Hey everyone, Im back! Hope you missed me. Whats your most common, impulsive behavior?
Speaking before thinking :(
thinking too much about what others think and not paying attention
Difficult To find focus and konzentration
Being up at 3 because couldn’t stop thinking, deciding I’m hungry, and making myself a sandwich.
weed and gambling :')
- realise that impulsive action is not based on logic but on emotion and need to be managed
- identify positive and negative consequences
- rank behaviours to see which one to work on first
- practice mindfulness to control the thought
- make it harder - set up environment in a way that hinder
- it's ok to give up once a while
give up, the words of my life...
I give in to my impulsiveness all the time. I don't think I would get much done if I didn't. I have been clean and sober for a long time now. I didn't know I had adhd when I was a addict. I just knew I found it almost impossible to delay gratification. I might impulsively eat junk food but I will also impulsively take vitamins, clean my house, give things away, hug and kiss loved ones, make a cake, do some art, dance to music. Be careful not to dislike yourself. appreciate the good things about adhd. think how boring life would be if we carefully weighed up the pros and cons before every decision. there are positive things about 'just do it'. obviously for a child it can be dangerous. but you are an adult now. you are not going to do stupid things that could hurt you or others anymore.
LOL, "...your an adult now and are not going to do stupid things..." I and a number of other friends missed that memo - luckily we wised up mostly when the kids arrived 😜 but a few things took us a while longer to figure out.
I have a full time office job and the hardest for me is health and fitness. Im just so exhausted after work, i cant do anything else, not even things i find fun.
Yeah. I needed this. It's 2 a.m., I just finished eating most of a big bag of chips and I still haven't finished a task that should have taken about an hour. I started it the first time about five hours ago.
Also, a couple years ago I bought a cowhide. I'm sure I had my reasons but I don't remember what they were. All I know is that it was 3 a.m., and I was stuck in the hospital at the beginning of COVID and in isolation.
With my impulsive knick knacks shopping habbit i dont have online payment services, and i only fill my atm with a very limited amount of money so i only shop for the essentials. Its crazy everyone says, but it works quite well for me, so yeah.
I laughed literally seconds in because this is LITERALLY me.
Yeah, who knows what balance looks like.
Same 😭😭😭
YES ONLY HAVE HEALTHY FOODS AROUND
same
Thank you.
Emotional regulation is key and adding atomic healthy positive habits vs. old patterns of destructive, impulsive behaviour.
Wow I’m so excited about your videos and to get a hold of my life having ADHD. Full-time Mama five, full-time worker from home, full-time wife, and full-time maid of all this chaotic family. I have to have these tips and tricks that you’re providing. Thank you so much!
Spontaneous and impulsive like jumping into a duck pond halfway thru a conversation because you felt like it, gets out of the pond dripping and wandering why the hell did i do that while everyone else is just amazed and laughing, still it got me a free drink out of sympathy lol
Googling something because it bugs me that I don't know. Name of actor, facts, etc. sometimes leads to doom scrolling, but I am usually asked for tips and advice because of my diverse knowledge.
Needing to walk (new one, used to be going to the shop for food) - I've gotten into a better shape, but walk 4 hours a day. But I'll be doing DofE for work.
Impulse buying, getting things for a new hobby or business idea. Spent a lot of money I didn't have. I'm now teaching a lot of the hobbies in work. Am looking at photography on the side for some extra money.
0:19 Wasn’t expecting Kyle here 😂
thanks man i needed this my parents don’t belive me that i have adhd even though all the articles i read said it’s good. i have been wanting to get my life back i am so happy i will cry you are so underrated may god bless you
Depending on where you live and how old you are, you’re allowed to go to your doctor and tell them about your worries of adhd.
Thank you so much , the last part really made me look at things differently. It’s relieving knowing that i am unable to control it 24/7 7 days a week, because that’s all I’ve been trying to do 😊
I live with my son and we, along with his brother and dad have adhd…it’s a pain
د.محمد العفيفي من مصر يعالج المشكلة من الجذور، أبحثي عنه في قوقل ثم تواصلي معه،ممتاز جداً ،يعالج بدون أدوية كيميائية.
Thanks for the grreat info ..
Awesome video. Good luck
Thanks for the video!
