That was so heartfelt and real. Well done to Sam 👍I too, suffer from ADHD and it's very...oh, look it's snowing out.. yeahhhhhhhhhhhh

Sam for the win. He's been the most positive and happy person in camp and I really like him.

The only thing Sam deserves to win is an Oscar 😂

Sam’s ADHD will make it very hard for him to organise things e.g. the washing up & running of the camp. He will forget the last action he took and forget the next action he should etc. Focusing on something is hard for him. He is NOT being lazy. It’s actually hard to have ADHD.

This is true. Hence why he do something and jumps to another then he forgets then he do something else again. And people in the camps can't understand adhd. Even in their podcast with Pete. He always make another ad lib or saying something than the ones in the paper cos it was too much.

Sam was involved in a programme a few months ago where he was diagnosed with ADHD. He was so relieved to finally understand why he behaves as he does. Much like when my son was diagnosed as dyslexic at the age of 7, he felt exactly the same and was so relieved that there was a reason for his "disability". BUT, most ADHD/Dyslexics are highly creative/intelligent and fabulous people to be around. They generally also have a high level of empathy and integrity because they obviously know what it feels like to be "dismissed" out of hand by others who think they are better than them, e.g. some of the others in the jungle!

39 years old and I’ve just been diagnosed. Explained my entire life…

thank you so much for posting this

This is like after a rave at an after party in the kitchen or in the bedroom everyone figuring out their true passion for life

Well done Sam. It's been a long time since I've laughed out loud. You are brilliant and you've brought so much happiness and laughter to so many. Enjoy all the attention, you deserve it. Thank you to ALL the contestants, you've all been great

Awwwww Sam he is so lovely and sweet funny endearing. Tony is so good with him too like a big brother.

As somebody also with ADHD as u grow up most people learn to hide the outside (he hasn't he kept that aspect as a kid who jumps around unable to keep still) just if somebody with ADHD don't take it personally if u feel they are ignoring u or whatnot all that energy gets put into their brain and bottled up there instead of outside. Most ppl with ADHD really love talking to people just cant focus i find ppl waving their hand around while talking near their face helps me focus on them more xD.

Sam seems lovely. I was surprised by his medical history especially due to him attending a prestigious private school. Thought he would of been diagnosed sooner.

I feel ADHD is only a condition we have become more aware of in the last 5-10 years. My daughter is now 29. We finally know now she has ADHD. I wish she had been diagnosed when she was at school. Our schools here in Australia 🇦🇺 are having pupils tested and it’s incredible how many have ADHD 💜. It’s a bit like our GP’s are now diagnosing more Diabetics. I’m more aware of this, due to Patients being referred to us for eye tests by their GP’s a part of their care plans 🐨🐨🦘

Sam or Marv to Win! I just love them ooh and Fred

I'm glad he told us. Otherwise we'd never have noticed.

I'm sure I have this after hearing Sam's (very eloquent) descriptions and explanations linked to his diagnosed ADHD. Even his school reports comments he shared that denoted lack of attention/distractions but showing high capability align with my reports throughout school for the most part, with some precision. I think I need to get a diagnosis. I wonder if this would be enough to get help

It’s so easy to label Sam as annoying. And to many, he is. But people need to understand why he is like that and he can’t help having the hyperactive mind that he has.

Ant and Dec don't want anyone to know that they are actually not the best of friends in real life, and that their chemistry on television is mostly an act. They are actually quite different to each other in personality, and don't necessarily get along that well behind the scenes. However, they act professionally and never show this to the public. They are both professional and good at their jobs, and their on-screen friendship is one that they are proud of.

Autism is characterized by difficulties with neurotypical social interaction and communication; and a tendency to self-regulate through repetition and routine (i.e., special interests and restricted, stereotyped, and repetitive behavior). Do we see this with sam?

Blimey, Sam has ADHD? Who'd have guessed? 🙃

I think Sam has done far more damage to the ADHD cause than good. He is portraying the stereotypical view on ADHD (like jumping on people like a human flea for example) and it pisses me right off. Who’s going to employ anyone with adhd after watching him? Also the way Tony, ant,dec and the other camp mates treats him like a child with the old “bless him” condescending patronising attitude is hard to watch (before anyone says “well don’t watch it then I’m watching for Nigel but itv keep shoving Tony and Sam down my throat) it’s especially hard because I have autism and I’ve had to put up with that from people all my life. One example I’ve got a degree and the amount of people who say “ wow *you’ve* got a degree? That’s amazing, well done you” when they find out is a lot more than you think. I can imagine Tony saying that tbh

I get that it must be frustrating to be talked down to about your achievements, but I just think that calling Sam's ADHD traits a "portrayal" is wrong. He has the hyperactive side of ADHD as well as inattentive which naturally means he is more active and hyper sometimes. Thats who he is and I don't think that should be criticized. I think if an employer was smart then they would know that people don't have to be energetic or hyper to have ADHD.

He never acted like that when he was in MIC I’d say he’s annoying little prat and they’re all frightened to say it 😮

@@westhamaremassive8099 understanding differences isn’t “putting up a reason” and nether is it “crying”. Still looks like you are the only one crying though. And avoiding a diagnosis too, are you that desperate to fit in? Does it scare you that you might be different? It’s honestly fine, I cope without crying, in fact I now thrive by understanding myself and others better than I did before. Maybe put your big boy pants on and embrace who you are. It’s not difficult once you know and Sam is only recently diagnosed. Generally people are fine, just a few small minded individuals who think they’re edgy by calling us names or diminishing our diagnosis. But I’m sure you’ll cope 🤣
