    I wasted my 28 years of life to understand that I have ADHD. My parents made it more worse. Some hacks that helps :- 1. Be aware of what ADHD does to you and your daily routine which can help you find ways to dodge it. 2. Teach your friends the symptoms of ADHD so they can be supportive and get you. 4. Reward yourself for minor things. 5. Speaking clock app which you can set from (1min - an hour) 6. Set alarm for each task and reminder. 7. If you are going out, Keep minor things ready and look test done last evening (not night because it will take you time) 8. Leave home half an hour ago. 9. While travelling, start planning a month ago. 10. Spending money is easy so have a friend with you who can stop you from impulse shopping. 11. While studying, creative chart, flowcharts, markers and again (Time Beep App) will help. 12. Auditory conversation never works, so ask your friend to talk to you using hand movement, sensory touch or even request them to repeat again. 13. YOGA in morning and breathing exercise at night calms down your brain. 14. Get a Fidget spinner or ball. 15. Pray, Praying and Speaking to God makes you talk to yourself. 16. And the last, If you reach till here, I am proud of you and I love you. ❤ 17. Love yourself, nobody is perfect, You have to be Kind with yourself, Love and accept yourself. If you don't why will people do? You are the best, funny, helpful, empathetic, harmless and kind. God loves you.❤ All the best.❤

    The problem is I know that I’m wasting time, but I’m wasting time trying to comfort myself so I forget about all the other things waiting for me in my life. I wish I wasn’t like this.

    Finding old uncompleted stickies and lists hurt. Just like all the journals I have with one entry in them... Maybe two or three with two or three entries. One I've had for a decade, years between entries. Maybe this time will be different. I hope this time will be different. I hope I don't lose hope.

    Psilocybin mushrooms have certainly had a beneficial effect on my mental health. They've been quite effective for me in managing my anxiety and depression.

      Yeah. More people should try psychedelics. Not only in a medical environment because in some countries they are illegal. But with the right set and setting they can do wonders.

    the sticky notes are so real, i put them up to remind myself or start things and then forget about the sticky notes in the first place, and then i can't even explain it to my teachers because how could you forget something like that? it's so frustrating

    This hurts to watch. This is how I felt in high school and college - although college was worse, because i didn't have my mom making sure i got out of bed and did my homework. The exhaustion without knowing why, the "why cant you just...?" and "if only you learned your lesson" really hit home

    The school issue was with me and I suffered my whole school life I had no friends non of my classmates invited me in their playings, I was the kindest in my class always thought about my teachers and respected them along with the girls, but only due to my social anxiety issue I never talked to them, I wanted to but I had the fear to talk even though I didn't do anything bad but still the thought always haunted my mind that my words might hurt the other person's feelings (and I always felt out of words) I will be joining college this year And this problem is still with me 😞😞 and I am scared that I will lose my college life too I have friends now but I can't be free with them bcz the thought and feeling that I might hurt the other person's feelings still remain...

    Breathing methods like wim hof and 478 help significantly, additionally mediation makes a huge impact at least for better focus and concentration. Having extremely severe adhd sucks, I am a potato without medication

    I've literally been thinking for 2 years that I might have ADHD. In 2023 (12 years old) I was researching everything about ADHD. I get distracted, I do poorly, I don't understand anything in class even though I try to pay attention, my schoolwork gets mixed up, I fall behind, I hardly understand anything in group work, I forget everything I learn, WHY ARE YOU JUST NOT CONCENTRATING? One day my mom was talking to me and she told my dad that she saw on my cell phone that I researched about ADHD and they told me that "just because you're distracted doesn't mean you have a disorder. Besides, it's also because of age." Yeah. Obviously. Age, right? I didn't argue with them. I don't like to argue. I've had this problem for 2 years and they still haven't taken me to the doctor to be sure. I live with the weight of not knowing what my problem is... no, yes I know. I just need to be sure. I just need time. I'm 14 now, and I'm hoping that 2025 will be better

    Once I closed this video, I opened my texts to be asked how much I'd progressed with my work. Nothing. But I couldn't say that. I just find myself ignoring it for eternity because it's simply too painful to face. It feels terrible that every day of my life is captured in these 6 minutes, and there really isn't much more to it.

    im not someone diagnosied with adhd but this video hit such a sensitive spot in me that made me cry. My friend suggested me to go to the doctors to get a diagnose but its not that easy...i might also just overthink it and this is normal, right? right?

    I feel this is relatable to me, but I don't know if I have ADHD or not, I try to concentrate in class, trying to listen to the teacher but I immediately forget what he/she said, I try to read the things I need to study, but I always forget the first sentence, even if it's just a few words. It's even harder to not be stressed by assignments, I feel like even if there are just 2/3 assignments it feels like I have to do more and more things.

    MAn i really loved this vid until it gets to a pharma pill ad :D Ritalin und other Pharmas just make u numb. The problems are not gone, they are just overshadowed from nothingness to be able to fit in this unlogically world we live in. I think ritalin just slows one down so society can handel u. I am highly hyperactive. I tried Ritalin for a while, after beeing 30 years untreated. It was pure inner terror for me. The need to move was still there, but i wasn't moving anymore. Result was that i unconsciously pressed my jaw together which resulted in heavy pain pain after a few hours. Yeah i was abel to Focus one one thing better, but it is also limiting urself cause all other good 10 ideas that plop up every now and then are also overshadowed buy nothingness. but u cann feel that something want to breaks out if ur on thes drugs. i think thye don't make anything better, they just force the masking process and suppress the needed energy release ppl like me need. Just go into normal society as much as needed to survive, study, workout and independently build something own is the true answer, but that does not make good customers ;)

    Real, when i realized that it's easier to ask for help from teachers or friends if you don't understand something, i was baffled. It makes so much sense, and when i expressed that to my parents, they were shocked that i didn't know that before. They thought I wasn't asking for help on purpose because I just didn't want to.

    Don't take the pills. I had medikinet and ritalin as a child. The public response was like "you pathetic Smackhead" and in puberty you will f*** up everything social. Guys forget the fancy names. Its Meth. End of story. Omega 3 in salmon oil works actually quite well but your burps smell like sushi ^^ sorry

    A good medicine for ADHD is Adderall. I have been taking it for about 1 year and have seen a good change the same day. I was less fidgety, and restless. My family asked me if i was okay, I just said yeah i'm taking a new medicine. You should bring it to your physiatrist, its a really good alternative to lithium.

    For me, living with adhd feels like a constant fight against your own mind that's in flux. I feels like every minute action would take every bit of me to do, even just trying to memorize stuff for finals feels like force labour that fuels my ever growing anxiety. Speaking of which, it has gotten so bad that im gaslighting into thinking im dumber.
