Farhaneh AhMeD HELP IVE TRIED ALL MY LIFE I CANT GET As I HAVE EXAMS IM A FUCKINH LOSER WHO ONLY KNOWS HOW TO PRINT PEOPLE ONTO PAPER WITH MY HANDS IM A SKILLESS FUCK PLEASE HELP ME THE MEDS STOPPED WORKING TWO MOMTHS IN SOMEONE GET A DOCTOR IVE ALSO GOT ANXIETY DISORDER SO THIS DOESNT HELPPPPPP
Farhaneh AhMeD I just found out I have it 2nd day on adderal
Here
Classic FeatherPen You’re not a loser brother I know how you feel. I may not know you but I believe in you, you can do great things stop doubting yourself you are capable of anything it’s all in the mind adhd is tough try your best at school everything will be okay
HEREEEE
People always say "oh everyone has adhd" and its so annoying to hear that all the time when you actually struggle with it everyday. Just because you are forgetful and you daydream doesnt mean you have adhd. People really dont understand how hard it is for us.
You're absolutely right. Not everyone who might show a few symptoms of adhd/add doesn't mean they have it. Some neurotypicals don't understand how our brains work and prob never will, which is okay by me as long as they don't come off as a jerk about it; we're Neurodivergents by nature, very extraordinary people. I self diagnosed myself this year and it's really great to know there are others out there like me who think the same way I do and knowing that I'm not alone is calming to me. (Just saying this outloud is so liberating 😭)
@@AngelinaSkylove_719 You literally just contradicted yourself. You said just because you have a few symptoms doesn’t mean you have it then proceeded to say you self diagnosed yourself within the next sentence. How many times do we have to tell you people? A SELF DIAGNOSIS IS NOT A REAL DIAGNOSIS
‘Us’? Dude stop with the bullshit
I'd hug my ADHD and live happily but this fkn system don't let me be
I have ADHD, anxiety and depression. It's so hard but I have great grades in school. It's bad because I'll be depressed then the next second I'll be hyper then the next second I'm just numb, no emotions. It sucks but I'm starting to get through it.
your not alone I'm just like you
I can completely relate. Depression is the worse part :(
You can do it man! Keep your head up we're all cheering for you.
Cameron bowe I can relate. It's amazing when u have adhd. no offence to those who don't
how do you get through?
the more i try the it gets worst
"attention disorders can not only be controlled, but also overcome" LMAO this was definitely written by someone who doesn't have adhd
Some people actually CAN control it eventually; my brother hasn't had problems since his early 20s and no longer needs ritalin
@Stephanie McLaren you can outgrow many ADHD symptoms because it’s a developmental disorder but you can’t outgrow the entire thing. He probably just outgrew most of his symptoms, I’m sure he still has them though.
Learning to adapt, is in a way overcoming no?
@@SweetLoad69 people with adhd learn what works for them to help them cope better. But they don’t “overcome” anything because their adhd is still there
we constantly have to prove our existence, adhd is real its not something u just turn off lol
I think this goes to show that women go under the radar being diagnosed with ADHD. A lot of the time, their symptoms aren't obvious & typical in hyperactivity, but more-so to themselves i.e. uncontrollable, racing thoughts.
And black people!
How the fuk did a video on ADHD become about women's pretend oppression? 😑
Adventures of Malia exactly! What a lame video
TheJadedLightworker when you treat the world as a MEN problem, where only men are inspiring or meaningful, wonder why THAT’S OPPRESSIVE TO WOMEN...
@@lissaajz Well the best of every category are men. I'm not trying to be dragged into your victimized boy vs girl competition but that's the truth.
Is it ironic that I am watching this when i'm supposed to be studying?
lol, same
LOL SAME
Swagron Lol same!!
Same
Swagron don't worry. I watched these videos while I am in college.
Although ADHD is the reason most of my friends hate me... it's nice to know there are others who feel better than me.
Chibi Umbreon dude you need to get new friends,we don't have that 2 second warning...can't be blamed for that
Chibi Umbreon same with me
Chibi Umbreon true friends wouldn't hate you for something like ADHD. Get new friends, who won't judge you. All the best 🙂
Chibi Umbreon then they arent friends right?
Why would they hate you because of it? How could they hate you because of it?
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a challenging disorder that many people face, it's so great to know that there are people out there that have turned it from a grievance to a gift.
This gift requires a lot of reinforcement. By age 30 you have a 30%-40% lag compared to someone with out ADHD. I won't see it as a gift. It's a disorder.
