i like the self hug. that was lovely and i felt the heartbeat just when you mentioned it which was so odd. interesting.

I’m definitely going to watch this video in front of a couple people I know… (hopefully they overhear) I can see these definitely helping in certain situations ❤

also, I'm stunned. why is everyone talking about the box and not the paperclips? the twisty sculptures you can make, the bendy whirly gigs...the endless hours of stimming. wtf?????? edited: nevermind, i watched for the 5 time and i missed the part about the box. yup. boxes. so many boxes. you never know what you'll need them for! lol

i wish you could see my face. SIR, you CAN NOT tell me there's a box of paperclips next to me. are you kidding?

If you have extreme trauma EMDR therapy is lifechanging. Heavy recommend.

Ive done this and find i get weirdly aware of what im doing and usually kills the fun 😅

i didn't know there was exercises like these but when i lay in bed i have one hand under my chin and the other hugging me (near my armpit) and i think it has a similar effect. thanks for sharing

lol don’t tell me what to do!! So true!

Nonbinary AFAB with AuDHD and I definitely felt more of this before realizing I was nonbinary and starting to socially and medically transition and now I feel it less but in a weird way where I feel a bit lost like I want to still have all of those connections (I'm polyamorous) but don't have the spoons anymore 🤷 idk brains are weird lol

I went 35 years being treated for depression and having the medications not work. Turned out I had ADHD and I was depressed because i constantly felt like my brain wasnt working right. It took one therapist that played video games and talk to me about video games... and all of my interests and dietary preferences that opened the possibility of me having adhd. (I didnt believe it was real prior) ended up using my medical insurance to get fully tested and get on proper medication. I havent had a single suicidal thought in over 5 years, while before the diagnosis, I thought about it almost weekly.

I’m staying right here on the couch because a) I’m legitimately exhausted after my dysfunctional 30+ year marriage, b) because you told me to ‘just try this one thing’. ADHD defiance + post menopause = 🤷‍♀️😁

i do this in the morning, i figured it out in college. if i have nothing to do ill wake up early for no reason so i tell myself i have work and i have to get up, and i fall back asleep. if i have work, i tell myself i have the day off and have the day to sleep in, and then i get antsy and get up. although if i abuse this trick too much I think the whole thing would fall apart. i typically cannot trick myself into doing stuff

Damn that worked

And the diagnosis comes when i forget the box

Homeostasis?..... Never heard of her. Is she Greek? 😅 Jokes aside, thanks for the techniques. Sometimes you have to do something a LOT, or just have it in your back pocket as a future option, for it to work.

OMG... I love a great storage box 📦 😂

Lol, I had to force myself not to get up and do sth else 😂 But I really need to rest a bit right now.

That will work I guess. I made myself have very much fun when I was struggling to get any when I was having relationships. If you know what I mean. I struggled to reach the mountain top, but then, I forbade myself to reach it and there I went, up into the sky.😊😊😊

"How dare you good sir, you don't control me! I will stand up and do something" ...listens to rest of video "Well shi..."

Those are good! The hug one , i wanted to rock in it. Don't know why, I don't normally rock.

I have many boxes too 😅

It worked 😂

I always notice the box of paper clips

😢 ah it works, ew. I better not tell myself what to do either 😂

Nope. My ADHD went “Yippie! More dopamine!” and continued scrolling. Probs only works for those with PDA.

I hate you in the nicest way possible. My goodness am I being called out on my defiance. Well this last reel I watched was a good one at least. 😅😂

I jumped up 😂 YOU CANT MAKE ME MAKE ME DO ANYTHING 🙈

😂😂😂😂

Holy hell! I'm even a goody Two-Shoes! I didn't think I was define but this immediately made me uncomfortable to scroll to the next video!

Epic " im suppose to scroll on my phone . " 🤔😲🙊 1st time hearing of this..

This was my first real laugh out loud in about 6 weeks ❤ thanks so much I only got tested for ADHD once and they said I don't have it I'm just depressed. I hate them and theyre wrong but theres only one place to get tested in my city so im gonna chill undiagnosed, at 27 still living with my parents. Yup

I dont even need to try this, I use reverse psychology on myself all the time is wild how often it works 😂 I will often in the morning go "right today I'm not going to do the dishes and I'm not going to clean the floors and I'm not going to..." and it almost always works.

