The world is changing. And fast. I'm 47 and only diagnosed about six years ago. Meds work brilliantly, I become a freaking machine but they also make me extremely 'agitated' or better, aggressive. So I'm off meds and figured it mostly out myself. The difference now and when I was a kid is people are at the very least aware how to cope with ADHD and how to react. ADHD was known then but rarely recognized and treated. I've been called lazy, a failure, a waste of incredible talent and so on. Trust me. It's better now then it has been in my lifetime. I work as an educator, been running a household with two kids alone half of the time ( co parent) for the last six years and generally been functioning fine. Because I put in an enormous effort, but also because the people around me understand and care. My personal experience in this day and age is something of a miracle. Instead of being judged I'm mainly being understood. Granted, it took effort. Lots of it. But the people around me do appreciate me for who I am. My employer pretty much tailored my tasks around my strengths and it's a win win situation for both of us.

My favorite part about ADHD is my empathy, since I go through tons of emotions and my reactions, opinions, and ways of processing them always change over time I'm able to understand whatever other people are feeling since I literally go through so many different emotions every day and my perspective on them changes several times a month I feel like whatever state of mind someone is going through, based on their actions I can see myself when I went through that same thing, and I give my friends alot of generally good advice and my friends also find it east to engage in emotional/deep conversation topics with me

My ADHD superpower: I'm never bored. Really. My brain is full of interesting stuff thanks to a lifetime of reading, daydreaming and actual real-life adventures, so it automatically opens up an amazing mental playground when potentially boring stuff is going on outside. Which means that if I have to go through something that doesn't fill me with glee and doesn't require my focus (looking at you, today's iron infusion treatment!), I can go inside my head and be completely enthralled for as much time as I need.

Everybody else does not enter the "playfulness" category out of fear it might be contagious and they might learn something... or I don't know... It's like nobody else knows that there are more things you can with your time beside cleaning house, or watching something. Maybe they have some sort of Attention Deficit Disorder, cos they cannot see opportunities...

Why would I do that when if I just tweak that one thing, everything will work?

The one I love about my adhd is that I am able to daydream at will whenever I want. Its amazing, I look like I’m focusing but I’m really focusing on my favorite video game characters.

I started this video just as my 10 year old son (who also has ADHD) was walking by. He stopped and watched the whole thing with me. I looked over at him when it was done and he had a huge smile on his face. I said "see it's actually cool that we have ADHD huh?" He said "yeah, I like this." Thank you so much.

Same thing here bro.

Oddly enough, it makes me great at project planning, mostly because I expect deadlines to be exceeded, and I've developed mad improvisation skills (and that's fun too). So when I build a project schedule, I mean engineer in extreme detail a project schedule, it's full of padding, plans B through F, and when something unforeseen happens... I enjoy figuring out to fix it.

I just wanted to acknowledge when you made the video you had 15,000 subscribers. Now you have 1.35 million. Way to go!!!

This is the first time ever that I have genuinely thought that having ADHD was an advantage. Thank you.

SURE it’s in our nature to look at how certain aspects have held us back in order to improve ourselves, but it’s important to see what strengths they bring to our lives too :)

i think my favourite thing about having adhd is the connection between other people with adhd. i feel like i’m running at the same pace at them mentally and it’s so refreshing to just be around them as i’m usually around people who don’t understand me as much lol

Literally some of my most impressive accomplishments to date are because of my ADHD :) from networking with people that I admire so much and cannot believe they wanted to work with me, to going viral a few years ago because I designed a coloring book to help kids ease their PTSD after a major earthquake hit Mexico city, to becoming friends with my biggest inspiration who happens to be a celebrity because of a gift I thought of making for her and her family, hyper-focusing on it for over 2 weeks and actually getting it done...and I could go on and on!! Like, yeah, maybe If I didn't have it, my life would have been easier and I wouldn't be dealing with internalized thoughts of not being good enough to get the job that I want BUT luckily I got diagnosed just in time and I truly believe getting to know my brain through therapy and the amazing tactics you so kindly share with the world, are priceless weapons of choice to tackle whatever obstacles I have to face so I can get there. I hope you know how many lives you've changed and touched, Jess 🧠❤!

