The thing is … Many people nowadays have ADHD symptoms! There is probably one vitamin or some minerals that are missing in our bodies that might cause those symptoms! That’s probably the root cause of ADHD ! Taking medications doesn’t fix the problem but it only masks the symptoms for a while. Health practitioners gotta dig deeper to find the real cause of this pandemic!

I just got diagnosed at 32 and started on 10mg of XR. The effects instantly changed my life. My social anxiety completely vanished and I’m becoming the extrovert I’ve always wanted to be. I made a new friend and joined a club. Side effects are minimal but I’d rather have those side effects than 25 more years of crippling anxiety, depression, failure, and nonexistent social life. Im using the meds to build a social group and new skills so I have something or someone to keep me grounded if I can’t get access to the meds anymore.

Thank you so much for all these amazing tools! You're an amazing speaker and I managed not to get distracted for the entire vid!

After being diagnosed and medicated after almost 50 years wondering what was wrong, I started crying when the meds kicked in and realizing how easy handling your daily life is for a neurotypical person. It was like playing a video game and changing the settings from nightmare to easy mode. I looked at my unmedicated me and really felt sorry for this person, in this case myself, I could see what this dude was going through. It was a very healing experience. So yeah guys get your diagnosis it is never too late.

I’ve been off medication for about 10 years now. When I was a child I think I was given a horribly high dose and was really turned off of treatment. Since then I’ve been able to do a lot with my life. But I’m married now, with a kid on the way and work has become more intense. I started feeling like I was worthless and that there wasn’t enough time to do all of this and after a speaking with my doctor I almost cried thinking that all the noise and self doubt and frustration for not being able to complete simple tasks could come finally come to an end. It’s crazy listening to this video and hearing so many of your symptoms sum up exactly how I have been feeling. I’m also very grateful that the stigma around adhd has lessened

How I feel that the ADHD medication made me feel was, it was instant motivation. That's something that I have a really hard time to muster up is motivation. I don't want to get out of bed or participate in life. I felt like I had given up.

I'll share a bit of my experience using Vyvanse for my ADD and reading disorder (I use 20mg or 30mg). It works great if you take the vyvanse and immediately start studying/working or whatever task you need to complete, but if u take it and go on youtube you will end up wasting all your time and focus on youtube. You'd have to break that bad habit. To reduce side effects: If u take vyvanse early in the morning WITH FOOD (high protein), then take a capsule supplement of the ayurvedic herb, Ashwaganda, at night time it may help with the anxiety/stress come down effect of vyvanse and help you to sleep. Eating healthy and drinking water will reduce the side effects with headaches and dehydration, which you will likely encounter when first taking the medication. Also, just improving your diet to include foods rich in magnesium like Kale and pumpkin seeds helps a whole lot with reducing the anxiety and insomnia. U can also buy and use some magnesium lotion. Worse thing to do is add a lot of caffeine into the mix cuz that will make u jittery and deplete you of the anti-anxiety minerals and vitamins. U will also have really hard time falling asleep.

Thank you for your advice, very useful tips. I find that we tend to function in all or nothing mode, that's why momentums (which are basically dopamine) keep us moving from a task to another. The hardest thing is to begin Keep it up 🙂

Thank you for your video ❤

I’m about to be assessed at age 61. Life has been getting harder and harder so thanks, this video has given me more hope.

Great job! Never heard about this challenge. I’m starting tomorrow.

Dopamine Deficiency Disorder. DDD

My room is messy, I can't commit to anything, I procrastinate, I always put off essential tasks till the last minute. I've always felt something wasn't right with me but just put it down to me being a loser. Lots of negative self talk and mind always wondering. I've had serious drug addiction and alcohol problems. I'm starting to think It could possibly be ADHD or something.

It’s taking all my will to keep watching this and not getting distracted by something else because this is me, this is where I am.

I have ADHD. I think this is called laziness. Smart people will get very creative in rationalizing it

What medication do u use and what dosage?

what kind of tasks fit to do with adhd? is it like sales and stuff?

Yes this happens all the time

This isn't ADHD, this is normal, stfu

Yes! This is me!!! I get so frustrated when this happens and it annoys me that I feel so upset about it. Do you know any tips to deal with this?

