    I was diagnosed with ADHD since my teenage, spent my whole life fighting ADHD. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder.

      @Paul_Michael 4 місяці тому

      Mushrooms are very medicinal. This is why
      anybody familiar with psilocybin and any other kind of fungi will tell you, "They are alive." They have a very ancient wisdom. To my experience, all mushrooms have always said, "Pay attention to your life. How you think, how you feel, and what will you do with the information that you always knew, but now are seeing in this point of view." This is why mushrooms are so respected in tribal cultures. This mental health treatment works for me too. Half micro doses do the trick for me. At least a few days at a time with lengthy time in between. Thank you for sharing this point!

    I have autism and ADHD, and whenever I talk about how stressed out I feel, all the teachers are just like “do you know how stressful my life is, as a parent?” And even though I know being an adult is really stressful, it still hurts for a teacher to compare their life with yours instead of trying to console and comfort you.

    I love that you added the “Teacher” part. In my family we all have ADHD from my Grandmother down to my smallest child that was also diagnosed with Autism. Both are now being linked. I’m pretty sure I am also Autistic. I suffered so much in school. Teachers hated and abused me. I’m glad there is more awareness today, but I hate how now everyone wants to have a disability because it’s trending. If they knew how hard it’s like to live like this… I have had depression since 6 yrs old and to this day have never taken any meds to help and have managed so far without it. My son declined to keep using meds and both are also just dealing with the help of school IEPs. Teachers made fun of my child instead of understanding his condition. And they were cruel to me.

    I have a brother with adhd, and he currently has the same primary teacher I had when I was younger. I couldn’t be more grateful for her. She understands that my brother has adhd and struggles focusing, so she never gets on at him to much. She knows when he’s struggling and made a small den in a spare and unused classroom for him to sit in when he’s stressed. She always keeps a friend nearby so that they will be able to talk to him if things get out of hand. She has been the only teacher to point out of my brother actually had a rough day so that my mum (and sometimes me aswell) could help deal with it. All these small things had actually helped my brother and he’s had a great year mental health wise, and I’m so thankful that she is his teacher. Apparently she might be moving up a year and my brother could possibly have her next year as a teacher, I really hope he does. That teacher has always been my favourite, and that’s just one of the reasons.

    Think it is important to point out that AdHD isn't a deficiency. It's a diversity in neurological development. Meaning the person is not diminished in any way, they simply exceed in different forms. They have just as much potential as "normal" kids/adults. We just need to find our own box to fit in since society made a mould that doesn't fit us:).

So since they never took me she took her own initiative to help me and asked me if all the noise in the classroom bothered me and I nodded yes so she told me I could wear these headphones while working if I was having trouble and that I could wear them during tests and she would separate my desk from everyone else’s to see if it helped me.

I don't pay attention, I fail all math assignments given to me, and I'm just always either running in the halls or yelling at people I don't like. Sometimes I can't control my anger either. I end up getting detention or just sitting in my classroom writing a 2 page paragraph about my behavior.

    @gamer_ike_07 Рік тому +4

    As a peraon who was diagnosed in 1st grade with adhd I think this is stuff everyone needs to know and I think this is a great video. And I want to share my story. Throughout school and most of the time until 1st grade I had trouble learning.l; I would stress at school and dozens off or zone out during classes, and had trouble understanding anything really. I remember having to stay up with my parents until midnight to work on schoolwork and just struggles anyways. The worst was speed multiplication. We started multiplication quite early and this way of teaching it didn't work for me. We were give an page of 20 multiplication problems and 3 minutes to solve them, you would go through 10 levels of multiplication, one level for each number 1-10. Every time you got it right you would move on to the next number. By the end of the year I got to 6 and everyone else was making fun of me. Up until 1st grade the school tried to tell my parents I was just stupid and had no mental issues despite my parents wanting to get me tested for autism or adhd, since autism is common in my family. The teaches supposedly didn't want me to be tested by their recommendation as apparently they would have had to have paid something to make the school accessible to me like have counseling or something. They changed their mind after 1st grade. I had all F's and was being held inside instead of recess again for 4 weeks in a row. I had piles of homework from all my teachers and my teacher was getting annoyed with me, so I had an impulsive panic and thought ripping up all of my papers would fix the issue. Immediately after I ripped it up I regretted what I did and broke into tears. I then gripped onto the bottom of the table for an hour, and after the principle tried to peel me off, the principle talked me into letting go and heading to the office. They called my parents, told them what happened, then recommended I get tested for adhd and autism. After that I got onto medicine and was an A and B student until high-school in a different school. I recommend that if you feel like you have adhd or autism or any other mental disabilities, to tell your parents and ask to be tested, even if you don't have any disabilities atleadt you know now.

