I was severely traumatized years ago as a teenage, got diagnosed with ADHD. Spent my whole life fighting ADHD. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.
I love hearing great life changing stories like this. I want to become a mycologist because honestly mushrooms are the best form of medicine (most especially the psychedelic ones) There are so many people today used magic mushrooms to ween off of SSRI medication- its amazing! Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death buddy, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them
I'm so very happy for you mate, Psilocybin is absolutely amazing, the way it shows you things, the way it teaches you things. I can not believe our world and our people shows less interest about it's helpfulness to humanity. It's love. The mushrooms heals people by showing the truth, it would be so beneficial for so many people, especially politicians and the rich who have lost their way and every other persons out there.
@@junipersystem dangit i saw a notification saying you had replied with this (sometimes youtube gives me notifications saying someone has replied to a comment that ive liked/also replied to) and i got distracted and now i have to try to remember what i was going to do in the first place
Yes to everything (to an oddly high degree) except these two: 1. Being late. I tell people in my family that being on time = being late. My way of avoiding this is to give myself a 30% time buffer for everything I need to do that's important. Walking to the dentist is the most recent example: takes 20-25 minutes of walking (depending on speed) but I will leave at *latest* 30 minutes prior. How do I do that? By doing everything to prepare for leaving 5-10 minutes prior bare minimum. So I'm getting my shoes on 40 minutes prior. Where do those 10 minutes go between then and when I leave? Beats me. 2. Interrupting people because I need to get my thought out. I think talking on the forums my whole life has allowed me to be OK with not getting my thoughts across. I've posted tens of thousands of times, and not getting a single thought out isn't a big deal. Now....when I'm passionate about something, that's a different story. Even then however, I try to show signs of wanting to speak. If the other person wants to have a good conversation, they will usually pick up on it and let me talk; the struggle there is listening to them while I wait. If they simply don't catch on or don't care, I get the immediate realization that it's not important to share the thought with *them* in-particular. I usually end up losing interest in any conversation after that and stop engaging with them pretty quickly. Now, that can lead to me being selfish, and I try to keep that in mind; perhaps they genuinely just didn't pick up on queues I thought were obvious (putting my hand up slightly and starting to talk but stopping within 1 word usually.) Anyways...when there was a string of "yes, that's me" it was kinda 'funny,' because I started getting a bit emotional...followed by you talking about the emotional part. I don't get emotional often, but weird things can hit me hard. I don't really care to get diagnosed professionally, but I'm glad to know how I can start understanding myself better. Thanks.
lol same whenever i see a symptom i think "wow i think might have adhd" and then i'm like "NO WAIT I CANT PIGEONHOLE MY BRAIN IS FAKING IT WHAT IF I DONT HAVE IT"
I started this thinking "I don't have ADHD but this'll be fun" then I realized I matched with a lot of the symptoms. But I ended the video saying "that was fun but I don't have ADHD" 😂
Not me pausing the video to count the 20 different art projects I've collected and I haven't started yet, and the 10 others that are only half done. Immediately takes a left turn to the chores I've been meaning to do for at least a week and haven't gotten to despite trying
I don't comment on videos often, but I came back to this video years later and watching it again made me smile. I originally found this video when I was 18 and going through a super rough point in my life and it was through videos like this that I recognized my own ADHD and was able to get a diagnosis and treatment. I even showed your video to my parents when I told them I thought I might have ADHD. So I wanted to say THANK YOU for posting this and helping people like me to understand themselves and their brains better!
Hi! Um im 18 rn and I’ve gone through a lot this year so i was a little afraid that maybe these simptoms were actually depression or anxiety (idk if I have those but they are more likely to be caused by emotional distress), because I can’t really remember any of these when I was a child, as all I know is that I, at some point, had good grades (therefore payed attention in class ig??) and was just a little quirky and alienated in class. However all of these things described in this video REALLY resonate with the me now and even in the past few 3-4 years, as I’ve felt out of place for a while now. So I wanted to ask if this was also your situation back then or sth like that? Anyway thx 4 listening and hope ur doing amazing rn 🫶
@@kimberle2008 So agreeable. Research mode is so real for me. All of my friends rely on me to do online research for them when it comes to buying things. Ill go down into a 6+ hour rabbit hole, looking at mass reviews and youtube reviews.
