So, about three months ago My therapist noticed that I was having a very hard time keeping my thoughts together, and remembering crucial details. So he asked me if I had ADHD. I sat there for a moment going "huh... you know, I've never been diagnosed with it. But if I have it that would of made a lot of my struggles throughout school make a lot more sense." And so, he started asking me about my time in school. I basically told him that I've never been a fan of homework, that oftentimes it would take me several hours to complete one math assignment and it was a struggle. I also told him about my time in creative writing, where I didn't fail the coarse because I wasn't doing the assignments. I failed the coarse because I got too inspired and started working on too many projects at once. Couldn't finish them due to time constraints. My parents often chocked it up to me being lazy, inattentive, and just generally not caring. By the time I graduated HS, I had to fight hard for a D in both math and Senior Seminar just to barely pass, and graduate with the rest of my class. You can imagine how badly that got me in trouble with my parents. I entered the work force, and for about six years I've been the average, quiet guy that everyone kinda avoids, but doesn't fire because he's a hard worker. Long story short, my therapist sent me to my primary care and had me tested. The results were overwhelmingly positive. I got put on medication, and now--within the last three months--I have become an employee of the month nominee and everyone counts on me. It's been surreal. I've also noted a greater ability to focus on my creative goals, and now have a plan for how to get the fantasy series I've been working on my entire life off the ground, and made into a TV series. It all honestly makes me wonder what my life would of been like had I been diagnosed way sooner. What I could have accomplished, and it's all exciting to think about! So please. If those of you reading this suspect you may have it: then get yourself tested! You might be far more capable than you think!

Thanks for this I relate so much to this! I get my results back next week all my life I’ve struggled so much with starting something and then not completing it. Hoping to just have a better life 🙏🏾

Not hard when you watch on 2x

have i shown you the world of downloading videos so that you can actually finish it and not just watch 3 minutes of it and then click off?

[@anna-lenameijer9942]

I did: I'm a teacher and I have these pupils/students in my classes, but we get very little help to manage these persons. It's much easier with dyslectic students. The explosive/unpredictive side of ADHD is very tiering for everybody involved. Very informative, thank you.

[@paxChristi.]

@@anna-lenameijer9942 a lot of times adhd isn't treated as an actual illness and people don't make an effort to make us feel safer and understood so thank you for being that person to your students, im sure it'll mean a lot to them as it does to me :)

[@qpbtz9847]

Thank you so much for the video and the test! I never thought I was ADHD before, but I could relate to this

[@skybluskyblueify]

A smaller brain eh? I guess that's just in some of us. The size may or may not be helpful in whatever neurology they have. Who's to say what underdeveloped means? --besides resulting in behavior that the evaluator may not favor. I'd tread carefully with these terms. You have not even mentioned "rejection sensitivity". This is a very common symptom.

[@edfromyoutube3917]

Please make a video and test like this for OCD.

[@sineadpereira8035]

Been waiting for this video😭

[@pyschologygeek]

ADHD is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders of childhood. It is usually first diagnosed in childhood and often lasts into adulthood. Children with ADHD may have trouble paying attention, controlling impulsive behaviors (may act without thinking about what the result will be), or be overly active.

[@shaneyg1988]

Zoned out watching this and only got 5.13 in before stopping. May have ADHD 😂

Hyperactivity and impulsiveness being unable to sit still, especially in calm or quiet surroundings. constantly fidgeting. being unable to concentrate on tasks. excessive physical movement. excessive talking. being unable to wait their turn. acting without thinking. interrupting conversations.

[@floydkho]

i ended up pausing the video for like a hundred times and do other stuffs before ultimately finishing it, not sure if im just uninterested or my ADHD is kicking wildly

whoosh..after taking that test looks like I gotta see a professional.

[@MadhusudhanKekelathur]

[@millyfr7783]

I feel like this video isn’t geared towards an adhd audience at all. It’s long, slow, and not hugely interesting. I had to watch in 2x speed and full screen mode to stop myself from getting distracted by the comments.

Heyyyyy I've heard of ADHD!! Its what they usually diagnose little Black boys with in school

[@cypher686]

Nah, that’s what the parents diagnose their kids as an excuse for their kids behaviours and bad parenting

lol that sounds kinda racist in a way

Where is the mention of exceptional positive attributes common with ADHD. List any below that you are aware of:

[@llonden6998]

My son diagnosed with it, but he's normally one of the smartest kids in class.

[@Serothil_and_stuff]

HYPER FOCUS!!! At least that's what it is called in my language. Basically the Ability to concentrate on something hard enough to actually not even recognize when someone repeatedly calls for you. -A stronge sense of justice -Tolerance -Creativity -The Ability to learn increasingly faster and easier the more we are interested in a topic, up to a ridiculous lvl -Non linear thinking -the ability to tolerate higher stress levels than a non ADHD person (double edged sword trust me I know) -multitasking -incredibly fast reflexes -island knowledge And many more, I just can't think of rn because I'm tired.

I tried to watch this but stopped to make dinner then got a stain on my shirt and had to do the laundry then realized I had no laundry soap so I went to the store and forgot why I was there so I thought maybe I made a note in my phone. I didn't so here I am writing this comment in the household good section of walmart with $100 in crap but can't remember why I actually came here.

None of my class mates had ADHD. No one in my school, neighbourhood or city had ADHD. No one even knew such a thing existed. ADHD is the trendy name for bad behaviour.

[@lukadaring7]

No it’s where I literally am not physically able to sit still or think about 1 thing. It just means my minds like a bunch of p pole talking about random stuff that’s happening with 1 louder voice ( main thinking ). I’m very impulsive and wish I could just think normally and have had a horrible time in primary school because of this, even when I tried my hardest to focus. And I’ve only got it moderately ☹️
