I look back and I was diagnosed 12 years ago and truly believe it ruined my life as well bc so many things I still struggle with are adhd symptoms they don't really talk about... I am terrible with opening mail . I really can't stick with a job , since covid I'm even more introverted, I have this bad habit of need to givea back story and side story when explaining something and bc I'm trying to get it all out I tend to stutter which actually has gotten worse . I hate dealing with conflict but I really dislike injustice soo very much .. I have moved so many times you'd think packing would be easy . The ability to find the motivation to do a thing I need to do. Doesn't seem like terrible things but all the time every day. . Turns into so many bad things

I was the same, growing up in a developing country where no one still takes ADHD seriously. One thing I can't wrap my head around is how does anyone with ADHD graduate from high school? Heck, realistically I couldn't get past the 5th grade. Now when I'm 30 and I have figured out how to make things work(without meds), I feel like I can learn anything I put my mind to. But as a kid? No way, I had no idea how to cope, and I quit trying very early on as I felt I was just dumb or something.

Glad to see you’re still at it bro!!

thanks for the vid. im on day 3 and its rough. lol

Good video dude

great video, the tips were incredibly helpful and well explained. it's a shame this video isn't getting more attention. you deserve more subscribers for creating such high quality content keep up the great work

To be perfectly honest, I think the most important part of a diagnosis is KNOWING. I have been lucky enough to simply know that I have ADHD, and instead of meds, I was able to learn how to cope by attacking my source of adhd, predominantly boredom. I have never taken aderol or any other perscription medication to focus, and I successfully made it into college.

How to Ace Your Job Interview: ruclips.net/video/7fBmDdithl4/видео.html

The experience part is the toughest hurdle, especially since a lot of entry level jobs want experience.

Your channel is so underrated, really. A good opportunity to continue to grow could be to make shorts about the topics in your videos, so that people can click to go to the longer form video. That’s a strategy that the channel 3blue1brown uses to make people interested in a soecific math topic. By getting a snippet from a larger and more detailed video and make them come from the shorts feed to the video. It also can give you a more leveled ground with bigger channels.

That’s my story. Diagnosed at 30, 10+ years ago. Then some things didn’t fit ADHD, an under estimated IQ that’s “complex” in my 40s. Now after 4 years later learning about my neuro divergence. I’m self taught Web developer, had made a living with it despite the issues. Lost opportunities, contracts, clients, partners.

Wait, what? After the 100th video Mr Beast will respond to a comment!!? No waaayy. 😅 To be fair, I got a comment on one of my first videos from a 'mr beast' claiming he'd help, but it seemed more like a fake comment / spam rather than a proper one. Who knows? (Enter shrug here) Tbh your videos need more traction. You've got great content, keep it up 😊👍

This film is my history, i feel relieve by not feeling alone anymore

I'm 33 and single and a student. Most of the problems in this video hit me at 24 (my quarter life crisis) already. 30s have actually been more relaxed due to me already seeing it earlier.

Thanks was nervous about taking it

Was diagnosed this year brother....depression, anxiety, cptsd and now adhd life is tough!

I've also been in/out of jobs different reasons as well. I'm actually really happy to be where I'm at currently though. I know I'm capable of holding down a job for long periods of time b/c I've done it before, but for quite a few them, I have quit them except for 2 where 1 was temporary and the 2nd one was just a very weird situation (I wasn't fired, I didn't want to quit at all, and I wasn't laid off)-like I said, a very very weird situation on that one. I have started to attempt to write short stories, but they're more like mini short stories in one (e.g. the second story relates to the first and so on)-not sure if this will help w/my attention span or not, but it seems like this method has been working for me. For other stories, I'd start 1, never finish it, start a new one, never finish it and so on. And it literally became a cycle with me. Ofc, not all, but there are some parents who can be very controlling at times and this isn't to say I'm not thankful for them because I am, but I feel like if I had a bit more independence in terms of making my own decisions as a teenager, then my life would def. be different than what it is now. I think growing up, my mom did allow me to have a bit more independence and freedom than my dad had. Basically, my mom knew where I was and who I'd be with b/c I did live in a relatively safe neighborhood. Also, school-wise, turns out my behavior wasn't the best b/c I didn't know that I had random outbursts in elementary school (I may have still struggled w/communication since I didn't say 1 word till I was 3). I don't remember if they waited for me to start school or not or if they started me when I was able to start. I need to double-check b/c I don't remember if they started my brother right away or not if they waited (either way whoever may have started earlier and/or later-I believe the situation prob. should have been swapped). Turns out I also ignored the consequences of my actions that I had 0 clue that I did as a child.