Been on a waiting list to get diagnosed for around 4 years, and in this video, every question was a yes. My mom also thinks she has it as well and some people don’t understand what it is like for us, so I got told growing up: “Attention Seeking”, “YOUR OVERREACTING, STOP IT”, “DON’T SNAP AT ME”, the list could go on forever. Luckily, awareness of ADHD is spreading but still, not everybody gets it especially Boomers, Gen Z, and sometimes Millennials. But they also can have it, but they didn’t know back then, and they might still not know now. My mom got harshly punished as a child because of ADHD, so please, just spread the awareness of it. Thank you.
I'm Gen X - the one everybody forgets. When I was a kid it was called "hyperactive" and it was usually the squirrelly boy in class that was labeled "hyper". Every report card I had said I was smart but spent all day in class daydreaming, staring out the window and talking with classmates. I was always called lazy and in trouble for not studying, not cleaning my super disorganized room and being super emotional about everything. I am 57 now and always wonder how different my life might have been had I been diagnosed and treated at a young age.
Lol same, I start my assignments waay too late, then I hyperfocus and get it done in half the time it would actually take, then the next day I feel completely exhausted and terrible about it. And while I know this is not really the most efficent way of doing things, I can't do it any other way, because at the end I finish it, so this method works, right?
I don't start all my projects after the deadline but I absolutely procrastinate and start them as late as possible. I also have trouble finding the motivation to actually do stuff.
@@47ratsinahoodie the last part is accurate for me, I need to have a perfect weather and perfect mood to start a project. Otherwise I'll just procrastinate until it pressures me
This could be a complete revelation in my life. I wrote down every symptom you listed and I can say I have, or really worked hard to overcome every single one my entire life. Think it’s time to talk to someone. Thanks for putting this together.
Me: has been diagnosed years ago twice because I wasn’t sure My brain now: okay but what if you’re wrong Me, thinking about a third diagnosis test: what if I’m wrong
I’ve always been told I have ADHD by other people and I just brushed it off, afterwatching this and everything listed is basically me, I’ve now booked a GP appointment 😂 thank you sir
@@itsjustlarkspur1750 I legit didn't know not everyone can not work while the teacher is talking. Lol I will literally sit there and just yeah space out. Then the teacher will come over to me and yeah
I thought this was just me, too! Weirdly, when the teacher is talking even to other students nearby, I can't focus on my work and get agitated, almost angry, if you will, then I zone out
When your parents don’t “believe” in mental health (edit: holy shit I’ve never gotten this many likes also that’s kinda sad how many people relate to this)
Mine call me "normal" as if ppl with mental disorders aren't normal ? (Also I have depression, anxiety and ptsd so I'm not new to this...but my ex, who has adhd says I might have a 78% chance of actually have it😅)
Maddi Leigh I brought adhd up to my mom and she actually admitted that I probably have it but won’t do anything because she thinks medication will make my grades go down but she still denies that multiple school counselors and nurses have said I have anxiety and she called my panic attacks asthma and even tried to get an inhaler
Who else was doing ten things while watching this video? I've had ADHD since I was a little girl. Makes things so much harder. This is why I had such a hard time in school. All of these things he was talking about I totally have to the extreme.
This is me too I keep telling my self to go to bed at 11 and every might I end up staying up till about 5 am and sleeping in till noon cuz I diddnt sleep enough that night
"Are you easily distracted/overly emotional?" Me: Nah no way. Also me: *has a meltdown if someone asks me to do another task while I'm in the middle of a task*
K Roberts oh my life yes.... I’m working from home today and I’ve managed to bake bread, clean the house do laundry and get stuck in a UA-cam dive... have I started work yet?... no. Will I? I’m truly trying lol
I literally couldn't focus for more than 20 seconds so i just scrolled and read what each part of the vid was about and that answered each of those questions literally
me: relates to all of them also me: stop self diagnosing you're just seeking attention my family when my emotions are over the place: HoRmOnEs or they may blame it on the phone 4 month update: still chillin here listening to the same thing waiting for them to allow me to see a doctor
If hormons are the same excuse with pregnancy just say hey yup hormons must be pregnant oh im a guy well if its hormones i must prepare for the baby. Might be enough to confuse the hell out of them enough to get you checked out buahahah
Can people really just... stop thinking?? Like they don’t think about how they’re not thinking and then think about how they’re thinking about how they’re not thinking etc etc???
