This podcast really resonated with me. I’ve spent most of my adult life joking that I have the attention span of a three year old. I don’t KNOW what my issue is and at 71 I probably won’t bother being tested, my choice. But I chose a career that met my needs; nurse preferable in the emergency room, running task to task so little chance of boredom but able to have laser focus when I need it. And it wasn’t until Cass mentioned it, but I have an incredible number of “rules” for myself. A long list of activities I can’t engage in before I have to be somewhere or I won’t get to where I need to be. I can usually do a 5 minute pick up or clean the cat box without distraction, but not always. If I go to a restaurant in the winter I need to place my coat on the back of the chair and sling my purse over it, or I will get up, put my coat on and leave my purse behind. In the summer I sling it over my knee, if I don’t move it it trips me, if I set it at my feet I might as well just hand it to a random stranger, I just don’t remember. I am a list maker, but if I don’t put the list in my tablet (almost always in reach unless charging) if it is on paper I will “lose” it before I get the first task started. I’ve been lucky to find ways of coping that work for me. And Cass I love your classification system. I’ve known what works for me for years but I really appreciate having it “codified”. I am so much a bee that decades before I found you, I put honeycomb dividers in my sock and underwear drawers because I have to see each item. A jumbled pile of socks drove me to distraction, I want one pair of socks in each “cell” of the honeycomb. Not to say, there aren’t chaotic cluttered places in my home, but thanks to you and Dana and better understanding how my brain works and figuring out how to modify behaviors to not work against myself, it gets better everyday.

I was diagnosed at age 33. I am now 51. The diagnosis answered so many questions! I describe my natural, unmedicated state of mind as trying to outrun an avalanche. No single accomplishment alleviates the avalanche because there is a never ending demand for my attention and for action. But with treatment, I can see individual snow balls, so to speak, and I get to enjoy a sense of accomplishment. I can FINISH a task, or choose to interrupt it on purpose, and then come back to it. I am loving this podcast!

I could pay for a financial advisor etc. A lot of the downsides of ADHD can be managed with money. The first 2 alone would be life changing for me, that’s why I love Clutterbug

I’ve had some adhd tendencies forever but I kept my life really simple because I need control. In that sense I’m very boring but the last few years I began to wonder. Now that I have a 1 year old I’ve gone through testing. Based on meeting with me I did get an rx for adderall and 2 antidepressants but after getting brain mapping apparently all my recent symptoms appear to be caused by stress. Given my current situation it totally makes sense. This is just to say seek help to try and get to the root of the problem! On the other hand my husband is stereotypically adhd and I’ve been seeking solutions that will hopefully work for both of us moving forward. Listening to / watching Cass has been a major help for me to work with though this era of life!

I haven’t been officially diagnosed, but my PCP told me it sounds like I have ADHD. I became suspicious that I had it after my six year old son was diagnosed and I started researching it myself. I never in a million years would have thought of it as a possibility for myself. I did very well in school. Sure, I procrastinated all the time with the stuff I didn’t like, but I always managed to pull it off. I still remember my kindergarten teacher telling my mom that I lack organizational skills though lol. I’ve worked in the restaurant industry my whole life because I didn’t have enough self discipline to make myself make it to class on time in college. I also turned to alcohol and later drugs to deal with my crippling social anxiety and to slow my brain that was constantly overthinking every conversation that I had, thus leading to me eventually dropping out of college 😕. I’ve always been able to be successful and get promoted at work though because I have to ability to hyper focus when it’s busy. When it’s slow, it’s a completely different story though. Idk what TF I’m doing then. I’m 38 and Ive still never managed to be punctual to anything. It’s so bad that literally every where ever worked I’ve received a slow clap when I made it to work on time 😂. The day it finally clicked that I might have ADHD, I actually cried. It was such a relief to know what was wrong with me. To have a reason why I couldn’t get my life together, even when I work so hard. It made all the times I drove off without paying for my gas or lost my wallet or forgot to pay my bills etc make sense. Sorry for rambling and sharing my life story here. I just needed to share it with people who understand lol

It can really make it spiral because I’m having a hard time being treated, and medicated for these disorders. Post TBI. It’s devastating how it has impacted my life.

