Depression can affect a person's sleep, appetite, energy levels, and overall quality of life. It is important to seek professional help if you are experiencing symptoms of depression, as there are various treatments available, including therapy and medication. Remember, you are not alone, and there is hope for a better life with depression.
Seems like 99% of people have ADHD and on meds for it...
I am not only happy am alive but also glad that "DrMadida" was able treat and cure me with his herbal medication of my parosmia, Meniere disease and Parkinson disease(PD) with their herbal treatment🌿🌿.
it comes down to detachment, causes suffering…😇
I am 64 and got Diagnosed with ADD age 60, but have had it all my life. My Dr. suggested Adderall, but I am familiar with the side effects of Amphetamines, and this would be worse than the actual ADD itself, so I declined. I think my ADD is getting worse as I get older.
NAN.CY diagnosed him.
I got diagnosed with ADD 18 years ago as a teenage. Spent my whole life fighting ADD. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 9 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, 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 Australia. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them
YES very sure of Dr.benfungi. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
100% agree I used to have Psychosis and paranoid thoughts like "people thinking about me talking about me etc. Very odd behavior after getting off Adderall from 7-16. Antidepressants at 18-29. 31 now. I took way to much, but took about 20g of Gold caps (Psilocybin containing mushroom) I analyzed my entire life. The emotions that came out helped me understand behavior etc more. Wont ever need to do it again because I'm happy and contempt forever, but I wish more people did this to alter their perception of reality. Would help with healing much trauma
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
I am 3-4 Pakistanis
Did your brain surgery help you to realise that blonde bombshell lovers weren’t blonde?
This is what I needed to hear. I've been spinning. Maybe I have something to dedicate my life to. Adhd awareness.
Awe!! Andy Barrie 🙏 ❤😢 bless your heart! You are not alone!! So brave to speak about this crappy dis-ease. We lost our old capable bodies and minds. But you are still you!!! Still loved!❤ I had DBS 15 months ago. Less meds, more on time. Noticed my symptoms at age 45.. Pray you are well in 2024 Andy. ❤
Gobsmacked! Prisoners of Gravity was my most favourite show! I would not have guessed that Rick was suffering from ADHD no more than realizing that I have it too. I was diagnosed a week ago Monday. Similar to Rick, I found a job that I loved and had greater success than I had ever dreamed, but my life outside of work was a shambles. Now that I know, it is a relief. I am in the process of getting help. Rick is my hero!
😊 I have ADD😂😂😂😂
why in the fuck is there a pride flag behind him 🤢
Not a pride flag, it’s called a blanket.
Man I’m just figuring out that I most likely have it. I’m excited but also pretty down about it. I can’t wait to try the meds but also worried other people will look at me differently. I’m excited that at work I’ll finally be able to remember my task or the measurements for the cad file that I need to change. I hate finishing peoples sentences or interrupting others. I hate going to my room to look for something and by the time I get there I forgot what I was getting. I love to tinker with electronics and 3d printing. I 3d printed an awesome bmw car shell and build the chassis and everything but it’s been two years almost and I still have a few finishing touches that I can’t get myself to finish. When I finally feel like I’m close to finishing a project I lose all interest and motivation :( . And man Amazon loves my impulsive spending
Yes! I always used the analogy of telling someone in a wheelchair they just need to walk. Try harder. Get disciplined. They're just sitting there feeling sorry for themselves and making excuses.
I had rtms by Dr. Downar. It didn’t work for me. I then tried ketamine prescribed by Jonathan, which I could not tolerate due to vomiting. I got it prescribed in liquid then pill form. It didn’t do anything for my suicidal depression. I wonder why I didn’t get prescribed something for the extreme nausea/vomiting it causes; swallowing my own vomiting repeatedly was certainly unpleasant. My reflection was that it makes you need to urinate and vomit at the exact same time and you can only choose one. I chose urinating and swallowing my own vomit. It was insanely unprofessional but as was the entirety of the six years I was overseen at Toronto Western Hospital, which culminated in a heart attack brought on by psychiatric meds practically maxed out on my 120lb frame. He’s a fraud as are the rest employed there.
This world's system is bullying us all. We arent made for 9/5 9/7 jobs and monthly payments. It feels like a prison life. We are made for constant discovery, spreading the information or creation without hassle and moving on to the next task continuously. We are the people of randomness, who wants to give to the world and deserve receiving back but not like sticking to one regimen only. Thats not an illness, thats a variation of being..which cant stand boredom of strict systems. modern day's systems dont make sense to us and thus, we cant offer much and cant receive back from world. Thats crazy.
Believe it or not 'you don't need a crutch' is more or less what I was told when my severe myopia was diagnosed at age 8.
I think this is all bullshit made up by pharma corporations to push more product. ADD ADHD OCD all of it . Everyone operates differently just find the niche they fill and let them at it.
I woke up from a coma in Saint John, NB in 2005 a quadriplegic. Half ,y brain got destroyed and I lost about 40% of my blood. I awoke miraculously and regained the ability to walk 3 months later, I proceeded to recover completely without prescription drugs and the barest minimum of medical aid. Prescription drugs don't work.
Institute? You even do not now the difference between adhd versus add.
I lost my attention.
F*ckin hell.. What a hero! I think he is still struggling with it a bit, but everyone does constantly. What a way to cope with so much prejudices and opinions. Lots of respect for this guy!! ✌🏼💪🏻👌
“”Jayden’s warmup” in the musical brought tears to my eyes. THATS how you incorporate all types.
What an amazing, dedicated, and proud father. So great to see.
