Discovered that I had adhd when I was about 6 or 7 and my mom got me prescribed to medication. When I started visiting my dad, he thought it was complete non sense and demanded that I stoped taking the medication. Years later when I was in high school I remember being extremely active & wanting to over achieve. I tried taking AP physics, honors Calculus, & AP English. Turned out I had a hard time studying and doing school work compared to my peers,so I concluded that I was simply just not as bright as the other kids. Later on after senior year of HS I become extremely depressed and just couldn't understand how my head worked. I thought there was just a million things I was doing wrong and came down on myself really hard. Now I realise that I've been hating my self because I've never understood myself.

3rd year medical student with adhd who got his diagnosis as an adult here. This is one of the best talks on adhd out there. The guest here mentioned how some people who come to him mentioned their struggle and it really saddens me because I understand exactly how they feel. The potential in us is literally not materialized to its maximum when you look at the big picture. Feeling of always running out of time on time sensitive matters even though your brain feels like it is traveling at the speed of light in infinite directions. A person with adhd can spend hours with their thoughts but feeling like time went by really fast. There are little things that affect us daily, like not remembering directions, taking wrong turns, not remembering peoples names, typing something but you notice there is a word missing here and there. Your brain is functioning at a level that your body can not keep up with it or execute a function in time. The feeling of being a jack of all trades but master of none. The daily struggle is real, like personally I am affected by it so much that I really dont know which specialty to chose because I am worried I will end up hurting someone if I forget something due to just how my brain operates. My biggest struggle is when I have to chart something during patient encounters because my brain is literally firing in all directions and i have to really focus on one thing at a time in order to complete it. When patient tells me their symptoms, I really have to focus on writing it down and during that time my brain loses train of thought and end up not asking the right questions. Your brain is always in a hurry and you really have to slow yourself down in order to achieve something. When I try not to write anything down during the patient encounter, my thought process is more clear and the encounter more natural and smooth. But when you try to chart it after the encounter, either I will miss something or it will take me time to recall everything and chart it. When I have to present patient encounter to my attending, I am so all over the place in my presentation that I look like a dumbass and sometimes forget to mention important things that I did ask.

Probably one of the best discussions/explanations of ADHD I have seen so far. The information/knowledge VS the mythology surrounding ADHD (despite the clinical data that has been accessible for decades) is rife even in DR's and medical practitioners. The NICE guidelines 2018 make it incredibly difficult to see a consultant as an adult even if you have been statemented as a child. Waiting lists tend to sit at around 3+ years (and i'm being kind there). Nothing raises your position on that list and first line (GPs), primary MH and secondary MH teams can only prescribe within their own remits [no fault of their own] which are very often treatments that are not recommended for someone with ADHD i.e. Antipsychotics, or drugs that can produce antagonistic results with dopaminergic and norepinephine reception. Where these drugs can help with the potential side effects of your ADHD symptoms they can also aggravate them over time. Be aware of this if you're seeking help. I'm not a Doctor and you should FOLLOW YOUR DOCTOR'S advice. But do your research and ask questions. Thank you for posting this video. ADHD is so hard to explain to people, especially when you are explaining 'yourself'.

Unfortunately I have not been able to confirm or deny the current diagnosis of being bi-polar or not and just adhd with the other side just being a more intense depression, but I'm not exactly sad. But more cumbersome? That's way to positive I think, really don't know the definition and dare not get lost looking it up and taking another year on this comment 😀 😄 😊 but I go to a mindset where I just lay in bed and I have no interest in doing anything for days sometimes. I'm not looking to deeply into it considering the past year though. But I've become very much a different person when it come to the way I view mental health and people with mental illness for certain. Good luck, find a routine and not a goal/reason, purpose whatever it may be that's to easily achieved 😉 the routine is a thing I struggle with the most still daily and I get lost on a temporary purpose to easily without structure.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1810">30:10</a> It's a bit condescending that the interviewer frames the only two kinds of adult patients as either "having true ADHD" or "just someone trying to get pills." What about the many misdiagnosed patients who are genuinely seeking help? Is there no third option where adults seeking psychiatric care are capable of responsibility? This quickness to label people seeking medical treatment as "just trying to get pills" is dangerous and is no doubt part of the reason why so many adults with ADHD are afraid to get help. It's also why so many adults get stuck and suffer for years from misdiagnoses - because any self-driven attempts to correct the diagnosis are seen as an effort to get drugs. I appreciate that Dr. Manos immediately addresses this in his response to her question.