Neurodivergence isnt limited to ADHD and autism. OCD brains are, also. And we have the opposite problem... cant do the socializing because something needs attended to or THE WORLD MAY END. Everyone is struggling to convince themselves to do things they dont want to do. The idea that some people just have more willpower toward dicipline is entirely bogus.

Hahaha nice try!…… 10 seconds later and now I do not want to scroll on my phone! You got me! That was good! 👍

The problem is doing the thing that i do not want to do. The thing that stresses me out. All day long i can do the things i want to do. If i order myself to pay a video game, I'm going to enjoy playing. Ive no problem making myself lol it's the thing i actually want to do. I'm not defiant when it comes to doing enjoyable things. Only when it's stressful or when another person is forcing me to do something i don't want to do

Interesting. I'll try it

What the How Hm. I havent decorated the boxes yet because that will collapse the ADHD waveform.

My RSD would never allow me to touch someone's things without them explicitly telling me I can. I got yelled at too much as a kid for that. I wouldn't have even understood what you said because my mind would have been thinking about other things. The Babel fish in my brain would have gone offline.

Google tells us we have cancer, Tiktoks tell us we have adhd. 😂

Thank you. This made me think

I just made plans for some boxes yesterday. Don’t know if they will ever happen but I have plans( and an adhd diagnosis).

Amazon boxes 📦 are literally everything and everywhere these days 🎉

On no!!! Suddenly itchy and uncomfortable

It's all pressure. The 'okay so don't go for a pee then' is the only way I can get up sometimes. 'don't get out the car' is the only way my boyfriend can get me out the car sometimes when I get stuck. I'm pretty sure that PDA isn't just an autism thing. I have lots of friends who have ADHD and no autism and they definitely have PDA. NT people don't understand that it's normal to avoid things we don't want to do, we all avoid laundry, work, getting up early unless it's sunny, homework etc. But ND people can't do something simply BECAUSE they actually WANT to. This applies to leisure activities and sometimes even peeing or physically stepping across thresholds of rooms. It sucks. Especially when you don't understand what is happening to you.

I have two small tin boxes I wanted to make clay landscapes inside of. One is a lemon mint and I want to make a lemon orchard inside. One is Scrute Beets candy's and I want to make Schrute Farms inside it. I am so seen.

I'd need to be assured that the papers are for me, and I'm still not sure that I would do what I want with them. There's been too many decades of training myself to behaving externally to social expectations.

I was diagnosed by the top ADHD researcher/doctor in my country after a single session. Of course I had filled out the questionnaire, but it was after I broke off a part of his desk while we were talking that he burst out laughing and diagnosed me. He did an EKG and got me on methylphenidate the same day!

That’s what I usually do when I really want to do smth and I’m not already freaking out about it. Like right now I had to be at 9:30 at the painting course cause a model poses today, but I went to sleep at 5 a.m. and woke up 2 hours already late and now there’s just 1 last hour I can get to but I have to take care of the cats and also eat, take out the trash and get dressed, the last 2 in reverse. Plus, I have a splitting headache . I don’t think I can make it. I’ll try not to bother going, maybe I can get there in the last 5 minutes😅 I honestly am so tired and stressed right now I don’t know what I’m doing. And my folk are coming home today, my mother doesn’t understand my struggles, she’ll definitely yell at me for not keeping the house clean and tidy, plus my dad like to stir up conflict and watch from the sidelines, he will definitely say smth to piss either me or my mom off, just to set her upon me. And my colleagues and teacher definitely think I’m lazy too. Why can’t I find people that get me or at least try to and give me an actual break. I really started this year in a crappy way, I just try to be enthusiastic and try to change my view on life, but I feel like the world is against me.😢

One day I'm gonna need a box and I'll be damned if I meet that day ill prepared

I can honestly say I can make a really great dinosaur noise… and I also have adhd. This is great! 😂😂😂