@@SketchUT Yeah its wierd like I can focus and unfocus. I'm doing that on accident but my brains thinking about something else. But I didn't know that you could like turn off your brain and sleep for example I'm writing this at 03:31am- I am sleep deprived and *not tired*
When I try to clear my mind it works for less than a second and I think about everything I’m not thinking about like random things like what I had for dinner a few days ago and different tv shows from when I was 5.
I am watching this video after 6-7 similar ones to motivate myself to start studying with books infront of me, thinking of a way/solution to start studying and overcome procrastination....
It makes me mad when people say that “ADHD is fake” or that “everyone has ADHD”, people don’t know how tiring, hard, and stressful it is to actually have it. People have said to me things like “just focus, sit down, or be still” LIKE BRO I PHYSICALLY CANTTTTTTT. I was diagnosed on the 8th grade and I wish more people talked about it and ways to manage it.
omg I just spent the last 1.5 hours replying to your comment, and freaking accidently DELETED IT!!!!! it was prob tldr anyway. one thing I was saying was that I can't sit still to save my life and my leg will just bounce, up and down and people will come up to me and try to hold my leg down, or tell me to stop cuz I'm driving them nuts. I HATE THAT!!
I totally agree with you. I have had ADHD since I was 3, and I couldn't even tell you how many time I was sent to the principal's office because I couldn't either focus on my work or stay in one place. As well as people who get so mad that they think I am faking it and think I am someone who is acting out just to get attention...... Like I mean I don't like even being looked at let alone wanting to have attention.
Yup thanks god I was diagnosed when I was like 6 so I always knew but I like wachind videos like these because like in the part of the Amazon thing I have never related so much or if something pops up in my head I HAVE to say it or I will forget. I am also a girl so that makes me extra lucky to be diagnosed since I was little and videos like these mkae me realize again.. cuz I literally forget that people actually do the same things I do lol
"Are you easily distracted/ Do you hyperfocus?" me: *Either gets too distracted to do something, or too focused and intent on finishing it to the point of burnout. No in between*
I get a lot of drawing ideas right before I go to sleep but I always have to draw them and write some context or else I'll forget it by morning. Every day, I almost completely forget the entire previous day and I can forget things I was just told or that just happened in as little as two minutes (luckily that's not often). I think there could be something else going on as well but I think ADHD is a contributing factor.
Thank you so much for this. I think I finally needed to hear that. I am now looking for a doctor in my region who can help me with getting meds. It's not only troubling my personal life with for example time management, but also holding me back with getting my studies done. I really want to finish my bachelor and I do need help with it because I constantly find myseld avoiding to start learning. And yes, there is always the thought "I am too lazy" coming with it...
“Do you have trouble with your short term memory?” HA! Dude I sometimes forget my thoughts immediately after thinking them, particularly with ideas, I don't know why
Hahahah this 😂 whenever i talk something, and the person asks me to repeat it, i find it almost impossible to repeat.. Also when I need to tell what happened if someone asks me.. Damn, i am wasting all of my energy trying to find words
You ever sneeze and then have to try and convince yourself you actually sneezed because you kinda half forgot it happened , like you sneeze then 2 minutes later you have to convince yourself you actually sneezed .... Yeah that happens to me all the time lol
FUK :( Now you're making me think about actually doing the homework after spending 4 hours staring at a question I just realized I already solved. God I'm so stupid.
A minute into the video, I got distracted. And then I just heard "If you said yes to all of these things..." And I was like "Huh? Is it already done? So quick...?"
I get that alot with Videos & Movies or zoning out in the middle of a conversation or getting distracted. It is hard trying to stay calm when someone is yelling at you for zoning out or getting easily distracted. I know that ive got ADHD proven from a doctor but it helps me to understand more about it. I would love to help everyone else out with their problems and mis - understandings. If there is anything else on your mind that you would like more support with Feel free to send me a email johnnyuren2000@gmail.com or message me on facebook Johnny Uren. My profile picture has a rainbow with stars on it behind me and my cover picture is fireworks.
