sorry the algorithm sucks, literally all the youtubers I follow are finding it harder and harder, so its not just you great video btw, sending it to friends who might enjoy it
This makes all those times I need to distract half my brain to study or struggle to read (and reread and reread and...) make SO much more sense! 😅 Thank you! 😁
this video made me feel so validated for having so many different systems for jotting things down and for having so many distracted ideas that are not that relevant. tysm for making this!!
When you said "milky way" not only did I think of stars, and a candy bar, but every song I know that has the phrase milky way in it, as well as the bassist from My Chemical Romance because his name is Mikey Way... yeah.
Was never diagnosed but I grew up extremely creative -- it was hard to do anything unless it was extremely amazing. It literally hurted to do mediocre things. That's why my comics and drawings were so successful.
“Remember: stay weird”? Uh, like I could ever forget and like I have a choice. More accurate: “You may choose to recall that you are atypical in certain regards and celebrate that fact. If you’re feeling bad about being ‘weird’, you can always…”.
Lol Milky Way made me think about the role of tricksters in folklore. In grade school we had a field trip to the planetarium and they shared a story about Coyote trying to bring a sack of stars to a place where they were being distributed, but he wound up dragging it and causing a little hole, and that's where the Milky Way came from
That is so helpfull for me. 🙏🏻 That is so ME! 🙄 I had a bournout and now it is hart to be motivated or Creative. I Love to be Creative! When i Start the idea i don't know how to do it. I get stressed. I can't focus. 🙃 But Today i give me a break. I Let it flow and find you. I will remember you Next Time i start something new. 🤗 Here 🌹 A Flower for a Flower. Mutch love to all. 🙏🏻❤🙌🏻
Autistic ADHDer chiming in here - my board looked like the right board. However, if the question had at first been "what is the Milky Way" rather than just "Milky Way", that would have made my answers a lot more specific and useful! I find that the way the question is asked and how specific it is can really assist in me finding the right information. Not sure if that applies to people with only ADHD though, I would be interested to know!
I was always told I was having a 'grasshopper moment', jumping from thoughts that seemingly have no relation to anyone but me. Then I'd have to spend the next half hour explaining to teachers/parents/friends/partners how I got to that point 😅 Thank you for your videos. It's great to feel seen and help understand the 'why' a bit better ( ^◡^)
i was struggling with motivation and came across your video from 3y ago, you helped me so much! I'm so glad you're still making videos, i hope you get the attention you deserve soon!
I used to have the most insane level of associative thoughts. Like this video to a tee. Then I started taking SSRI’s and other meds and they’ve tamed down a bit more, but damn I do kind of miss them.
Yeah, I'm not sure how I would feel if the frequency of my random ideas and associative thoughts just went down! Yeah, it may be easier to think and focus, but my random thoughts are what makes it bearable living in here! (in here = my brain)
@@WhatintheADHD yeah absolutely- especially as the world atrocities continue to be livestreamed on social media for all of us to see and we out here just trying to figure out how to make enough money to pay rent then also help
As a manager this works for me. I come up with ideas and let my staff work on them. Write them all on a board and let them choose and delegate between them.
Only having the criterion 'milky way associations' and then judging the narrow one that only has astronomy, as better, fails if an additional, better defined criteria were created. It would show that broader associations are more affective and ready to serve an undefined range of unknowns, like narrowing the associations to either food stuffs. or astronomy. I'm ADHD too, so is my partner. I liked the video.
This particular style of add/adhd is extroverted intuition known as transcontextual intuition for Myers-Briggs Personality Types enfp and entp usually scoring in big 5 as open to experience experience, most creative form of adhd
Sadly, Link between ADHD and creativity is not that supported by science litterature. There is a WINDOW of ADHD symptoms that helps in creative thinking tasks. Too much symptoms, going into the pathological (and diagnosed) and we don't see this trend anymore. Creativity is highly linked however with IQ, general inteligence or education - Creativity and intelligence can be improved, it is not a fixed amount. i have seen that having a short-term reward helps but it might be due to motivation and ADHD having trouble with delayed consequences and rewards. hope this helps, cheers.

Setting a time limit for thinking up solutions!? Will be doing that for all the reasons you talk about - especially the over thinking part:)
My son and I actually did this the other day and it was SUPER helpful!!

Happy to see you are still presenting the most relevant I formation regarding ADHD… soooo good, thank you!

very well done
Thank you!
Amazing vid
My problem is that a lot of my ideas are hard to put in words, at least for me.
My mind depicted in this video 😂😅
💀💀💀
My board got all the way to Julia Stiles and Save the Last Dance...
🤯 Yes 3647 times how did you know?
😂😂 lucky guess!
My milkshake song is by kelis not missy. Just thought I’d let you know that oh yea I am adhd 🤣😂🤣🤣😂
WAIT REALLY HOW DID I MISS THAT 😂😂😂
Watching your video in 2× ..😂
I always do that 💀
I dont have ADHD and I have many ideas, and I actually work on them.
smh at you making us comment you know that's Kelis lyrics and not missy. I couldn't stand for such misinformation lol
I wonder if this is one reason people don't like me.
:( What makes you say that?