Being told to do something and not doing it, having my mind wander. I have 100+ tabs on my phone of just useless stuff I look up because I thought about it. My passion is animals and I really want to become a Zookeeper, with that I need to pass college which has been a huge struggle. I've got the experience, but man seeing this has made me contact my psychiatrist to see about therapy for how to handle and cope with my ADHD, what I must do to help me stay on task.

Strattera made me feel horrible. Could only take 1 dose. I feel sorry for kids whose parents force them to take it. But adderall is not a cure all either. It's only one tool.

Problem with diagnosis - if there is a 'ruling out' stage, ie: patient also has signs of anxiety or depression. It is far more likely that women with ADHD will be misdiagnosed with depression or anxiety, and be put through the ringer with medications that never work. That is a big problem. We should be just as wary with these other so-called diagnoses because making a mistake could lead absolute torture with trialing other meds only to find they don't work, ever increasing doses etc... Just ridiculous. If all the symptoms are present, why not just trial somebody for a week on ADHD meds, at least the person won't get stuck/dependent on them like they would with antidepressants. If they work, the person will see the benefits immediately, vs. antidepressants that require at least 6 weeks. Path of less harm, in my view.

Adhd is a gift and a curse. I was affected so much that I developed the worst depression trying to end my life twice as a 14 year old kid. Knowing how smart you actually are and not being able to show it. being unable to keep relationships ending up alone again and again. feeling unloved and numb. And the fact that no one knew in my home about it made it so much worse for me. Now that Im learning how to use my gifts and makes me feel so much better..

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1037">17:17</a> that's what I've been seeing in a lot of people almost all my life. Most people tend to look back into the "traditional" (in whatever way they see it, as he said) and want it or want to apply it to the present, that will never be ideal. We must adapt to our current environment/situation/reality, positively speaking about uncontrollable circumstances/life style of course.

There is something you didn’t mention that goes along with the slowing down mechanism of mindfulness: asmr videos. The moment someone realises that the same way we direct attention to the sound in an asmr video, we can do it in real life, is the moment you understand how to control the focus and the default mode and all… I think asmr is an incredible tool!

This helped me so much, but the frustration is that Idk how well my mom will understand it. Seems like she's open to it, but then she still says stuff like "It's been cured" and "You took that medication for three months. s that not enough?" or "Yours is not that bad". Yeah, it's obviously not "that bad" or "cured" if just today I cried really badly for hours (I had such a headache I'm feeling sick) because I can't bring myself to focus on actually studying for the super important exam. Love her though. She is genuienly supportive nd tbh I bet if I talk a bit more to her about it then she'll get it.

I have borderline and adhd.... the bigger problem is the adhd.. my executive functioning is an enemy... if I enjoy something I can do it for days or YEARS non-stop.. but the minute it becomes mundane/boring/predictable... it can take me months to get around to a five minute task. Its torture. The adhd pills work wonders but they are so effective I end up taking too many and staying awake for days... my executive functioning is not strong enough to stop. So I get a few good days every few weeks. Its still better than none.

I need this man's help. He gets it! And after going 32 years misdiagnosed before finally getting to ADHD, I can't find one single person who gets it to help me. My life is melting down around me. It's affecting my children. My purpose was to end the poverty and mental health crisis cycles for my kids! I'm only making it worse, knowing I am, not knowing what to do. Paralyzed watching it all burn down. The mask is no longer able to be used for more than a very fast grocery run, if that.

What he thinks is a weakness, really may be a strength. Thank goodness for those of us ( AKA: these people) that see changes in the environment and quickly respond. The world deperately needs first responders. While everyone else is getting problem number 28 finished on that math worksheet that he keeps refering to, the youngsters with ADHD were ready for any and all crises. To heck with getting to building A on time. He should prioritize what's important. Stop and smell the roses. Someone needs to help him.

I am a mental health therapist diagnosed with ADHD as an adult after I already entered the field. I was diagnosed by a neurologist who I continue to see every six months. Of my siblings, one acknowledges I have ADHD because she has it too. My other two siblings think I’m just lazy. I have two bachelor degrees and two master’s degrees. I also have two jobs and help to take care of my elderly mother. But I’m lazy??? Smh. I’ve realized I’m never going to convince them otherwise.

"Primarily inattentive" seems inaccurate based on how ADHD is described here. If people with ADHD notice things, then it's not a problem with attention, but attention that's divided. It should be called "primarily unfocused".
