. So are jobs, and so is pretty much everything else in my life. It all finally makes sense. All these demands, even of everyday life, are so anxiety-inducing to me, that it's only immediately after waking up, and only a little bit before going to sleep that I'm not anxious and paralyzed. I cried at this explanation and revelation. I have PDA. Thank you very much for this.

Anyone with neurodiversity needs to let employers know at the interview how best to work as a team. Just say "this is what motivates me and this is what discourages me as a person". The only tool an employer has is rewards. Find out what rewards every applicant and the business will automatically flourish.

I think I have more than misophonia. The interviewer here brings up similar rage within me for other reasons, no disrespect intended. Can anyone relate and pinpoint what it is?

My personal motto has always been "Always put off till tomorrow what you don't want to do today" I think i have pda. This way all my life. Waiting until last minute to do stuff, then having anxiety to get it done

The bad thing is that i don't want to change

I am this. I wondered why i dreaded doing stuffs i need to do.

I think that work skills are so incredibly important for young people. Its incredibly important for youth to have a variety of experiences over the summers and after school. People graduate university now without having ever worked, and only realize 10 years later that they would have rather been in the trades than in an office. Unfortunately, providing these experiences require community, or money, or time (or all 3!) and a lot of families dont have those. This is only rarely offered in the schools.

Thank you so much for this, Diane describes my experience so succinctly and I really do feel seen when I see content like this. I am very glad some people are looking into PDA and validating it. It's such a difficult way to live, and to feel like no one believes you is really tiring. I'm hoping one day it'll be acknowledged as a condition by the mainstream, and help will be tailored to us. It's a bit late for me in that regard but future generations deserve better support.

About the time you released this I was just about to rejoin the workforce with my own pattern of navigating my life. I received late diagnosis for Asperger’s at 46. Too late to save my marriage or my career. This simple understanding changed everything. Instead of blocking due to overwhelm I leaned into what I was feeling knowing and doing. Adopted simple tools to get me going again and organize life. Learned important patterns and slowly very slowly built a framework in time to guide me. Abstract and overly complex at first but once I understood remembered and trusted I was able to adapt and reorganize and simplify. A few iterations and I have mostly navigated my way out of dysfunction and anxiety. Seems obvious now but linking the if and then what and when was simply not possible before. Nor was the capacity for retaining information and connecting or organizing it. I’m still working on this. Bandwidth improving but still have gaps. What I do know is we can change and nothing is concrete. Baby steps.

Very good video and I am proud to have you as a friend, Holly!

Solid advice in this video. I’ve paired it with the Astirna New Tab extension, and it really helps me keep my priorities straight and my tabs organized.

This episode was so informative. I’m using Astirna New Tab now to help manage my daily tasks and it’s really streamlined my productivity.

Is the school accredited??

THis is where child educators who are empathetic and aware and responsive to individual needs is a MUST. WE are TEACHING little humans how to navigate this BIG world. WE ALL THINK differently. It's taught in ECE education , it ought to be taught to the larger corporate masses too!!

I definitely have this condition. It causes immediate rage and "Kill mode" with my body giving a heightened stress response. I hate noise. Dislike I can cope with far better at least. It's primarily the pitch of sounds that causes rage/kill mode

My childhood friend Courtney she has autism I really! Appreciate and I am so very happy that sesame Street is talking about autism now

Summary: Pomodoro technique. Set timers to refocus.

Couldn't this just a complex trauma response (for those who couldn't rely on getting basic needs met by parents and also had their autonomy suppressed, for example) + and are generically primed? Really trying to distinguish between something that was caused by a perfect storm, learned behavior and being born this way. And of course if you haven't been diagnosed into your 40s and 50s it's going to be a very difficult thing to change, if at all, regardless...

I’m 66 and self diagnosed. I am not taking any meds for it but would like to. I feel like I want to feel normal at least for a try,

Thank you!

People are using the term time blindness as an excuse now for not being able to be in time for work etc. That pisses me off. I know time gets away from me so I make adjustments and set alarms etc. to keep me on track and out the door.

Please just one thing this is very interesting about the problem is that for people that are outside your country is very difficult to listen to a conversation so fast like this everything is so important that should be comprehended by the other people from outside the country. So please I ask you with all my heart next time try to be a little bit slower and simpler because for us is really important to understand everything thank you so much for all your work

I’m confused when she says psychologists can’t diagnose. My doctor made the referral for testing and sent me to a neuropsychologist but unfortunately the person wasn’t taking new patients. So not all doctors are able to diagnose. So who is supposed to be equipped to do so for adults?

What is PDA?

Runs in my family. Expectations break people like us. Love and support without expectations is the fuel we run on. A lot of people don't know how to do that for us.

OMG the kids unjustly getting locked up this is tragic! Just occured to me.Didnt know this is me.

ME! LIVE FREE OR DIE! Thank you so much never knew

omg this is so me

I have combined . The biggest prob is the bias of and by women regarding this brain function.😢❤😂❤

I’m living with that from age 11, now in 65 ,my life is very hard . Trying navigate true life.Not go anywhere ,I can’t ,gum is most . What I think is on what frequency level I receive the noise, children outside is very hard ,having grandchildren,most difficult,my family sometimes say like can you just get over it,more I can explain is you turn into the Hulk,the big green man .,now use your imagination what he can do ,this is how is feel.

"They've had hurtful lives and they're figuring it out." Yeah I felt that one

When I was 26 and had my first child I recall thinking my house will never be clean or chores done again! Every time I has to stop to feed her, take care of her etc I felt I needed to start a task over. I didn’t but it feels like it. Like you’re start over all day! I still think I go back one step when interrupted during a big task. It’s a restart just a smaller restart now.

hate the fact i had to rewind this vid mad times cuz i keep losing focus 😂

I heard crowd pleaser and thought OH because I found that having a body double and even live streaming what I’m doing helps me get focused and on track Edit: did the quiz and I got deep thinker 🤔🤔🤔

Hello, I am not sure if this is the right way to do this but I am making an independent documentary about Autism and Unemployment. I already interviewed Dr. Fung in person on the Standford campus. Would I be able to use this video in my documentary? Or is there a better way I could get permission to do so?
