Im so sad that we can’t follow someone that honest with himself and other that demand a lot of courage it’s impressiv. My father is an alcoholic too and I know how it’s hard for your the most and for people that love you. I’m sending you more power and inner strength not to fight that but to heal it. Love u never give up BIG LOVE FROM SWITZWERLAND❤🇨🇭

While I do agree that most people aren't forced through experiences that cause this self awareness until after their 20s, some of us are definitely forced to well before our 20s. For some people, their choice is to find this realisation before they even hit 20, or not make it to 20.

It's not a choice though. It's, as you said, being forced, no matter how early or late.

Actually being ADHD has a direct impact on how likely ppl are to be addicted. Because ADHD includes impulsivity, and addiction can be seen as an impulsivity driven self-medication. Addictive substances mostly have the function to manage emotions and thoughts and dissociate internally from them. Dr. Alok Kanojia from HealthyGamer (HG) taught it very well to the community. Amongst the things he explained was, that ppl tend to have the best outcomes with ADHD + [name addiction] when ppl tackle them in tandem. Aka ppl are more likely to run into hurdles when they "only" tackle one of them. As they are basically just two Ends of the same way how we function. Aka he often talks about "it's not a bug, it's a feature" LOL. So, ...we could say that ppl leaning into addiction is what happens when their brain goes for the unhealthier (and often indeed 'easier' and more 'addictive') option of the very useful build in features for "self-regulation". And ADHD brains are specifically not too well equipped to regulate internally, so we're in need of more external regulation. And the world trips us up by providing all these easily accessible addictive things that'll get the job done - at first - but then will present the horrifying price way down the road. Like: the brain is hardware from times when finding/gaining nutrients was hard, so it has a feature of favouring sweet n greasy things. Now, in time of abundance, that feature can turn out to be fatal. ADHD brains are high processing brains able to jump onto high risk, high gain opportunities like no other, cause our impulsivity is stronger than our inhibiting safety mechanisms X'D And that's twice the reason to slip into addiction nowadays. Failing to resist the call of addictives + low chance of concerns getting to inhibit the behaviour...!!! In a sense, learning how ADHD brains work, can highly supplement our ability to manage and avoid addictive things. Our brains crave input. If we acknowledge that we're the least likely ppl to stop when things get "risky", then we can hit the breaks, "get out of there" and reach out for support much earlier into the process. We can get access to medications that stimulate the inhibiting parts of our brains (aka better impulse control). Most importantly: It can help us to acknowledge how our predispositions lead us down the addictive illness road, just like a person with predisposition for heart disease was lead down theirs. And to be kinder with ourselves and more aware, where, how and what help we need.
