Tears in my eyes. This is so relatable. I became a nanny as I felt that I could help those who are more sensitive and more “difficult” to understand (because people lack knowledge), it was in training to be a Montessori teacher and focusing on a more neuroscience based approach that I finally understood that I too belong to the category of autism and adhd. I suffered, trying, for about 30 years before I understood why I am the way I am. A beautiful unorchestrated mess ✨ And I wouldn’t have it any other way. Sadly the world judges us for being different and while we make accommodations for them all day every day - others in the world do not. Here’s hope to a more inclusive and caring future 💞
Thanks so much for watching and sharing, seriously. This means so much to me and everything you're speaking on is so important. A beautiful unorchestrated mess!
Beautiful! Criminally underrated. Perfectly captures the whole experience. From stress to imposter syndrome, to oversharing and having to constantly explain ourselves to the stereotypes that follow us all our lives. So well done! ❤
@@luftigfrei you nailed it. Thanks so much for watching. A lot of love, care, introspection, research, and collaboration made this film possible. So happy you enjoyed it!! 💚
😊 Very nicely done Sam - from start to finish! I was immediately captivated by the logistical hurdles, emotional landscape, and tension that felt very real to me as one with ADHD. You also did a nice job presenting the additional barriers of stigma, misconceptions, and misunderstandings of ADHD.
Thank you so much, Frets! So happy to you related to it and enjoyed the film. A lot of heart when into making this film by the team, so we really appreciate it. Keep an eye out for the next version… :)
And that’s precisely the problem, isn’t it? We learn that we can push the boundary and push the boundary and push the boundary… until finally the boundaries break over and over and over again. True story: I never used to be late anywhere until Waze and the like. This is because I always had to plan to be at least half an hour early everywhere because I couldn’t estimate travel times AT ALL. Now that I have apps that estimate travel times, I mess up all the other time estimations and am late almost all the time 😭
@@karadecker8764 I was just thinking about this the other day. I usually have my phone open and navigating to my destination on Google maps while I'm getting ready, so I see what time I'll be arriving as the clock ticks. Problem is, I cannot grasp the amount of time it will take me to get my bag, shoes, get to my car, and then park and walk to the location once I get there, which can be easily an extra 5 to 20 minutes. SMH!!!
@@sluhbrek Exactly! I wonder if I were to stop using navigation apps to plan and just go back to trying to always be there way early and read or something for 15-30 minutes would at least not make me late. Plus, I’d get back into reading again! (Or be on the phone all the time still but at least not late 😏) But these are the things that are important to mention when being late Dx’d. “No, I wasn’t always late as a child because I had STRATEGIES and was ALWAYS WAY EARLY because I have NO SENSE OF TIME 😁🥹🙈”
But I would not recommend driving in the rain without windshield wipers. Not when snowing either. And definitely not on the highway. But if you really have to, it helps to moove your head from side to side and up and down, then you actually can see where the road is, now and then.
I have never felt so seen or represented in a movie ever. Thank you for your amazing work.
@@samanthacampbell375 thanks, fellow Samantha. This means more than you know. Hopefully more where this comes from 💥
This is criminally underrated. Is this inspired by your experiences?
It is. Though I didn't know I had ADHD until 1 year after we wrapped shooting the film...🫠 next up is the series version.
@@sluhbrek Wow, that's quite the incredible coincidence! I'm suspecting, myself.

You can go real far after the gas icon blinks. It's all about experience.