    I have adhd and when the doctor told my mum, she just told me ‘having adhd is just a label to help kids get out of doing stuff like homework.’ and until I was older I believed that adhd wasn’t a real thing and that I should never tell anyone about my adhd because it wasn’t real and I would be laughed at.

Until I began to address my ADHD symptoms I couldn’t effectively teach my kids. It’s made a world of difference. I can’t believe I lived so many decades feeling like a loser. I’m m not a loser. I simply have ADHD so I have some specific challenges in life. And I am ok with that but also work on bettering myself.

    I have moments in my past that I literally don't remember at all because I was zoned out. What's been helping me is incorporating movement into the moments when I lose motivation (which is a big struggle for ADHDers).
    I.e. I rake the leaves, dance for a few minutes, walk outside, or just getting up and cleaning something.
    Movement helps me reset and helps me remember and get motivated.

      My first grade teacher was a really bad person, she even got fired some years later. Since my parents helped me with reading and writing before I entered school, it was spare time for me. I just did what I wanted to, finished the activities quickly and play some more. She yelled at me because "I wasn't paying attention", even if I already finished the activities. I couldn't even ask a classmate for a eraser because she'd say that I'm distracting them. I had to learn how to lie and hide my "blue notebook" (The blue notebook was a notebook for the teachers to communicate with the parents. They'd write down any excellent or bad behavior.) because she'd write that I don't do anything. She damaged my self-esteem badly ;-;

I was diagnosed along with dislexy and disgraphy when I was little, but doctors said it might be one of sideefects of my inborn neurological problem - AMV - alongside with epilepsy. Since childhood I wasn’t good at concentrating at things I didn’t care about, but because I was curious and understood things well, I got throw 10 grades of school without much problem and got even throw the rest and got my highscool diploma. I still have a problem managing my shedule and need external stimulations to be able to do things, but alarm on my phone takes that role.😅

    The man who diagnosed me said that AD(H)D is most commonly undiagnosed is girls,
    He said that it's because girls are naturally multitasking people, while boys are naturally more likely to work on one at a time, so it's more noticeable that they can't pay attention,
    For example; you might notice that a boy is picking up different hobbys, then dropping the last one,
    But if you saw a girl with multiple hobbys, you might just think they have more than one,
    I personally, have noticed that things I do in every-day life are influenced *by my ADHD!*
    For example; watching videos. I've noticed now that I tend to get bored very easily, so I jump from video to video rapidly,
    Some manage to hold my attention because they are like storys, story's manage to hold onto my attention because they give me tidbits *constantly*
    So I always have something to think about that is close enough to the plot that I don't get lost in thought,
    Audiobooks are almost as good as reading it itself, I prefer holding the book in my hands, but listening is fine,
    I also noticed that I'm much more picky with the kinds of games or books I like to read, with games;
    I've found that I'm not interested in fighting games, more specifically the one where all you do is fight, as long as there is an immersive story I like it,
    With books; they have to have an interesting description/cover/title, otherwise I'm not really keen on reading it.
    I've also seen that I'm not that big of a fan of slice-of-life or other genres like that, I'm much more of a fantasy person.
    Any way, I've probably rattled off too long, hope this helps!

      Wow its really cool to read about another person like me. I have ADHD but I did not get diagnosed until I was 23 and in graduate school. I have always been really smart and gotten good grades but I had to try super hard to be there. I also had an uphill battle when it came to getting diagnosed because people would ask how i wasn't diagnosed yet. The answer is honestly I grew up in low income neighborhoods so my mom had to HOUND the schools to get me tested for dyslexia while I showed signs of it in all my classes so anything else was out of the question. But on top of that I was home schooled from 3rd grade until college. When I finally got to see a psychiatrist for my ADHD she took one look at me and called me the poster child for ADHD. But between that time I learned so many coping skills including focusing on stories. I love reading though I find it had to sit still so I find a incredible story and focus on that though they are few and far between. I love video games but the story has to be solid or I am just not into it. When I go to bed 90% of the time my mind is racing so I have to make up a story to relax it and let me sleep. I have also found music useful to drown out the distractions but again I have to be picky.

    If you feel like you have these symptoms, but are just overthinking it, you’re probably not. Trust yourself, and check it out, because even if it’s not ADHD, it may be something else, and at least confirmation on what it may be can help so much. Good luck everyone, and have a nice day :)

    as a 14 years old diagnosed with adhd, depression and many other mental problems, i really loved ur vid as its something i can actually relate to. i have started taking meds for adhd it actually does affect my appetite and gives me nausea. i loved the fact that u made sure to tell what parents and teachers must do. i always did heard all my things like "u r genius just need to focus" or "u r so messy try being organised"
    i really loved how u made me feel related to this part.
    i even agree with the fact about disorders and genetics being connected. side effects of meds are actually serious i feel like cuz when i take pills i can concentrate whole day but it effects my appetite and even has a bad contrasts sometimes with my sleeping meds.