I have to say I agree with a lot of this.....but I'm an introvert so I don't show my excitement all the time and I don't talk all the time. I do interrupt a lot though when I actually have something to say. I have the inattentive day dream kind of ADHD so a lot of what happens is internalized and not usually external.

This week I've been grieving because of it, which also feels like it came out of the blue. So, thanks for the reminder that having my brain comes with perks.

@@marjannikolic2224 I’ve always been called a weirdo and a lazy person. I went to the psychologist for help with my low self stem and my anxiety and got diagnosed with ADHD.

Back then, I had no idea that I had ADHD, but just before law school, I learned a little about speed reading, and it became one of those subjects that inspired my hyperfocus. As it turns out, speed reading benefits from hyperfocus, and most of the time I was able to hyperfocus on the things I was reading, at least for short periods. It made law school SOooooo much easier, because I could do my reading assignments just before a class, and the material was fresh in my mind for the class discussions. When a professor asked a question, I was that guy with my hand in the air, ready with an answer. And I didn't have to spend long hours in the library reading, like my classmates did. Sadly, real life isn't like school. Law practice requires less reading and more writing, and ADHD doesn't help me to write any more easily. The constant wandering mind is definitely NOT helpful. I've only recently learned that I have ADHD, and it makes my past life struggles much easier to understand.

Dr. conners (the father of ADHD) writes: "For many years I interpreted everything about ADHD in a positive light: the increased research funding and accumulating research findings; the increased clinical awareness; more kids being treated with stimulants; the interest of parents and teachers; legislation making ADHD kids candidates for Special Ed; even drug company support for medical education and parents’ groups like CHADD. All seemed to be positive solutions to an important problem facing many families and school systems. But then one day I was asked to give a talk on what is the true prevalence of ADHD, as shown by empirical data. I was already aware that in some circles America is a laughingstock for its love affair with the idea of ADHD. Massive European birth registries show far lower rates than those being reported in the U.S. And my wife, who is a school psychologist, was telling me that any misbehaving kid in school would be quickly labeled ADHD by teachers. I was always suspicious that the high rates of “diagnosis” and prescription for ADHD came about because researchers based their figures on reports from parents, who in turn based their beliefs on teachers or doctors with no credible evidence. However large a massive survey, the data are pretty much worthless for one simple reason: there is no thorough history taking and hands-on clinical diagnosis. Large numbers of participants in a study guarantee sloppy diagnoses done via telephone interviews conducted by non clinicians. Careful diagnosis by clinicians is simply too expensive. The reported rates are inaccurate and exaggerated, upper limits not true prevalence. There was one exception in the literature, a massive study in the Western counties of North Carolina by two epidemiologists at Duke University. The investigators, Adrian Angold and Jane Costello, interviewed thousands of parents AND THEIR CHILDREN, using the latest epidemiological methods. They devised a comprehensive interview schedule and trained dozens of interviewers with a thesaurus that made sure the same inquiry took place exactly the same way for each family. For the first time, this highly praised award-winning study had both large numbers and detailed clinical examination. The results of this amazing project were startling. Only about 1-2% qualified as ADHD. Moreover, many children not sick at all had been given a stimulant drug. Also there were some children who actually qualified for the diagnosis of ADHD who never were identified by a mental health professional; there was both over-diagnosis and under- diagnosis. The findings were replicated in successive rounds of follow-on studies. It seems obvious to me that the steady increases over time In the apparent high prevalence of ADHD is due to doctor practices fueled by the shoddy science and allure of the big numbers, without the only meaningful ingredient of a comprehensive clinical history. Doctors on the front line who only have 20 minutes to get a story from a parent or to follow with medication checks or alternative therapies, are under pressure that guarantee mistakes with a complex disorder like ADHD. My review suddenly flipped my perception. I felt and announced to stunned colleagues that the over-diagnosis of ADHD was “an epidemic of tragic proportions.” Tragic because many kids get the wrong diagnosis and really have a different problem that needs a different treatment: or they are normal youngsters given a treatment they don’t need; or the drugs prescribed for them are given away or sold to other students wanting a quick fix for studying or partying-a reason why schools and colleges now have huge numbers of students using stimulant drugs, and why emergency rooms are increasingly overwhelmed with overdosing youngsters. Alan Schwartz of the New York Times exposed how disease-mongering and ruthless advertising by big Pharma had fed an eager medical system with false data, also capitalizing on the cooperation of unscrupulous “thought leaders” in child psychiatry. Doctors of course bear a lot of the responsibility- prescriptions for stimulant drugs can only come from doctors. Most hard-working primary care or general pediatric practitioners mean well but have too little time to really get to know their patients and too little expertise to be skeptical of misleading Pharma propaganda. I am alarmed to see how even some of my most respected colleagues deny the facts and bury their head in the sand. I recently talked to one of these highly published senior professors who has a “Distinguished Chair of Psychiatry and Genetics” and many publications on ADHD. I asked him what he thought about the New York Times revelations on the role of pharmaceutical companies in promoting over-diagnosis. He said, ‘I really don’t know that much about the numbers; I’m not an expert in epidemiology.’ Well, neither am I, but I know how to tell the difference between studies relying on telephone interviews of parents and those doing an actual meaningful clinical assessment. In today’s ADHD world the detailed family and developmental history has been replaced by word of mouth from parents and teachers and quickie interviews, largely by untrained primary care or general pediatric practitioners. I now believe that ADHD is part of a normal continuum going from very mild restlessness and Inattention to a severe form that requires treatment and skilled diagnostic assessment by well-trained clinicians.”