No joke, I'm 30 too and I've prob. had since I was a child. Idk if I was ever tested again for it in my teen years or not. But I do remember being tested for both ADD & ADHD when I was 7 yrs. old. There was an at-home and at-school version, but idk if anyone thought of anything further because for the school version, I tested in the "avg.-normal," range, but on the lower avg. range for it bordering "at-risk" for it. I think multiple situations factored into this, but after someone who will always feel like a little sister to me ended her friendship w/me, it made me realize just how much hatred I had not just for myself, but my own life too & this because of what my parents have said to me in my past and rather than actually helping me, all they did was say words & 1 day I finally told my mom most of the truth. I admit that I never made the best decisions esp. financially either, but it also doesn't help when your parents are constantly criticizng (or what some may view as criticism) for the decisions you've made. This can make anyone with any type of learning disability feel worthless and incapable of doing anything to some level. Idk how old I was, but I did learn how to be Independent. The only thing: I just don't live on my own yet, but it doesn't mean I'm not any less independent. And me not living on my own = Ik that's 100% my fault, but I don't need constant reminders of those past mistakes I've made. Another thing too: Inflation + Price Increases never help anything, either. Honestly, and idk if it's pride thing with me or what it could be and I know I'm lucky enough where the real estate test could get paid for for me, but that's something I'd love to be able to save up for (sadly, there was a huge price increase for both the exam and license). Idk want to give up studying real estate for multiple reasons, but at the same time, financial reasons are a reason why I'd give up on it...but at the same time, that means I literally wasted over $300 on real estate courses for absolutely nothing. And I've been studying for abt. 1 1/2 - 2 yrs. now & the main reason it has taken me this long is solely b/c of financial reason since I didn't have say the best type of job within most of the last year alone.

This so resonates for me and yet I am completely dumbfounded by the contrast and opposites between your experience an mine. For the life of me, I could not managed to get my homework done and I would sit for hours in front of it getting ten percent of what I needed to do finished. In first grade, the first thing we did in class was copy a sentence off of the blackboard. It took me until first recess and the teacher had another student stand at the board. After all the kids have moved and point to the next word that I needed to copy because I couldn't keep focused and keep track of where I was. Listening was no problem learning and showing up to class was no problem. I aced tests even though I took a little bit longer than everybody else to finish And I got c's and d's because I didn't get any homework done. I graduated late with a D+ average and went on to community college. I totally thrived in college because I could choose what to study and could study what interested me. It took me a while to realize I could do the reading because it was subject matter. I was actually interested in but I still only did a portion of it because I was a slow reader. I not only made it through college but got into graduate school and became a psychologist. I failed the first quarter of my internship because it was a psychological testing rotation patient and I had to write evaluation reports. I could not discipline myself to get the work out to the point that I nearly failed internship. Anyway, I am an inattentive type.And I don't know if that has anything to do with the differences between you and me. We tend to be a different breed. I admire the hard work you had to do to compensate for your deficits. I couldn't imagine doing the same. I think yours was the harder path. But good on you for the sheer effort you had to put in to adapt tool world that isn't set up to deal with how your brain works.

For the 99.9%, RUclips growth is definitely not linear it’s not easy to be consistent for a long time Your content overall is so underrated imo I hope you get monetized soon!

Such a good video dude. I genuinely followed the same path as you. I thought I would be a millionaire within 12 months, and genuinely thought the algorithm had a personal vendetta against me. I was so focused on views that I would become so angry when I would post a video and it wouldn’t take off. I would check my views and subs every 20 minutes, hoping for some algorithmic miracle I haven’t had a video pop off either man, but I genuinely respect you and your journey, and as cliche as it sounds, I think you deserve more views. Thanks for making this video, it took so much mental stress off of myself, knowing that I am not the only one going through this. I look forward to seeing you make it in the future bro!

Good stuff boss

Well myself I got diagnosed at 45 and I am even more depress now. I lost so many years thinking I was broken. It was even worst because I suffer from anxiety and OCD as well.. for the past two years I tried different techniques and nothing worked but just realized I was working again my adhd and not use it. Now I am doing better but thinking almost 50 and no success in life what a wasted life. Any ideas how to work with your adhd and not against it?

I wish I was dead

You're giving me hope! I'm in the early weeks still adjusting to dose increase.