    Even though I might have adhd my teacher does not want frequent playtimes only for adhd kids. Why? Because she says “it would not be fair to others in our surrounding environment that adhd kids would get to move around but not the ‘normal’ kids.”. But physical education teachers and other side educators have let kids with adhd move around in the past (even freely). So while I (a fellow kid who might have adhd) feel that adhd kids should be able to move around (not freely) but 5 minutes breaks for all kids every 15 to 20 minutes would be helpful. Thank you for reading this, and may god bless you in every positive and possible way! ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏼🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏿❤️

    Ive shown a lot of symptoms of ADHD and autism throughout my childhood, and my dad was assessed for it when he was younger but was told he couldnt have it because he was "too smart." I've also heard that ADHD in girls (im biologically a girl, but dont identify as one. aka, im trans) is commonly misdiagnosed as anxiety and depression, doctors confirmed that its most likely I had some sort of general anxiety but it was never offically diagnosed, and my dad picked up on a lot of symptoms of depression that I showed. My sister and I finally collected enough research and evidence that it'd be worth getting me assessed, so thats hopefully what will be happening later this year. :]

      My diagnosis was put off until I was 16 (aka this year) because my parents dismissed my inattentivity, forgetfulness, disorganisation, lack of motivation and tons of other shit as mere “behavioural problems”. I also thought they were just that and thought my 2 minute attention span and EXTREMELY bad short term memory were normal. Then when I looked up the term ADHD randomly when I was 15, I realised that my struggles matched ALL the symptoms on the inattentive list, and a big part of the hyperactive/impulsive list. So I begged my parents to let me see a psychiatrist, and when they didn’t listen I visited a counsellor. I got my official diagnosis this January and turns out, yes, I do in fact have ADHD.
      I have literally heard people going “oh I have ADHD because one time I spaced out during a boring lecture but because it’s just one time so it’s probably mild” like bitch no wtf. I’ve been struggling with it severely for all 10 years of my school life and you say shit like this?? Not cool

      Honestly the only reason I say I have ADD without a proper diagnosis is because my mom, dad, and brother have it and I express pretty much all of the symptoms except a few of the hyperactivity ones. I never actually knew how ADD really impacted me until I dug deep into some research and found out what it actually was. My mom just said it was a different way of thinking and never went into all the negatives of it so until recently I had no idea why certain social aspects of myself seemed so different compared to everybody else or why it was so hard to just do some of my work. I didn’t really know how people with ADD often take things harder or in a different way than others. It led to me feeling kind of alien in a way, but, hey. At least I know more about it now. My parents both believe me to have it so maybe it’s not really a self diagnoses? Everybody else was diagnosed and they didn’t take me because they didn’t think I needed meds because I could kind of contain my grades in the “decent” area.

      But sometimes when people self diagnose, it's a cry out for help saying "I think something may be wrong with my brain chemistry". And a certain mental disorder may fit the bill to them, like ADHD, Dyslexia or Autism Spectrum Disorders. They're usually young people, and are probably too afraid to tell their parents because they've been shut down by them or ignored and neglected by them. Quite possibly they have these disorders, but no one wants to believe them, because it's easy to believe that the way someone acts is just their personality or upbringing rather than a mental disorder. No one in my family wants to believe I have anything but Depression and Anxiety, but Dyslexia, OCD, ADHD, Torettes, it all runs in the family. Self diagnosis is sometimes the first step for adults with undiagnosed mental disorders who have struggled all through school under the radar.

    As someone who got diagnosed with adhd at 10 years old, I wish my teachers and parents knew this. I struggled with school (still do) so much and no one knew how to deal with it so they just put pressure on me.
    Now as an adult, I'm having to rewire my mind into not beating myself up and being more compassionate to the fact that I am gonna have a hard time and that it's okay.

    I struggle a lot in class with ADHD but only my friends know my friends know I have it. I get told to pay attention more when we are going over how to work out the problems and stuff but even then I zone out and every! What I like to do to help is talk to my friends about it and see what they can do to help before getting help from the counselor at our school :)

    I just want to tell my experience:
    I got ADHD due to trauma when i was 6 years old to primary school where there was theachers that they used to punish you if you get distracted or if you don't understand the lesson, i was often distracted so i've been punished more than the others in my class; i've developed a sense of fear about every one, in particular about the adults.
    Fortunately i went in another primary school, where the teachers and my classmates was the complete opposite compared to the previous school;
    After 6 months of hell and various visits to the psicologyst, after that, i improved my memory, orginise myself better and bacame more extrovert, confident in my choises and patient.
