Living with ADHD
Просмотров 26 тыс.16 лет назад
An 11 year old reads a speech that describes what it's like to live with ADHD. Of interest to teachers,parents and people with ADHD.
Everyone treats me like an idiot like a little kid I can handle a but of it as a joke but sometimes it feels like I'm just a brat they have to take care of I hate it I just want to be treated seriously
I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was in kindergarten How the doctor 👨🏾⚕️ knew My mom was surprised 😮 when I kept on getting bad grades in kindergarten because I couldn’t focus on things that didn’t interest me for a long time. Also I kept moving in these ways -kicking my feet nonstop -shaking (not like shivering) -kept on moving you upper body part like, head, hands 👐🏾, arms, and I would always fidget With me pencil ✏️ and got it token away from me everyday.
I know how u feel I also have ADHD
i have adhd
I agree with this completely. what I don't understand is why no one ever talks about ADD. it's just adhd without the hyperactivity. I was diagnosed with add last year. honestly, I'm not any different from anyone else. if someone didn't know I had add they would never even guess. I truly don't get why it's such a big deal. I only have a bit of trouble focusing sometimes.
got bored after 50 seconds
You welcome and if you need anything else I'm here for you and don't be afraid to show people who you truly are.^^
@TheSpirosChrist: I'm not sure on how you can disagree with one child's insights into her own mind and how this helps her describe her ADHD to others, but okay. Feel like elaborating?
Also for the love of god Never take concerta ever.
Nah I completely disagree with this video.
The one thing that sucks about ADHD is the low esteem. It is our Achiles' heel. It can hinder us, effecting us through out our lives, or make us great.
So what If you have ADHD its not a big deal its part of you, and about your friends so what if you talked or did whatever you do who cares. If your friends really love you they will except you for who you really are.
What hurts about having ADHD is that nobody understand how people with ADHD feel or thats what I think. What made me think like that is that the society I live in view ADHD people as if they were abnormal people not normal; and the worse thing is we must hide that we have ADHD from people we know. I ask myself this question everyday Why do I have to hide who I really ? I'm proud of who I am so why should I hide it. The worst part of all that is your parent saying that they are ashamed of you
Thank you for posting this I enjoyed it! I hated that label.. Felt very distanced as a child.. Then all of a sudden everyone was like omg you're so advanced. Yet I was persecuted for years as a failure because I did not fit into the American PC perfect definition of "normal". Which I always felt was (slow) less than everything I could give.
We're highly creative people who want to enjoy life in a demanding stiffened world.
that's how I feel all the time and I have ADHD
Excellent!
does any1 think we shuld b able to talk to each other on a website so we can express how we feel and ways we can control it????
I have adhd and I know how u all feel
Great work, very good writing..
Now thats how I should feel!!!
Thank you Cordilia! My son has ADHD and this brightened my day! Thank you Thank you!! Hope you are doing well!
Cordelia. Massive video. I /teach teenage chlildren with ADHD and other "conditions". I see things as you describe them in your video; but not as clearly as do you. It is a comfort to & a resource for me, to now have your narrative on "details". When working I have a laptop with music, photos & useful stuff, which students can trawl through as they want to, and your video is going to be something they can access; maybe I should see it as an ADHD jukebox. Going to let English teacher see it too.
Thanks , wish we had an insurance system . the very thing we need help in keeps us from getting help . Good luck to those with poor support groups we'll need it *_*
@ldhansen1 (continued from previous response) personal knowledge/ experience. Thanks, Cordelia
@ldhansen1 Hi I am Cordelia. I am glad you enjoyed my video, and would be happy to answer your questions. 1. I wrote the script, with help from my mom. 2. I originally made this for a school speech, and my mom turned it into a video for a course that she was taking. I wrote it in hopes that presenting it in front of people, would help them to better understand me. 3. I don't remember the sources I used for celebrity names or the number of children it effects, but everything else is from personal
@newzillah unless you are deaf
It's supposed to mirror that feeling of information and sensory bombardment. The busy transitions aren't by accident. Try not watching and only listening. Maybe that will help.
holy crap slow down the transition, I have adhd I dont read that fast!
@xoxoKyoko Hi I'm Cordelia. My mom responded to your video, but I wanted to as well. You shouldn't be afraid to talk to your parents, ADHD is far from any sort of defect. if anything your parents should be more understanding than anyone. If it helps, you can show them this as well as other ADHD videos. That may help them understand what it is like for you. Of course you can talk to your teacher, S/he should also be understanding, and has probably met others with ADHD, and will understand you. Tx
@nipigongirl1234 Hi I'm Cordelia I am glad you liked my speech, but the only research I did was to be clear on the specifics (eg. names of people with ADHD). Research on ADHD messes with peoples minds. Doctors and scientists think they know what it's like to have ADHD, but unless they have it themselves, the might as well tell you they can fly. Take it from me, and I am sure that many other ADHDers will agree, only if you personally have ADHD, are you really capable of understanding what it is.