Me: having all these symptoms My Brain: it’s probably nothing. People hate it when you self diagnose and no one will believe you. (Thanks for the likes lmao we all need to see a doctor)
I'm already on this video because I got distracted from something else I was doing. 8.5 / 10. No issues with emotional control any more than any other regular person. Did break some controllers as a kid, not that many though. Some impulsivity, but I've learned a few ways to control it. Everything else is a thousand times yes and I think a lot of that was me since early childhood.
it's especially hard when you were born as a very smart person and now you don't know how to study and you can't focus on things that you have learned before so everyone just thinks that you are lazy and then get mad at you
once i tried to do a meditation tactic where u imagine a storm-tossed sea that calms down and comes under ur control and i literally got hit in the face by a crab. i dont even-
10/10. I add those points too: My voice changes; for instance, when "I'm relaxed" I never relaxed, but when I start work, when i wake up, or something, my voice is normal calm and soft. But when I'm feeling motivated, my way of speaking speeds up and my tone changes, sometimes reaching a high-pitched, fast pace like a squeaky mouse. I can't seem to control it, and I can't take possession of it. Furthermore, I act like a child when I work - and I do this professionally. I exhibit childlike behaviors, such as being constantly cheerful, highly motivated, always smiling, helping everyone, joking, and engaging in playful movements, some of which may seem silly but bring smiles. I'm genuine, I don't put on airs, I have no pretensions, and everything seems to go well for me. I don't experience jealousy at work, and sometimes, I struggle to discern whether someone is making fun of me or not. I speak rapidly to the point that people can't keep up, and they often ask me to repeat what I just said. I'm not a native English speaker, and I often receive compliments for speaking like a native. However, if people aren't English speakers, they find it hard to follow the thread of the conversation and ask me to repeat it, most of the times slow me down -.-. Slow speakers seem boring to me, and I struggle to follow them because I'm always thinking, thinking, thinking when they are speaking. For me, work is like a game. I enjoy it, love interacting with people, helping them, and exploring with them if they have any issues or can't find something. I hyper focus on things, and I keep searching for a solution until I find a solid point. I always ask for forgiveness for everything: if I do something, if I move and touch someone, if I walk in front of people talking, if I accidentally brush against someone, or if they are in the wrong. Apologizing is a constant part of my daily life, and I don't know how to stop it. I've tried, but it keeps coming back.
VIDEO: "Do you have trouble shutting off your brain?" ME: "no" ALSO ME: can't stop thinking at night so I unintentionally stay up until I physically can't anymore, and then I crash from sleep deprivation.
bruh that's me, I used to go sleep earlier at like 11pm-12am but I just couldn't stop thinking and it'd be to the point where I'd finally be falling asleep but then once I thought that my head would just go nuts with random ideas. Now I stay up until I'm about to pass out aka at like 1-3am, which I mean it isn't good since I'm constantly tired now.
1. Trouble starting projects 2. Poor attention to detail 3. Easily distracted 4. Hyperfocus 5. Bad time management 6. Disorganized 7. Over emotional 8. Impulsive 9. Forgetful 10. Trouble shutting off your brain Just because I completely forgot everything he said the moment this video was over, I made a cheat sheet for us 😂
I have 10/10 of these. This would make sense. The only thing I don't do is interrupt people but that is mainly because it pisses me off when people do it so I have "trained" myself to not do it. I do still go "Oh!" as soon as it pops in and I just stack my head super fast if they try to stop talking to hear me.
Love how several times he would say a symptom and I’d be like “nah not really” and then he would give examples of what he means and I’d be like “….. oh”
My girlfriend and I broke up recently hopefully not long term. And I thought her advice of getting assessed for adhd was a little crazy till I read up on it and every single one almost I had the ahhh shit maybe she’s right moments.
“Do you have trouble starting projects, but fly through the planning part really easily?” Me, whose planned out seven novels but have started none of them: 👁 👄 👁
Me writing on discord while i'm looking at this because I'm already lost interest to know if i have adhd and saving it to watch it later (never, probably)
Try and reach out to someone if you think you have it it’s better just to know if you have it then not knowing that way you can help yourself also I really like your profile picture.
