Listening to the sensory things with headphones really is quite accurate to how I experience them (as someone with diagnosed adhd) I usuallly don’t know how to put the sensory overloads into words, but this basically described them perfectly The “I don’t know” at the end was so real, it sent me to tears as that in the last three years has been the most said sentence by me, I don’t know how to put into words how I feel (again ; see above) I feel like my medications aren’t helping at all, first I started on medikinet at 15mg then to 20mg then to concerta at 17mg then to 28mg, it feels like nothing is happening

2:08 the music in his head is so like me

I want people to think I'm not a bad person hit hard to me

People like myself with unfortunately what I call real ADHD because of all the awful private places giving ADHD diagnosis. My life is hell with ADHD it's not a bloody superpower I find that so offensive when people say that. I went 35 years undiagnosed with clear and obvious traits and behaviours misdiagnosisd. The misunderstanding regarding severe ADHD is awful. I have just won a huge case at work regarding disability. I have decided from now on I will do what I want to do and ignore everyone who says things like you alone can't change the world. If I managed to help one person with ADHD I see this as a success.

The testing part is a bit exaggerate but maybe in a film it just need to be exaggerate. I'm a ADHDer too, my experience is that I can finish the paper but I just cannot hold my thoughts

My son has ADHD and Autism. This is him to a T. He is misunderstood by a lot of people, including family members. I’ll be sharing this video with them.

Everything showed in this video resonates with me .I had been in every situation showed in this video . Sometime it’s hard just to exits .

Story of my life and soon reason of my death

this is so well made I love it and it represents adhd so good 😍

9:19 to 10:29 just broke me completely. Im 31 now, diagnosed with depression and anxiety which derived from the ADHD. That struggle to ask for help because deep inside I truly dont believe I can solve it. Its a problem that people will walk over you. screaming for help then realize you dont know what you want... I just want to be free

The post it shot is so powerful. I got diagnosed of combined adhd at 34 even though I always knew that there is something inherently different about me 😔

This one got to me

It’s hellish to live with because when you have the burden of ADHD you think, sense, hear and feel…TOO MUCH! Occasionally though, especially when we’re interested in something (and I don’t mean algebra lessons) the work you can do in hyper-focus is truly incredible. It’s almost like magic! Yes…really. I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. Occasionally you’ll meet people who can understand you but it’s the hand your dealt.

Can I share this film on FB page

Restless in the classroom

Yep. Totally misunderstood and used as an excuse for people who don't feel. ADHD people do feel.

Way tooooooo loooooooong. An ADHD film that's eight times longer than I can concentrate on to watch. 🤔🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️ Two minutes would have done it; five would have been pushing the boundaries of watchability.

Freshman year 1973 was just like this.

Undiagnosed ADHD is the worst. In the UK do you have to wait for 2 years if you don't pay you privately the NHS make you wait for 2 years to go through the pain and the torture, and everyone thinks it's minor, It's not, It's a serious matter. So many people go through their lives not even knowing that they have ADHD and they fail and hit a brick wall It's a very serious matter. I personally suffer with it and I've dealt with the brick wall surrounding my every thought, there are speed jumps, in fact hurdles, to my hopes and my dreams... It can be waking nightmare

🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝

I needed to pause the film 5 times to do other things...

I have had a panic and anxiety attack before mulipule actually bc i get so oversrimulated and it gets loud and school i cant it kills me to be at school someimes i just wanna die and not exist anymore bc it gets so bad

I can't even watch this bc there's no subtitles 😭

It's like you'll never gonna understand yourself. You always feel like you've let yourself down. And The thing that hurts the most is that you can't tell anyone about it, bc they will think that you are just making excuses.

..eleven months ago" VERY CLEAR SHORT VIDEO About HDHD"

This is EXACTLY what it feels like to have ADHD! - I should know. I found this interesting in that it has lead me to better understand myself.

Brilliantly done, and so familiar. It's great that people ask what you need, if only we knew the answer!

She should have homeschooled him. The worst thing about ADD is that you feel as though you are crazy and stupid and that you are the only one. When other kids tell you that you are ugly, you believe them. I am 61 but was not diagnosed until I was in my 40s. I have always had difficulty remembering things that I want to remember. I fear failure. Ironically I am a paraprofessional working with students who have learning disabilities, ADHD, and ASD. I am not very academic, but I want these kids to know that they are not alone, that they can learn but have to do it their own way, and that some things are tendencies, not something to give up on. ADHD is developmental meaning that even though you have it for life, you can learn coping strategies.

i have ADHD wnd this was one of the most accurate depictions ive seen.

What makes it very difficult is we look like a normal person with normal neurological development. So people will easily judge you from the outside and make quick assumptions. At 55, I'm really trying, but still struggling.