@newzillah I agree totally. If someone with ADD or ADHD has depression and you add a level of concentration to that, the effect and result IS death. If someone has a lack of attention, the result is a lack of self-achievement and can result in death. I was a lucky one who got saved on the brink of starvation who had run out of successful options. I don't believe in suicide but the road I was traveling just stopped. No ground, no sky, nothing.
Very well done
Mellons to make paper and I cud flill those also o typed this all on iPod touch
Hi ,I'm Jamie I'm 12 and living with ADHD and I'm on medication... So I thought today I havin no medication... And now it's 2 : 57 in uk am and I'm still awake but now thAnks to u I'm now stuck with those words... I highly thank you for them and the video...! Also if I did write down all my thoughts I would need more than 1 piece of paper. How's about chopping down all the trees in da world. Make paper and I could fill those also u cud Make paper from dried strawberry and sweetened so much mel
I'm 22, I was diagnosed with ADHD at a fairly early age and I've never used medication. All I can say is that I feel this video is so unbelievably accurate to my perception.. especially growing up!
Very great speach. In school I always have trouble listening because I am always creating pictures into my own world but I don't know why. You must have done some good reaserch!!!!!!!!!
Will Smith u kidding , Robin Williams yah but , woooo cool . This is great ur great Iv been told by a doctor that I have ADHD so I do know what ur saying u must be bless with great parents , I inve u and hope that u take care of those who love u be happy my ADHD sister ^_^
I don't think there is an 11 year old on the planet that wants to sit in school. That's natural. Obviously that alone isn't ADHD, but a lot of parents would like to believe that. "My kid hates school, give him drugs!"
Alarindris I LOVED SCHOOL. At any age. Was it frustrating for me at times? Sure - I wasn't diagnosed with ADHD until my mid-thirties, but everything this girl wrote rang true - I was lucky to be placed in a "magnet" program for "gifted" students by 3rd grade, which I now realize was barely a step up from "busing", but nonetheless, I had a lot more freedom & encouragement to be creative from a very young age in school and I'm sure that helped - I've never had to summarize a novel. Analyze a theme, sure. But to have to write a summary just to prove I read the book? That's lousy, lazy teaching undoubtedly prompted by lousier, lamer policies. But even w/all the difficulties I had sitting still, the impulses to do stuff, the kids who teased me, my parents who just ignored me - I still loved going to school. I loved drama class, and writing stories, and playing foursquare at recess, and I LOVED that I had some GREAT teachers who reached out to me, and some great friends who loved school, who loved learning - who loved reading stories that inspired art projects, science and math projects like teaming up to build a suspension bridge that could hold the most weight, and in social studies and theatre class, we got to work with Saint George and the Dragon and A Midsummer Night's Dream, how I loved to write my own versions of Greek & Roman mythology for creative writing - and this was all between 4th and 6th grade! I hated going home - where we had to tiptoe around my dad's temper, or my mom's crying, or just getting yelled at for "being bad" - I was a nerdy 11 yr old girl who loved reading, writing, playing the piano and basketball, and even went to a sleepaway camp at UVA in Charlottesville, VA, where I stayed in the dorms and took classes like "The Japanese Humanities" and "The Physics of Motion"... and I knew lots of kids who wanted to go to that camp but didn't get in... So I think that saying "what 11 yr old LIKES to go school?" is not the right question. Most 11 yr olds are IN school, so most 11 yr olds want to be with their peers... If an 11 yr old REALLY despises going to school? You've got a much deeper issue on your hands.
i sooooooooo know what your talking about
Hey, Kyoko. How about talking to your teacher first and seeing if s/he thinks it might be possible. If so, s/he can call a meeting with your parents and you can explore the idea together. From there, you might be referred to a psychologist or psychometrist and your teacher and parents would be asked to fill out a survey to determine if ADHD is the diagnosis or not. Depending on your age, you might be asked to fill out a survey too. Let us know how it goes. Good luck.
hmm good video me is adhd too, but i think you could also describe the hypersensitive from adhd and the impulsivitiv little bit more :) we haven't adhd. we are adhd
im 16 and have always had ADHD and that was the most amazing desription ive ever heard its so right and the part about school is so right on i would never be able to describe it like that they way you did was so amazing
Nope - I'm the mom of the 11-year old. You asked me, right? I'll let her know that you wrote though in case she has more to add, okay?
... for some. If medication is a route you take, be sure you're being closely monitored by your doctor. Some ADHD meds can have such surprising side effects and it's so individual to the person as to what helps, what hinders and what may produce undesired side effects.
Hi animelubbor432. Hmmm... I'd never want to play doctor on that one. If you think you have some of the signs, though, it'd be worth talking to your own doctor who could provide you and your loved ones / teachers some checklists to screen for possible ADHD or other learning challenges that you might be up against. It sounds like whether you do or don't have ADHD, some of the strategies that help people with ADHD might help you too. Definitely look into it for your own peace of mind.
I have A.D.D TAKE ADDERALL IT WORKS!!!
i have ADHD but no one knows but my family so everyone thinks that im weird and retarded
apersonroom123, don't forget that people with ADHD are the kings and queens of multi-tasking! They are the movers and the shakers in this world. Don't beat yourself up. - Cordelia's mom.