Imposter's syndrome. Same. About everything. I've been a bartender/ waitress for 6 years or so and I still feel like I'm just pretending to be cool... like that's cool? 😂

Don't be afraid to tell your parents:)
But If you're really uncomfortable with it, try to tell a friend or a family member!
You don't have to say you have it, you say you think you might have it & maybe want to get it checked out!
i used to be in the exact same boat as you.
have a teacher contact your parents on your behalf, or just outright ask them. idk what your family situation is like.
also the actual test is pretty much just a questionnaire similar to this. which of these symptoms do u have? how long have u noticed them? do u have family history with adhd? stuff like that. if u have 10/10 of these, i would bet money that u have adhd.

Yes to everything (to an oddly high degree) except these two:
1. Being late. I tell people in my family that being on time = being late. My way of avoiding this is to give myself a 30% time buffer for everything I need to do that's important. Walking to the dentist is the most recent example: takes 20-25 minutes of walking (depending on speed) but I will leave at *latest* 30 minutes prior. How do I do that? By doing everything to prepare for leaving 5-10 minutes prior bare minimum.

Now, that can lead to me being selfish, and I try to keep that in mind; perhaps they genuinely just didn't pick up on queues I thought were obvious (putting my hand up slightly and starting to talk but stopping within 1 word usually.)
Anyways...when there was a string of "yes, that's me" it was kinda 'funny,' because I started getting a bit emotional...followed by you talking about the emotional part. I don't get emotional often, but weird things can hit me hard.
I don't really care to get diagnosed professionally, but I'm glad to know how I can start understanding myself better.
Thanks.
My brain knowing I have all of these symptoms: “ No I’m faking having all of these symptoms “
Try and get diagnosed
OMG I LITERALY TELL MY SELF IM FAKING IT ALL THE TIME EVEN THOUGH I GET DEPRESSED WHEN OTHER PEOPLE TELL ME IM FAKING IT LMAO!!!!!

Damn...
I don't comment on videos often, but I came back to this video years later and watching it again made me smile. I originally found this video when I was 18 and going through a super rough point in my life and it was through videos like this that I recognized my own ADHD and was able to get a diagnosis and treatment. I even showed your video to my parents when I told them I thought I might have ADHD. So I wanted to say THANK YOU for posting this and helping people like me to understand themselves and their brains better!
Hi! Um im 18 rn and I’ve gone through a lot this year so i was a little afraid that maybe these simptoms were actually depression or anxiety (idk if I have those but they are more likely to be caused by emotional distress), because I can’t really remember any of these when I was a child, as all I know is that I, at some point, had good grades (therefore payed attention in class ig??) and was just a little quirky and alienated in class. However all of these things described in this video REALLY resonate with the me now and even in the past few 3-4 years, as I’ve felt out of place for a while now. So I wanted to ask if this was also your situation back then or sth like that? Anyway thx 4 listening and hope ur doing amazing rn 🫶

iTs ThAt DaM pHoNe
Been on a waiting list to get diagnosed for around 4 years, and in this video, every question was a yes. My mom also thinks she has it as well and some people don’t understand what it is like for us, so I got told growing up: “Attention Seeking”, “YOUR OVERREACTING, STOP IT”, “DON’T SNAP AT ME”, the list could go on forever. Luckily, awareness of ADHD is spreading but still, not everybody gets it especially Boomers, Gen Z, and sometimes Millennials. But they also can have it, but they didn’t know back then, and they might still not know now. My mom got harshly punished as a child because of ADHD, so please, just spread the awareness of it. Thank you.
I'm Gen X - the one everybody forgets. When I was a kid it was called "hyperactive" and it was usually the squirrelly boy in class that was labeled "hyper". Every report card I had said I was smart but spent all day in class daydreaming, staring out the window and talking with classmates. I was always called lazy and in trouble for not studying, not cleaning my super disorganized room and being super emotional about everything. I am 57 now and always wonder how different my life might have been had I been diagnosed and treated at a young age.