If you're able to watch this whole movie without skipping and getting distracted, it's safe to say you don't have any ADHD...

When he said “i want people to think that im not a bad person” it really hit me deep

Autism can feel like this sometimes like my mind replays things like sougs and quotes from tv shows

been watching for 5 minutes, and i found it so slow paced and boring... its about adhd but probably not made for adhd. i can relate to jack though!

this is, pretty accurate i love this film and i realte to it partially becuase i never really had a proper diagnosis the closet ive gotten was a sensory or an asperger, i was close to an ADHD diagnosis but i couldnt be placed on the spectrum. i wish people could understand this is how i feel on a daily basis sometimes you did a great job man

Bravo. This kid did such a great job. All involved nailed it so well. It's hard enough describing It to people, let alone making a movie about it. I cried along with Jack. I really felt his pain b/c I have been there.

:(

FUCK! Last minute got me, because I sat there by myself, crying like that not knowing, what to do for 40 years!!! Feel9ng noone would understand. But since diagnosed, embracing the adhd and a support system now this Depression, Anxiety and Desperation are almost gone. Keep on fellows. You can live a happy life, even though on some point it doesn't look like it. It didn't for me all my life until I learned to love myself for who I am! ❤ love for all!

I think this shows some of the aspects of ADHD quite accurately - focusing on how it can impact our self esteem and lead to self loathing. The 'I don't know' is spot on! In those intense moments there's so much information converging, and so much raw emotion, and so much fear of how the other person will judge us, it's so hard to put anything into words. It's too slow moving for me as someone with ADHD to sustain attention through the film though, ironically! I had to start drumming furiously to try to keep watching to the end. More aspects of the condition could have been interwoven if it was a bit faster pace, or maybe incorporated into the audio - I dunno maybe I'm a bit more hyperactive than this lad. Tho there is that thing where we also can sit there feeling unable to do anything for ages also, which I just can't remember the name for right now 🙈 hello again frustration and self hatred 😅 it'll come back to me when I'm in the middle of something else and I'll blurt it out randomly 😂 I'm lucky, I've shaped my life to suit my brain, and I somehow did ok at school, but I know others that really couldn't do school work. Socially, that's a different story. I still get dark thoughts though, when I've disappointed someone or messed up, and they struggle to see that it wasn't intentional.

Beautiful and elegantly told. Brought back hard memories for me.

Its the worst the first time someone asked me what i wanted out of the sessions and stuff i was on the verge of tears i was so stressed out and i couldnt go anywere. I feel like i cant do anything sometimes and everyone think i just give excuses but i dont and i dont know what i want sometimes i just wanna scream.

I want people see me as normal but I don’t want to be normal.

At 56 learnt Not to cry, but be stoic, e a gregarious loner, contempt from experiences at school, certain teachers you never forget then the condenscending comments were worse than the bullying.

This video isn’t really “a look inside the mind of an ADHDer” but it’s more, this is what parent, a friend or sibling etc, who is neurotypical can see and understand. I say this because this video only grasps about 5% of what we truly go though, there is a lot missing here and I worry about the misconception it could spread. If you know someone and you observe they have similar behaviour to the gentleman in the video, they may indeed have ADHD but note, this video doesn’t encompass the internal struggles that aren’t shown in this video. This is very surface, maybe just a quick Google even. It’s lovely to see someone trying to depict ADHD though, it isn’t behavioural, it’s neurological. We aren’t just naughty kids, our brains function different to the rest of society and every day is a challenge.

Great actor. Brough out so many feelings 😪 😢

This is sad

Great video! What do you think of collaborating with us? We are producing a video and photo editing plugin called Dehancer. If you are interested, how could we get in touch?

Pretty accurate, adhd sucks, but can be quite a gift. I have brutal adhd, had a terrible stutter growing up, was on concerta from age 9 till I was 17 right before I took my SAT which didn’t help at all. Took me 5 years after getting off meds to fully understand how to control it, but once you learn to make those racing thoughts go into a direction that you choose, it can really give you and advantage. High school is the hardest, cuz you’re learning about shit you don’t care about and it makes it even harder. But in college when you’re studying stuff you like, or doing things you like, the focus you will achieve is so insane. Once you get better at it, you can start to translate this hyper focus into things you don’t particularly enjoy. adhd sucks, but it’s controllable. Once you control it, it’s a gift. Took me 22 years to learn how to do that, and I’m still learning now at age 24, but it’s forsure possible, just takes effort and intention

My gosh this was crazy

It's awful and nobody cares nobody gives a shit and they'll NEVER understand whether it's adhd or any other mental illness or learning disorder