@@z018246 I agree. ADHD may have made me “interesting” and it did give me some superpowers like hyperfocus, but for how difficult it is to manage my emotions or how easily angered I can be by little sounds because of sensory issues? It’s a disorder
@@ciocio-san I big time recommend. Dr Russel about ADHD on RUclips. People trivialize this disorder and make videos like this. He makes ADHD as real as it gets plus ways to help yourself.. I cross my fingers you'll check out a video or two and let me know what you think :)
@@z018246 yoo guys. Dont ever victimize urself. As a hood survivor, undiagnosed adhd survivor, university surviver and graduate. Worst thing to do is victimize yourself. I was down for 2 days after really believing I have adhd now and trying to accept it. After finding out shaq has it, and he is one of the most personable people, and someone like bill gates who became SO successful, it just proves that you can go hard still. Be fit, be loved, be happy, be successful. Dont focus on the failures and just keep it pushing, not trying is the worst cope strategy. Also pray, ramadan is coming up, change your whole life and try it. Its everything dr berg speaks about and more. The health benefits and mental benefits are wild. Also lets be real, stop watching haram videos and your adhd decreases by a lot in 3 days. Try it and tell me im lying.
I’ve lived with ADHD all my life. I would get in trouble in school all the time and my grades were poor. I felt stupid. It was so bad that I didn’t have the confidence to go to college after I graduated. I remember being 25 & working a dead-end job. During a lunch break, while in a book store, I overheard someone who was my age stated that he had just finished his MBA. That was the turning point. The next week I went and did research on top professions for people who have ADHD and it was Marketing.
At age 25, I went back to school and graduated with two degrees.
At 36, I now make a six-figure salary in marketing.
Yours is a success story and model for many people ; thanks for sharing.
What exactly do you do if i may ask? I have ADHD and i was also in marketing, sales to be precise and i definitely learnt some skills but the pressure was too much for me.
Wow Sir! Your story's really inspiring!
Could you tell us more please
:(
I'm currently a student in Marketing!
@@cerveauy8782 That's awesome! Remember this: the school will only teach you about 1% of what you need to know. Your on-the-job training will teach you about 40%. For the rest of it, you will learn from reading books, watching videos, and learning from other people in the industry all on your own dime. Most people with ADHD have a built-in superpower for Marketing! You think fast and can naturally read people - remember to use that to your advantage!
@@mariomendez316 Thank you for the great sharing you did, but I wonder are you good at numbers? If not, how do you deal with data analysis or other statistic related to Marketing?
I’ve always struggled with ADHD. It’s been such a struggle to hold a job, relate to people and getting everyday task done from start to finish. This video makes me feel a bit better that I’m not alone
It was so weird when i finally looked up the symptoms of ADHD for the first time. I knew i had it, its just nobody really told me about it and when i started learning about it i felt a lot better about myself and i didn't feel like i was stupid or anything like that
You should never self diagnose just because you have some symptoms doesn’t mean at all you have it.
@@madminute6662 yes but there are tests you can take online to see if it’s worth it to actually get a real test for it
@Mirror exactly, thank you
@Mirror yeah my family likes to downplay all of my problems just because I have adhd they just tell me to “try harder” which annoys me so much
@@madminute6662 My parents know about my ADHD, yet they still tell me “try harder to focus” DO THEY NOT KNOW WHAT THE FUCK ADHD IS
I considered myself a loser for a long time as I didn't fit on the parameters of an ideal kid. Thanks to awareness about mental disorders in my country I was ignorant of these conditions, I will admit that this video boosted my morale.
Me too
Me too, Kash, UK 🇬🇧🇵🇰
me too
You're not alone
Diagnosed with ADHD when I was 9... I learned though that some of the most creative, endearing people also have this affliction too so props to all my brothers & sister out there... keep up the good fight!
I got diagnosed with ADHD in 4th grade. 11 years ago. 3 years later I got diagnosed with High Functioning Autism. My grades were terrible in 4th grade, and taking meds for it changed my life tremendously.
For those who with ADHD reading this, just know that your not alone. Of course, there’s gonna be days where some people think your acting mentally insane, but at the end of the day, look at it as a gift. I’ve had to work 10x harder than most of my friends, and I’m a happy high school graduate, who’s currently a service missionary, and will head back to school in Utah next year. I have some of the greatest family and friends in the world, and I’m eternally grateful for all the support I have behind me.