Waiting list? My dr just gave me a paper to check stuff off

It makes me mad when people say that “ADHD is fake” or that “everyone has ADHD”, people don’t know how tiring, hard, and stressful it is to actually have it. People have said to me things like “just focus, sit down, or be still” LIKE BRO I PHYSICALLY CANTTTTTTT. I was diagnosed on the 8th grade and I wish more people talked about it and ways to manage it.
omg I just spent the last 1.5 hours replying to your comment, and freaking accidently DELETED IT!!!!! it was prob tldr anyway. one thing I was saying was that I can't sit still to save my life and my leg will just bounce, up and down and people will come up to me and try to hold my leg down, or tell me to stop cuz I'm driving them nuts. I HATE THAT!!
Same here but... I was diagnosed with ADHD..... wait... idek but it was definitely before da age of 5
I was told it my whole life. I got diagnosed when I was born :P
I totally agree with you. I have had ADHD since I was 3, and I couldn't even tell you how many time I was sent to the principal's office because I couldn't either focus on my work or stay in one place. As well as people who get so mad that they think I am faking it and think I am someone who is acting out just to get attention...... Like I mean I don't like even being looked at let alone wanting to have attention.
Yup thanks god I was diagnosed when I was like 6 so I always knew but I like wachind videos like these because like in the part of the Amazon thing I have never related so much or if something pops up in my head I HAVE to say it or I will forget. I am also a girl so that makes me extra lucky to be diagnosed since I was little and videos like these mkae me realize again.. cuz I literally forget that people actually do the same things I do lol

Not me in my class going over a power point and absolutely remembering nothing right after it.
I get a lot of drawing ideas right before I go to sleep but I always have to draw them and write some context or else I'll forget it by morning. Every day, I almost completely forget the entire previous day and I can forget things I was just told or that just happened in as little as two minutes (luckily that's not often). I think there could be something else going on as well but I think ADHD is a contributing factor.

10/10. I add those points too: My voice changes; for instance, when "I'm relaxed" I never relaxed, but when I start work, when i wake up, or something, my voice is normal calm and soft. But when I'm feeling motivated, my way of speaking speeds up and my tone changes, sometimes reaching a high-pitched, fast pace like a squeaky mouse. I can't seem to control it, and I can't take possession of it. Furthermore, I act like a child when I work - and I do this professionally. I exhibit childlike behaviors, such as being constantly cheerful, highly motivated, always smiling, helping everyone, joking, and engaging in playful movements, some of which may seem silly but bring smiles. I'm genuine, I don't put on airs, I have no pretensions, and everything seems to go well for me. I don't experience jealousy at work, and sometimes, I struggle to discern whether someone is making fun of me or not. I speak rapidly to the point that people can't keep up, and they often ask me to repeat what I just said. I'm not a native English speaker, and I often receive compliments for speaking like a native. However, if people aren't English speakers, they find it hard to follow the thread of the conversation and ask me to repeat it, most of the times slow me down -.-. Slow speakers seem boring to me, and I struggle to follow them because I'm always thinking, thinking, thinking when they are speaking. For me, work is like a game. I enjoy it, love interacting with people, helping them, and exploring with them if they have any issues or can't find something. I hyper focus on things, and I keep searching for a solution until I find a solid point. I always ask for forgiveness for everything: if I do something, if I move and touch someone, if I walk in front of people talking, if I accidentally brush against someone, or if they are in the wrong. Apologizing is a constant part of my daily life, and I don't know how to stop it. I've tried, but it keeps coming back.
VIDEO: "Do you have trouble shutting off your brain?"
ME: "no"
ALSO ME: can't stop thinking at night so I unintentionally stay up until I physically can't anymore, and then I crash from sleep deprivation.
bruh that's me, I used to go sleep earlier at like 11pm-12am but I just couldn't stop thinking and it'd be to the point where I'd finally be falling asleep but then once I thought that my head would just go nuts with random ideas. Now I stay up until I'm about to pass out aka at like 1-3am, which I mean it isn't good since I'm constantly tired now.
I listen to podcasts to stop think and i just let them talk even if I’m not paying attention to what they r saying
Ha! Literally me rn
This is scarily accurate for me too lol
I use it to my advantage and make up stories so it distracts my brain long enough to sleep
Me:
This whole comment section: “him: ‘are you easily distracted?”
