I could remember few years back after my wife died, I was left alone with 3 kids. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with ADHD. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment changed my life for better. I can proudly say i'm totally clean for 6 years and still counting. Always look to nature for solution to tough problems, Shrooms are phenomenal.

[@MartFrancis]

I love hearing great life changing stories like this. I want to become a mycologist because honestly mushrooms are the best form of medicine (most especially the psychedelic ones) There are so many people today used magic mushrooms to ween off of SSRI medication- its amazing! Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death buddy, lets be honest here.

[@FernandoSalinas-eq9oy]

Hey mates! Can you help with the source? I suffer severe anxiety, panic and depression and I usually take prescription medicine, but they don't always help. Where can I find those psilocybin mushrooms? I'm really interested in treating my mental health without Rxs. I live in Australia don't know much about these. I'm so glad they helped you. I can't wait to get them too. Really need a reliable source 🙏

I'm so very happy for you mate, Psilocybin is absolutely amazing, the way it shows you things, the way it teaches you things. I can not believe our world and our people shows less interest about it's helpfulness to humanity. It's love. The mushrooms heals people by showing the truth, it would be so beneficial for so many people, especially politicians and the rich who have lost their way and every other persons out there.

[@kylebazzar7994]

Totally normal for people to relate to some of these from time to time. An ADHD person experiences most of these on a daily basis without fail. This video is upbeat but living with ADHD isn't a walk in the park but with a few quirky differences. when your brain bombards you with 100 thoughts at once, all day, all night... and it's like that every single day, it becomes extremely stressful and leads to pretty bad anxiety as well. My brain doesn't shut off, ever. It plays a role in everything, I'm 30 years old and my whole life I tried to pretend I didn't need help... and that I could do this all on my own, well here I am finally seeking help. This video was awesome btw I don't know how im barely seeing this now. I use to watch Ryan every day.

[@BunnyEZ]

I'm in the process of seeking help as well, but the only time I can feel like my brain doesn't have 1000 other thoughts is when I'm exhausted and want to sleep, it kind of feels like they're not as distracting so I just pass out. If I was trying to fall asleep while not really tired, it would be a difrent story. I'm still figuring things out, so I'm not sure if this is relatable, but that's how it is for me.

[@ayusharyan683]

Some people don’t rlly notice symptoms until they get a bit older and life gets harder to manage. That’s what happened with me. When you start to feel like your life is being extremely negatively impacted by somethings youve tried to fix but it just won’t happen that’s when you probably should see a doctor. I would wait it out for now. And I would also try to not get addicted to your phone. Overstimulation can give a person adhd-like symptoms.

[@aura4763]

other (lesser known) symptoms of ADHD that i have, and maybe you do too: - hyperfocus: basically the opposite of the cliche “ooh butterfly”, where for an amount of time, usually between matter of hours to a couple days, you’re super focused on one thing, almost to the point of not being able to stop, even to the point (in severe cases), not eating or sleeping for days at a time solely because you couldn’t tear your focus away from doing one thing for even a short period of time. - self medication: some people that don’t take prescribed medication for their adhd are able to self medicate with caffeine, like coffee or energy drinks (yellow redbull is my favorite). It gives roughly the same effect as taking meds, i.e., less fidgeting and better focus. - can’t learn things from videos: i’m not sure why this happens, but if a lecture is uploaded in a video form, it’s a billion times harder to learn and take notes, even with the ability to rewind. - adhd depression: where it feels like there’s nothing to do, nothing sounds fun or appealing. you don’t want to read, watch youtube or netflix, exercise, etc, so life just feels bleak and boring and you usually just end up sleeping a lot, because although it’s boring, at least its something to do. i hope you got some education, or further understanding of the enigma that is ADHD, and i hope you have an amazing day!

adhd gets misdiagnosed 20% of the time and contains co morbid illnesses. the problem with that is many illness's especially revolving around mood and anxiety disorders co habitate a lot of the same symptoms. Id recommend not jumping to conclusions and seeing a dr. there's a chance you actually have a mood disorder. Having "mild adhd" doesn't exactly work that way while on a spectrum its not stronger to weaker its more type 1-2 and combined + symptomatic vs not. Bi polar and borderline personality disorder are common misdiagnosis and involve the not smiling thing heavily =)

And, I love how fast he talks, I am always told to slow down, don't speak so fast. I heard someone respond when told to slow down, why don't you keep up? That's how I've always felt. Unfortunately, I got diagnosed because I have been having SO much trouble with my career, which is possibly failing the PhD I started before I realised I was ridiculously bad at project managing a 'giant' idea into a really tiny focused piece and not realising about the every thought leading to another would be a bad thing - worked great all the way up to no at Uni and in life, but anyhoo...It is just really frustrating bc it feels like I'm failing and I so know all about the subject and its brilliant but I just can't figure out all the little boring bits that I needed to do, but nobody told me and there was no way that I'd figure it out, and there is nobody who can really help me at the university, so I am doing a paper equal to about 6 months work in a few weeks - which is great, because I need the pressure but I just feel rather isolated because Im sure from their perspective it would be completely frustrating working with me just as its completely frustrating getting given pretty straight forward instructions, and at the time when they give them to me I think, yeah thats simple I can do that but then when I begin the work myself, I get completely confused and over-complicate it and am always behind because of being too embarassed to ask for help for what feels like ALL THE TIME!!!!

Or the fact that I am ALWAYS playing an imaginary piano to a song that I’m listening to - even at 2am when I’m up late and can’t sleep. Or the fact that I can’t sit down and have a phone call unless I’m doodling something (I am an art KZbinr in my defence) Or the fact that throughout school and my career, I always felt like that guy who couldn’t keep up - didn’t quite “have what it takes” regardless of my very persistent efforts Or the fact that my KZbin videos, which are long-form talks about art career related things - are 100% of the time, completely freestyle. I just come up with a topic that I feel is important and go on about it until that thought exhausts itself. I literally check off everything on that list - and I haven’t mentioned yet, I’m a fairly successful 46 year old (at least, successful now - but it was a rough road to get here) And lastly, two of my 3 kids have ADHD (one diagnosed so far) - and I’m dating someone with ADHD - and I love people with ADHD, their humour, their sharp whit - like Girlfriend Reviews or Jim Carrey or well..

I have ADHD (I was actually diagnosed when I was 4, and took medication) and I had to stop the video in the middle a think of how this related to me so well, but then my mind went crazy and after about 20 minutes, I wanted to listen to music so I went back to KZbin and saw that this video was paused on KZbin so I finally finished watching it.

I relate to the music part

[@trimonmusic]

I was jigging my leg to the current song that's stuck in my head, while playing with my Rubik's cube. I'm 23 and also on the waiting list for a diagnosis. 😂 Despite watching Ryan a lot when I was younger, somehow I missed this one. Would have provided a lot of clarity in my schooling years.

@@abdibarre7454 you know, with us Muslims. We don't know much about mental disorders we assume its is jinn effects and stuff like that. I have had this condition since I was fourteen.

Its only recently that I thought about mental disorders and on making more research, I just figured yeah this is it. But I need to see a therapist for better diagnosis and treatment.

Back in school, when the teacher was saying stuff, i wrote everything, But my mind would go wondering off. at the end of the class, i didn't even remember what the lesson was about, but i had written everything down! Even if the teacher went talking about something else or told a joke or a story, i would unknowingly write those stuff down too!

I watched this when I was 14 and the video first came out. Didn't know what ADHD was at the time and thought "hahaha another funny AND relatable Ryan Higa video".