I got ADD,MDD,Bipolar depressive disorder. And a heart condition WPW life with mental problems is hard, but it makes us very unique. I can't have adderall or a stimulant to help with my ADD. My wpw won't allow it, so I try to stay motivated and happy and take my meds. Just remember it does get better.
that's definately worth than ADHD. My best wish of life just to reach the meds for it, can't get job I really want here in Ukraine
I'm just here because of the Red Green Show.
for someone that has ADD, this doesn't help me at all.
Hey!, keep up the work. From what you said, I think you will be interested this channel 👉 #drjohnaking. I find him informative, yet down to earth.
Does anyone with Adhd or ADD deal with any stigmas from other people I feel like it's only me
Here me too 🥺💔
I'm tired of reading about ADHD. Like seriously, ADD and ADHD have different symptoms but people confuse the 2 all the time. As somone who suffers from ADD symptoms I cannot find a video that talks about ADD and its treatment without mentioning ADHD and acting like they're the same thing!
EXCELLENT PRESENTATION
Rick and Patrick = heroes, lifesavers. I don't know why they don't have top medals from their government - some medal of freedom or whatever. It took real effort, real caring about others no matter what anyone thought of them to do what they did - come forward to the world about this. That program literally changed my life. KNOWING is power, knowledge is power. You can't fix it, but knowing the why or how of something gives you at least some power over it. Asking for help takes guts. Rick gave me great power. Fixed? No. And in my case, even some of the highest doses of things only do so much (diagnosed with severe ADHD by a neuro-psychologist (or however it's spelled). Severe. All involved said "I have NO doubt you have........" Couple it with what I've come to call the "Sheldon Cooper syndrome" where you have zero patience for those who can't keep up or who can't see what I see or know what I know (due to high IQ according to school psychologist) and you have a double-whammy. Even without ADHD, I'd have no social skills and would be impatient with those who can't figure something out. Add severe ADHD and you are at the end of your rope - then you see their program on PBS and suddenly............ now I know and have tools and can ask for help with things.
Im trying to figure out if I got ADD, and I'm thinking I do because have lost interest in this, great video though
I am 49.5 years old, and just found out I have ADHD. I read testimonies and watch videos and just cry because I still remember all the times people treated me badly for what I said and not understanding why because I was trying to be nice, engaging or understanding and they thought I was rude. Not understanding why I can't tell my husband, boss, etc how I feel without crying. And now it's like heavens have been opened and I see the light. RICK I'm from Minnesota and have watched Red Green for 30 years, and just THANK YOU for helping others understand ADHD and making us all laugh with your gift.
Know exactly how you feel. 51 and just finding out all about why my life has been how it has and sad that people treated me the way they have over the years
I was told the same thing. You don’t have ADD it’s OCD and Anxiety! Because that’s what I was diagnosed with as a child. I struggled for 30 years and I’m gonna get therapy if it’s the last thing I do….
6:14
Thank you for validating me. I’ve always been “gifted” but have always “not met my potential.” It’s so fulfilling to know not only is it not my fault, but other people experience the same thing!
story of my life and I am 64 now. I used to hate myself for this until I was diagnosed with ADD age 60, after watching a Gabor Matte youtube video, he was the same.
Thankyou for this ❤️
The title said ADD not ADHD..
Seriously?? Really?? ADHD is ADD with the hyperactivity. 6 of one, half a dozen of the other. If you have ADHD, you have ADD but you can have ADD without being so hyper. Might do a little research on it before critiquing........... Some schools of thought also say there are further sub-types of ADD.
you are a suicidal pathetic loser brainwashing weak people, sir George Frederic Still came up with ADD out of his damn ass where he practiced his imaginary protocols. you are a scumbag Mr. Green and will BURN IN HELL!!!
Thanks for sharing your story Girl you are so awesome👍
I want so much to understand why my life has turned out so badly, compared to what I wanted. I'm a smart man. I did well in school all the way to Grade 13. I was at the top of my class in accounting in college. But I struggled to get through university, and graduated with just enough of an average to get an Honours BA degree. My memory sucks. The quality of my work sucked before the Covid shutdown. And from my earliest memories, I have felt like I am just a spectator in my own life.
I was diagnosed with ADD 15 years ago as a teenager. But I never saw it as a disadvantage. For example when I enter a room I've seen everything, even the colour of the ceiling, missing the main subject cause there are a shitload of new impulses and everything is more interesting than the thing you have to do. You know 'normal' people don't have this, use it in your advantage, and focus exists if the subject is interesting enough.
I am 50 at the end or this month and it's finally sunk in this is why the way I am...I am now who I own. I'm seeing the doctor tomorrow to get a referral to see a professional about it.
Oh man!!! "You don't have ADHD, you just need to focus more!!"... That's the crux of the whole thing, he nailed it!! When I was young I couldn't imagine other kids seriously making more effort to foucus harder I could see some were simply brighter, no problem. But my mom and dad would say "you need to make more of an effort"... And I wanted to by it's hard when there si not one train-of-thoughts but countless ones an you keep jumping from one to another. I really felt the emotion at the end, by the way. Luckily my life went a bit smoother. My wife learnt to live with it, but she does prompt me to have a focus when it's needed. I have medication which I don't take every day but it does help.
As someone who's pushing almost five decades living on this planet with cerebral palsy, I feel I'm qualified to say that, too often, the way people in society treat you, be it family, "friends", medical professionals, government bureaucrats, employers and co-workers, is WORSE than having cerebral palsy.
Larry, you have a great story to tell. We are impressed, on a daily basis, with your abilities, focus, and great disposition. We hope to share your story with Canadian employers as to the potential of persons living with neurological conditions and the need for inclusive policies in their hiring policies.