I would not give up my mental health issues. It's hard to deal with at times, but it's part of me and it's my fed up normal.

This thing of you never know what we're gonna say is so real. My husband constantly says that what I just said to him was random. And I just tell him that is just how my brain works, a lot of random thoughts.

My discussions w/ my son (newly diagnosed), Daughter-in-law who has been struggling to find a doc in a new state, but has been diagnozed for awhile, and another daughter-in-law who was diagnosed this week and jsut started medication, we are talking about the upside to ADHD and my fear of losing what makes me special...

My favourite thing about having ADHD is that nobody gets mad at me when I steal a rubber band from the kitchen! I don't have any fidget toys and one day I couldn't close a zip-lock bag or something and my mom showed me how I can do it with a rubber band, I started fidgeting with it trying to get it on the bag and I realised it was helping me be a bit less hyper at that moment. I ended up bringing a rubber band to school the next day(This was before COVID was a thing) and my teacher noticed I was fidgeting with it and he was just happy I didn't disrupt the lesson with an endless amount of questions. Which reminds me! I think ADHD makes to very inquisitive, because I hyperfocus on the lessons a lot but that also means I have lots of questions so I raise my hand basically every sentence and yes people get mad at me for that sometimes but it also makes me understand the subject a lot better. Nowadays in online lessons I'm either spamming the chat with questions or fidgeting with my rubber band!

I was diagnosed with ADHD in the first grade and in the 10 years since then, I've developed coping skills and discovered parts of myself that I love. My favorite part of my ADHD is that it has contributed to my work ethic. I work super hard to meet the standard of school and my peers, so I figure why not strive for more of I've come this far? I go beyond my disorder and even though it makes certain things difficult (like taking a long time to get work done) often times my classmates will be surprised when I tell them I have ADHD because I'm doing so well. I'm not saying I'm perfect; I'm learning to be okay with that. Btw I've never found a KZread channel discussing adhd and I appreciate this so much!

My favourite thing about the ADHD is that you are always happy of trying new things, explore new things...

I'm aged 42 and have got ADHD since January. Previously I was smart but lazy. I love this transition.