Daizy Quainton 😂😂😂😂, literally, the I first comment I read after yours said that and I lost it.
1. Trouble starting projects
2. Poor attention to detail
3. Easily distracted
4. Hyperfocus
5. Bad time management
6. Disorganized
7. Over emotional
8. Impulsive
9. Forgetful
10. Trouble shutting off your brain
Just because I completely forgot everything he said the moment this video was over, I made a cheat sheet for us 😂
i want to ask him if he can explain this for a person with adhd xD
i have all of them- hol'up what
me 😅
LOL this is what I was just looking for. Thank u
😂😂u da homie fr i also would forget
I have 10/10 of these. This would make sense. The only thing I don't do is interrupt people but that is mainly because it pisses me off when people do it so I have "trained" myself to not do it. I do still go "Oh!" as soon as it pops in and I just stack my head super fast if they try to stop talking to hear me.
Love how several times he would say a symptom and I’d be like “nah not really” and then he would give examples of what he means and I’d be like “….. oh”
That itself is a symptom 💀
omg saaaame💀
Lmfao well now I need to make a doctors appointment 😅
I know, right!!
My girlfriend and I broke up recently hopefully not long term. And I thought her advice of getting assessed for adhd was a little crazy till I read up on it and every single one almost I had the ahhh shit maybe she’s right moments.
"Do you find yourself zoning out of a conversation really easily"
Me: *immediately zones out*
I never heard question 7 I just thought he’s skipped from 6 to 8 lol
@@liamsamples same
Moi
before he said that i was already zoned out
I don´t even remember him saying that and I watched the video twice
Him:"do you hyper focus?"
*Spends two days playing a game with barely any food and one bathroom break* yeah.
EL JAY LOUIS yo what
every single time
I can literally play a game for 24 hours strait with a death room break so yeah same😂
(Edit) so I see you like my hero academia also 👌
That’s a separate unhealthy behavior. Not simply hyper focus.
@@TheSCPStudio sounds like behaviors of someone with ADHD though
9.5/10 i dont really hyperfocus often but do sometimes. Very insightful test, thanks for making this video!!
*me being diagnosed and on medication*
me- realizes i don’t have a lot of them
also me- realizes i’m on medication and it’s working
i’m glad you’re on medication! i hope it continues to help you!
idk why this was so funny
* Proceeds to forget said medication *
Rtrtrtrt

Me too 😂
I was planning to see a psychiatrist now I can't because of Corona...I'm just disappointed
Zz cc bro same!
Fantastic Esther omg me
"do you have poor attention to details"
me: zones out and goes back 10 seconds to hear what he said
painted scars and then zones out again so you never know what he said
Literally read this comment then realized I missed what he was saying and had to go back 10 seconds 😭😂
the fact that i got distracted and fell asleep while watching this is enough for me
Everyone: relating in the comments
*me who thought all this stuff was normal: 👁👄👁*
WAIT SAME-
me too aughh
Wait, is this the reason why me and my brother are the weird members of the family???
Same!
I FELT this 😆
“Are you easily distracted” me wondering how long it took for him to grow his beard and scrolling through the comment section right away.
“Do you have trouble starting projects, but fly through the planning part really easily?”
Me, whose planned out seven novels but have started none of them: 👁 👄 👁
big big mood
Meeee
SAME THING I HAVE SO MUCH IDEAS BUT ITS JUST HARD TO START THEM LMAO
Big big mood I do this alllll the time
yeah
Me writing on discord while i'm looking at this because I'm already lost interest to know if i have adhd and saving it to watch it later (never, probably)
me having 9 fingers down
me: maybe i should go see a d-
my brains: stop don’t try self diagnosing nobody likes that
me: right-
I feel you. You really should reach out to someone, push those thoughts back and just try your best to get the help you need. You can do this.
@@kyrahrose7429 awe thanks
Try and reach out to someone if you think you have it it’s better just to know if you have it then not knowing that way you can help yourself also I really like your profile picture.
Not only that but when someone you love, say your parents, don’t believe you and think you’re just being a teenager
hoo hoo hoo found a MCYT fan im also part of MCYT
