What It's Actually Like Living With ADHD

[@soy6505]

I just want it to be known that ADHD IS a disability, and while she seems really happy with her ADHD (which I’m so happy for her about!!) it’s way worse for some people, and we have a much tougher time with many things and less pros. It depends on the person, and no one should go around gaslighting people for hating their ADHD. For some people that is their truth.

[@madisonreynaud4300]

I agree with this. I hate my ADHD. It’s a burdening feeling and a frustration for me. It’s hard to do most of anything, but medication helps at times.🙃

[@Your_fave_addie_.10]

@@madisonreynaud4300 me too. My ADHD causes me lots of problems. However since i get good enough grades and work hard enough (which is a huge stress toll for me) my family acts like it doesn’t exist.

[@aydibil5216]

yes!! i have adhd and exercising is like the most impossible task for me xD also i don't like performing or very intense experiences because i have a lot of anxiety around them. i actually am very creative but i can almost never create. watching how she doing all these projects here with an empty stomach & not able to cook one meal for myself loool

[@Nicole-fb6fr]

Same here! It's debilitating for me. No matter how hard I try getting simple things done can feel like climbing a mountain for me. I'm constantly having multiple dialogues in my mind which is exhausting! It's so hard for me to stay focused on ONE task unless I'm hyper focused, and being so impulsive has put me in very dangerous situations and has caused me to make huge mistakes. I'm constantly zoning out, forgetful, restless, highly emotional, sensitive to sounds and sensations the list goes on and on! I'm looking to get medicated soon which costs THOUSANDS of dollars in Australia and it's not covered by health insurance or medicare. There's literally no support for people with ADHD in Australia it's a nightmare! Yeah, I'm creative, generous, funny and have unlimited energy at times but there's far more negatives then positives!

[@noelle7755]

I definitely am the type to hyper-focus on things I like to do but if it's something I slightly don't want to do I'm totally dissociated and inattentive. I also have the memory of a goldfish and I'm super fidgety which can be annoying to others but I've stopped apologizing for something I cannot really control. Glad to see a woman talking about this, people need to know it's not just in boys

[@zoe-wb2qv]

ur so pretty pls

[@rahbeeuh]

Goldfish actually have a decent memory. The memory of a crow seems more likely as they can remember where they store food for months but they have issues recalling things in other contexts. Dogs might be accurate for some as studies show they don't remember much after 2 minutes

[@Julessteenbergen]

yoooo me too!!! lots of happy and focused stims

ADHD Inattentive here. Thanks for speaking about this. Much of this I can echo in myself. It is a struggle. I was diagnosed in grade 4 and for all of my college years I refused to believe it still existed in me. It had, but it changed how I did things in life. I always saw it as a negative. Now I see it in the positive light that it can be.

[@dailydoseofmedicinee]

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.

[@liliyurch2511]

My ADHD makes it hard to find romantic relationships (I’ve never had one); I feel like nobody can match my energy or I’m too much with too many interests

[@ellegaitor2887]

I handle mine well most of the time but the what I call “adhd meltdown” is awful. The point where you need sleep but your over tierd and your body goes into a fight of flight state your arms and legs physically hurt like you need to kick and punch over and over but your in bed you need sleep and even physically running wouldn’t calm the feeling down it physically hurts every nerve is alight and shooting with pain etc. X

Sounds like anxiety attack mixed with some other stuff

[@baby.goblin]

There’s so much more to ADHD than attention deficit... emotional dysregulation, rejection sensitivity, procrastination, lack of motivation.. and being prone to addiction and depression because of all that. When I was growing up here in the US ADHD was over diagnosed in kids, and they were given stimulant drugs at a young age. Which is just fucking absurd and cruel. We need to be trained to learn to work with our brains and our energy levels.. and try to regulate dopamine in a natural way when possible.

[@liltunturi1251]

Well said, we only got one brain. If it gets f*cked with, it usually wont be permanent, but it can take years to get balanced again. We should be presented and educated with more options to treat mental disorders. And not saying medication is a bad way to go, but the patient has to be fully educated on the long-term potential side-effects. These medications are heavily researched and tested, so if we do choose the medication assisted treatment, there should be less "invasive" options too. Aka substances that can be safely removed without withdrawal complications and less addiction potential etc. The more chemically "intense" medications (like alprazolam/benzos, some ssri´s, amphetamines/methylphenidates) should only be prescribed for a strictly limited period of time with proper guidance from professionals. It is sad that lots of people cant afford or dont even have access to these institutions, because government money is just going to I dont even want to say where to:) Yeah thank you for your comment, there is always more than meets the eye.

[@kingblackthorn4195]

I also have ADHD. I have to say I fully love that they mentioned the fact that ADHD is different for everyone. Someone with ADHD may be able to sit down and read for a full day, sitting mostly still and focussed. They still have ADHD. I myself, was only recently diagnosed but I kind of always knew I had it. I just was never picked up on because of the fact that I was not a ADHD boy that was disruptive in class, I was an ADHD boy that got good grades and was not disruptive. It sucks it took until I was in college to get diagnosed. However, I did know stuff was wrong when I loved stimulus stuff. As she said, anything for an adrenaline rush is amazing for someone with ADHD.

I'm just starting to experience the time passing quickly thing now! I just switched adhd meds a couple of days ago. Hadn't actually realised that was what was happening until you mentioned it.

[@asianangel5400]

I have adhd for sure. In order to keep my adhd under control I became a minimalst. Im obsessive about being tidy and no clutter. I've learn to adapt, but some days are tough. I tend to make my days structured but not packed. I have hyper energy for things I love. I enjoy new things all the time. I am learning how to become a reseller and I go thrifting often. It's an experience that's new everyday, so I enjoy that. I take no meds but it's because I've learned through the years how to adapt. I'm visually impaired as well so adapting to limitations has always been apart of my life.

[@Ashley-ro4xz]

I thought it was the only one. Oh man . The only reason I became one was because my mom always had a clutter and I hated having so many things it makes me anxious. It makes sense now.

[@edwardwalden05]

I’ve always had trouble with staying focused. I literally have to turn my music down to park my car, because the music is distracting. I can’t multitask, and i have issues with finishing things. It’s so frustrating at times, because you end up going down a rabbit hole of different activities to get that dopamine. One of my biggest fears is being bored. I’m always thinking about having fun, which i know is a bad thing, but i can’t help but to want to enjoy myself all the time.

Internalizing it, is an understatement for me. I ended up picking my skin unfortunately. Strict parents who didn't quite understand that it was serious when the doctor told them to bring my to a psychiatrist... It was a different time in the 90s, so I don't blame them. I'm just glad I got the help as an adult. I'm the same, hyperfocusing on leathercrafting, nail sculpting and any other craft I've acquired in my life. Just hearing how much I relate to others is comforting.