Found out at 47 .. felt bad .. but then thought about some people who didn't even make it to that Age.. and i was grateful

Same same now i am 40 and i wish i can turn back the time of my life so offten... The say to you as an kid adhd its over with geting adult...but thats wrong its always there !! and you older you get so much more problems coming ... Depressionen.. relations Broke...drugs.. Jobs Lose....money problems..not normal life ... and and much worster is coming

Unfortunately, here in Czechia, getting a diagnosis in adulthood is damn near impossible. I tried, but it seems I'm all alone in this shit.

I’m still new at RUclips - but I’ve noticed most of my subscribers are coming from RUclips shorts. You can use Opus Clip to chop up your videos and add captions. Just an idea for your channel. Keep it up!

As a new RUclipsr this is great information. Appreciate the heads up!

I love the Mr Beast, make a hundred video's clip. Its like setting an impossible target. Well done on getting there. Yep, even monetized, its pennies st our stage. Ive clocked up about £35 in 9 months. Doesnt pay out until £60 😂 You've got to want to do it, for the sake of doing it alone It's building blocks for a future venture for me. I am aiming for quality creative pieces to learn new skills with each video.

Mine too

Your channel is really coming along. I’m sure you’ll be monetized by the end of summer. Congrats on 101 videos. 🎉

You know what, I remember a year in college, Adhd + depression was so intense I was the only one failed in an open source exam 😥 Now I understand why.

I think it's happening bro, U just popped up on my feed. Congrats on ur 101st!

I’ve been really struggling for the past year or so and didn’t know why. I burnt out last year trying to maintain 2 full time jobs. I didn’t finish what I needed to so after a short break I returned to what I needed to do. I’m doing the same this year and for the past 2-3 months I’ve hit the lowest point. Sad thing is no one knows because I just mask it. Your video and others have defined what’s going on and I think it gives some clarity atleast for me to reach out to the doctor and a mental health support company. I’m waiting for an appointment but maybe this will be the start of me seeing joy again? Thank you.

I made an absolute career change, moving from a high-pressure web dev job to teaching middle school English. Best move of my life (I dropped 70 lbs and was taken off blood pressure meds), I'm peeking in on 40 now. I finally feel like I've got a good bearing on what I'm doing.

You could be a consultant teaching people how to make videos and sharing everything you’ve learned from your experiences

You’re doing great man. These are fantastic videos. Respect 🙌

Thank you. This video gave me a boost of motivation and inspiration. You helped more my day, and my path, to be more blessed. Bless you, man. You're incredible. Keep doing what you do and keep being you.

Welcome to your 30s

I wasn’t to make my RUclips channel but , ya I get sucked into shorts lol

Blake you deserve millions of views! Your videos get better each upload and you're so consistent with uploads! Keep it up

Don’t give up making videos, you have all the key elements for success. Just keep on uploading

I love your editing style

Great video. You actually convinced me to schedule some exercise time. I don't understand why you don't get more views. Well, this time, I kind of understand because, well, *exercise*, but in general. Keep up the great work!

My Mom pushed hard for assistance for me. Finally my last semester of community college my psychology teacher would let me write long papers than multiple choice tests. There were no aids in 90s to 2000's. I respect your thoughts because you got tested. I got tested and the psychiatrist said it was 7 of 9 on the evaluation. What is your job now? I found living overseas was a cure for 7 years. Now I'm back to America and 7 years now I strongly dislike all of my jobs except i did manage to stay at 1 job for 2+ years because my best friend was my boss and I had lots to lose or lots to prove. Plus it was a new thing and new research and things are fun. I'm approximately 10 years and change older than you. I thought ADD was a fad in HS and because I already have a neurological condition that requires me to take 💊 pills. I didn't want to add more pills to my life. I always had ideation into my 30s but not dangerous because i was loving life in my 30s due to living overseas. Its not like you can cancel the thought but they certainly didn't happen as often. I left due to the recession. It took me 10 years to graduate college but part of it is i had to pay for my last 2 years of college. I couldn't do work and school at the same time. Life was rough. The last 3 years have been shifty and I really want to just fly away. Wasting money isn't cool, another good reason i was in Asia for 7 years. No distractions to purchase things other than random food. Im unsure if I should start taking meds, but probably should because the last 2.5 ears have been miserable. I think the pandemic took something i was managing by intuition to life just being awful. Especially in this economy. Rubbish.