I recently started a new education in IT, but maaaaaaan my memory has gotten so bad... I discovered ADHD at 34, and I have no idea how much of my brain power/memory, I can get back...
Really wish I could get that magic mind in Europe :D
I’m still not completely convinced I hav adhd havnt went for diagnoses yet. Still telling myself I’m just lazy and adhd is my excuse😂. even tho I kno I’m weird and different it HAS TO BE ADHD. Well thanks anyway for the vids man I feel like u understand lol
Your kitchen looks so clean and simple and relaxing... do you hide everything or keep it put away purposely?
Haha I make sure to clean up before recording ;)
Hi I haven’t yet gotten a diagnosis for ADHD but in the FSIQ test my tester said to me that I have symptoms of ADHD and/or autism.. all I need to do now is do the assessments to see if I really do have either of them but I feel like all my life people have been saying “you have ADHD” “do you have ADHD?” “You act like you have ADHD” “you’re too intense!” Etc but even my psychologists have been saying “you seem to have symptoms of attention deficit” at this point I’m pretty sure I have ADHD.. or ADD.. I’m not too sure on the specifics..
Then go get diagnosis
@@soirema I just did, I got diagnosed on September the 7th, I think. I got diagnosed with autism level 2 and co morbid ADHD. Co morbid means that the condition exists despite the other condition, autism. I think that’s what it means.
I like to "window shop" online. Just add stuff in a wishlist, thinking I'll get to it some time, and then i forget about it. It gives me a satisfying feeling somehow.
i have a crush and he often talks to me and yea i tell my bestfriend abt my feeling and she really supports me and give me real good advices on getting closer to him
im trying to hold my confession to him, she also tells me that i need to wait 1 year longer to confess to him cuz we're not that close yet
yesterday i couldnt hold my impulsivity and went confessing to my crush's female friend.
yea, it wasnt the plan, and i think it kinda ruined something.
my bestfriend now is a bit mad abt it lol(but guys, we're good, it's just that i tell the wrong person, my crush's female friend, and in the wrong time)
and after that i just cant stop blaming myself(but not really destroying my esteem)
i also sometimes cannot think clearly and i just hate it
Better he knows and you don't waste a year wondering. Sometimes impulsivity is good it might save you time. 💜
I am an impulsive shopper..convincing myself I need items that I don't.
sounds crazy but its like teaching people in general how to have a hygienic life
Most days recently, it's been binging UA-cam videos about how to manage my ADHD, and sweets before bed... Thank you for saving me a couple hours of sleep (I have to be up again in 5 hours for work) and the other half of my bag of marshmallows (I've said "last one" since way too many marshmallows ago).
you're not solving the problem, you're just running from the consequences
Who else is here with playback speed on 2.0 Haha love it.
Yup
Veganism helped with my food impulses. I now consider the food i eat at all times. 85lb lost.
Have you tried Mind Lab Pro brain supplements?
I am only ever going to do UA-cam as my social media. I have been watching your channel for about a month now and really like it. I do not need to be drawn to doom scrolling on tictoc. Sorry
this was literally me yesterday 😭
Watching this at 2am
Hello, do you take stimulant pills ? 🤔
lol 😂😂😂 I love this it’s so true
Why are you spying on me 😂 😅
Nice
Just sent you an email saying: Thank you!
Looking forward to your reply 🙏🏼
I like this video. One thing tho. Honestly, that flamingo guitar is so distracting for me lol. Is so rather just hear you talk 😆 maybe that’s just me but it gives me anxiety.
It’s my life 😂😢
wat da tiktok link
Or is impulsivity jumping on the school table attatching a bunsen burner hose to the water tap and spraying your teacher in the face with water because she was too boring lol
Your videos make me think I have adhd but I don’t know. Good video though
Can't listen 🎵🎶 , can't hear you. My mind is focusing on that repeating sound
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
My way to combat impulsivity: Keto OMAD! Keeps my insulin levels stable all day. And after my one big keto meal around 9pm, there's no screen time until bedtime. If OMAD is too hard, just drink Bulletproof Coffee for breakfast (coffee with butter and coconut oil. Mix it in a shaker or blender and it tastes amazing). But keep the almost 0 carbs going until dinner. Just keep in mind that with just OneMealADay for dinner, the ADHD meds might be stronger and work for a shorter time. Everyone has to test and adjust for themselves.
Lost me at "make a list"