We suspect my sister in law has some form of ADHD and my brother is constantly frustrated and judging her. She's "in sight, still out of mind" basically. I suggested he put simple processes in place and more importantly, be the one who initiates each process since he's the one who notices and is bothered by clothes and mugs everywhere. Alas, he is stuck in the "I do my tasks, she does hers" mentality, while she unconsciously doesn't consider those tasks "hers" either and goes on doing what she likes. She doesn't judge herself, but that also means mugs growing mold under beds is a tiny blip before she moves on. I wonder if she's a rebel...

I do think thatit is great for every individual in to see their own positives ... But also I definitely think that us with ADHD need to know that there are positives because if we just look at it for all the negatives no matter what are race or social standing is in life.... It's going to hold us back more. People can be realistic... While also seeing the big positives that are there. I just wanted to say that to you Cas because I personally love your hopeful message whenever it comes to ADHD. Believing in oursleves despite the chaos that it can bring.

I find this very interesting as it makes me wonder how many women are misdiagnosed with ADHD when it may actually may be menopause. Or maybe the symptoms are just elevated due to menopause and life stressors (kids, etc.) during that time of life? Do you have any thoughts on that? Besides a brain scan, do you know of any sure-fire ways to know the difference?

OK, I’m not ADHD, but I do have dyslexia would share some treats with other Neuro divergent… I have to say this messaging from your guest is way off… there have been studies show that well yes certain regions of the brain like the prefrontal cortex do not get as much blood flow to that area. There are other sectors of the brain for Neuro divergence they get significantly more blood flow that actually do allow them super powers… For instance, as a point to show about dyslexia as I’ve looked up some things with regards to stats on functioning dyslexics … we make up roughly 15 to 20% of the population but make up 40% of the self-made millionaires. We also make up roughly 35% of the entrepreneurs in a large number of us go to work as either architects, engineers of varying kinds, and artists… to that point NASA actually hires roughly 50% of their engineers, as dyslexic because they have the super ability to connect, seemingly desperate pieces of information and find patterns where others struggle or cannot identify patterns. By the way, it is not just dyslexic that are good at this, people with ADHD, also doing fairly well collectively, in this ability to identify patterns… I like to think of it is yes, well people who are Neuro divergent have a super power. There is a cost that comes along with that.
@stephanieboyette51802 күн бұрын
One more thing to add to this point… yes, the cost can be high and that’s where neurodivergent had to work extra hard to help themselves in the areas for the struggle… but I have to say in my 46 years of existence, I will see more amazing things come out of people who are Neuro divergent than I ever have the Neurotypical… not to say they aren’t smart it’s just their brain is wired differently, and they disperse their efforts more evenly across their brain. Where is Nuro divergent, hyper focus, blood flow and efforts to different parts of the brain under different conditions. That said it is the reason why were able to excel at endeavors that others wouldn’t even attempt to dabble in unless they were going for a masters or doctorate degree… that’s the power of a Neuro divergent brain. Again there are cops involved, and some people with the right support, especially in early childhood have an easier time of managing those costs.

I appreciate the time you’ve put into this content, however when the guest referenced TikTok as a main source for education she lost a lot of credibility. Social media has no oversight or regulation with regard to scientific research or education. At best it’s just one person’s anecdotal experience and that’s if it’s not a sponsored post. Please don’t get your education from TikTok 🤡

She’s very credible and knows what she is doing. I was part of her program focused. She was just referencing that the topic is being discussed on a variety of social media platforms.

Idk if she has ever watched a marvel movie. Those with super power and are different are always marginal

I haven’t watched this interview yet but I believe the carnivore diet actually either helps or reverse’s this condition.

@@wisteria4981 i do hope you just dont go off some hear say tough, just because loads of people say so, doesnt make it true. Bit out of context but just to explain what i mean by thinking for yourself/check sources: if you are in a room with a blue sweater and everyone is claiming you wear a red sweater, would you believe them that your sweater is indeed red now?

I agree with you. There’s plenty of evidence that the Carnivore Diet helps on many levels. Make Eating Meat Great Again! 🎉

Do you understand what ADHD is? We don’t mean to interrupt. It’s part of impulse control.

They are children, not kiddos. I don’t like that term.