Bruh, that is autism.... Involuntary defiance

Yes, this is called PDA. Neurotypicals call it "Pathological Demand Avoidance". However we neurodivergents more aptly call it "Persistent Drive for Autonomy". We want our autonomy, not someone else's authority. Because it is not often, it seems, we actually remember to do something, and when it's our idea, our motive, and us taking initiative, we're developing on our executive dysfunction, making it more functional. This self prompt gives us more dopamine than being externally prompted. As it has the same mechanism as intrinsic motivation, being our passion or novelty, and extrinsic motivation is associated with chores (aka brain torture). Them telling us what to do and then stalling/moving on to another task looks like demand avoidance, when in reality it just k*lls our motivation since we already were following a strict to do list in our minds which their interruption causes our working memory to falter. And then we get pissed off.

As someone with ASD, ya´ll ADHDers ain’t alone in this. I have had the motivation to complete several tasks I needed to do completely vanish the moment someone else points it out. This has even translated to important life-milestones being delayed due to this phenomenon.

Totally relate to this… ask nicely if I can help, send gentle reminders but do not tell me to do something. I will most likely rebel and not do it or it will take me forever. Wondered if I was just like this with narcissistic people but no seems like a sign of respect and values to me 🤷‍♀️

Hope😅 this is the start of something good for you, It can take a while on RUclips.... You really seem to be really in tune with at least what I've dealt with ...and still do lol.. 58 I'm still treading water ...just barely LOL. Most important thing? sense of humor my man, sense of humor.

Man love this video so informative and detailed it helps viewers understand more about it

Elvanse dont work for me me like that what i get is a seesaw effect less impulsive but sink more into inattention. I find i get more focus and the best pill i have taken for adhd is common or garden ibuprofen.

Interesting

I took vyvanse and hated it. How do you think i could find what works for me?

Ritilin has greatly helped me with this. I feel so well rested on ritlin. I used to get so overwhelmed by so many thoughts that i'd stop and just take a nap which was possible before having kids. It became impossible after becoming a mom and my adhd got worse. Since going on medicine. I haven't had to have naps at all. I still do the natural stuff that helps me too like- omega fish oil, magnesium, vitamin b/c/d are my favs. Gatorade electrolyte is great. Exercise at the gym, LISTS, 20 phone alarms, Coffee in the morning. Trying to sleep on time. But yea... nothing has ever been as helpful as medicine. So calming, such a relief.

Yep, this all the time

That's me.

i program my 22 year old google nest with housekeeping chores and laundry. its annoying but a must

My 22 year old has to get back on meds. im over it!!

I have adhd anxiety bipolar depression, anti social personality disorders and borderline personality disorder. But I use hate my adhd because I use to talk to much and I use get joked for when I was younger. Which made me super angry. I was bullied my whole childhood because I was “different “ I couldn’t focus and when want try in school my brain and body didn’t. My high school years were the worst I had social anxiety and I’m social awkward I tried get out my shell but it didn’t work. Then my anxiety and depression came in and start taking meds but I didn’t want to. Also I overthink 95% of the day. Negative thoughts, suicide ideation and homicide ideation. I made some friends that hang w now and it’s good but I still have bad episodes of my mental illness when I get very angry and get mental breakdown when I want whoever did me wrong to die and I want to kill them. Forgot to mention I’ve been getting fights my whole life. But I’m 20 and do weed as self medication and it helps a lot and weed made me realize realized fuck w ppl think be yourself you’ll love you’re life more when stop caring what others think. (Sorry my misspelling it’s part of my Adhd 😂😂)

I strongly believe that some people lack important levels of dopamine for instance. That explains why ritalin works so well for me and others. Good routines with food, excercising and sleep were never enogue for me to feel ok and normal. Ritalin is a tool to complete other areas in life that simply don’t work out without it. I hear alot of people saying, ”you don’t need medicine, just start going to the gym and do this and do that,” it does not apply to alot of us just because of our abnormal levels of diffrent neurotrancmiter levels. I started eating 40 mg for about two weeks to prepare my body. I read that common side effects were lack of aptite and that is something I really, really not wanted so from my very first pill I started working out, thus avoiding that side effect, also not to feel or look intoxicated by feeling high - you just want that minor but highly noticeable feeling of the medicine giving you that little push. At first I got some side effects but they went away quite quickly. I did not feel the effect of the medicine that much so today we added 20 mg. Again, I want to take as little possible so on 60 mg I feel like it really working. That feeling of relaxement and being able to think and sort your thoughts out is something I value alot. All my life I have not been able to watch any movie without having the urge to have 38 websites active or multi boxing / over think and so on so I am really, really glad and hopeful that I am on the right track to find a good dose that is working long term.

Hey, I was diagnosed with ADHD in Ukraine, but currently I'm based in London. What route would you recommend to get an ADHD assessment here in the UK? People say it might take years in line to get NHS psychiatric appointment...