I'm really glad I saw this video because I was recently diagnosed with ADD, which I'd ADHD without the hyperactivity, and I've been very insecure about it, I felt lonely until I saw this video, thx watch mojo, keep making videos. :)
Lilitales 1 Don't worry about it! Although it's a struggle, it's nothing to be ashamed of. I have been diagnosed with it too 😊
Jill Stephenson Thx, that's means alot
lol, *that
You are most definitely not alone.
Hello fellow person with ADD! I hope in the past two years you were doing just fine with both your blessing and curse known as ADD. It is good to hear you feel better about yourself and are no longer insecure about it like I once was. I hope you have a great day!
adhd and aspergers is a gift and a curse at the same time
Yep...
Yeup
yes its very frustrating
Yes..
They are also blessing and a curse
@@theasrensen2099 because people with ads are generally more creative and better at strategies and problem solving
Liv Tyler, Zooey Deschanel, Avril Lavigne, Salma Hayek, Jennifer Connelly, Britney Spears, Hilary Duff, Emilia Clarke, Simone Biles... they all have ADHD and they are women. None of them is on this video...
Yep, apparently not inspirational enough for WatchMojo. Emilia Clarke should be there, she's really famous now with GoT and before acting she couldn't even keep a job because of her hyperactivity, despite taking Ritalin.
Yep
This comment needs more thumbs up's
Where did you hear that Hilary Duff and Avril Lavigne have ADHD? I've been their fans for years and I never knew that.
Yeah I just realized that all the ones in the video were men lol.
I was recently diagnosed with high functioning Adult AD/HD, I felt down about it for a while. But seeing that there are a handful of very successful people out there that deal with the condition definitely makes me feel inspired.
Steve Jobs also had ADHD
Arthur say whaaaat?
i’m about to fail school and drop out bc of my adhd and i feel hopeless and alone. i hope i’ll be on one of these lists one day
although my ADHD annoys my mom and my friends alot (because I bug them) it makes me an outgoing and always happy type of person (and of course hyper) I guess im glad I have it
King eli1st I feel you
King eli1st dude I wasn't disrespecting your mom. I'm saying that I understand how you feel. I meant no harm whatsoever.
King eli1st I have ADHD and it annoys everyone and I'm glad I have it I like being hyper lol
What you describe have nothing to do with ADHD except hyper but I'm not surprised since 99.9% have no clue what this disorder means.
King eli1st people at my school don't wanna be my friend because I've got ADHD and I'm deferent. but when I leave high school in won't have to see those ass holes again. I just started writing a book too
The video means something to me, because I was born with Autism,Aspergers and ADHD
and aids, triggered syndrome,gender confusion disease.
I have Aspergers, but alot of my friends have ADHD
Malik Felder I am the same,
I like seeing these kinds of positive videos. It can help encourage people with these conditions that they can overcome it.
i have adhd and deslexia
I am adhd and dyslexic dysbraxic and I'm proud
I dont care wht people thnk of me as i realised only my opnion of me matters to me
Tom Cruickshank I have all the same things as you and it sucks.
Tom Cruickshank same bro we think so differently from everyone that's normal
+Ioan McDonald cool glad to know im not alone
Tom Cruickshank same here man
I've got ADHD and I'm only 15 and just started writing a book
yay congratulations! keep at it.
I'm 16 with ADHD and just started writing a screenplay. Keep at it!
Good for you!!
I got ADHD in Ive been writing stories since I was 9
What's it called?
Recently got diagnosed with ADHD and I was pretty confused and a bit disheartened. watching this video has made me feel lots better, Thankyou !
Brendon urie deserved to be on here, I have adhd and Brendon is one of my biggest inspirations, he doesn't only overcome adhd but also anxiety
and he has anxiety
Samantha Babineaux anxiety isn't an illness it's an emotion.
Napoleon Wilson - Anxiety Disorder is an illness, though - when the way your brain is set up causes extremely frequent and uncontrollable anxiety. This has to be treated by medication or therapy, it can't just be controlled/got over like an ordinary emotion usually can.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!
Samantha Babineaux yasssssssssss.
Tell me why Brendon Urie isn't on here.
they cant
odinyo why not
idk, they probably just googled 10 celebrities with ADHD and there is yoyr list
Oh
I LITERALLY CAME TO THIS COMMENTS SECTION BC BRENDON SHOULD FUCKING BE HERE OMG
Could you include a part 2 of the list? perhaps make it female heavy.
Yeah this is a top 10 men with ADHD, they should do one for women too : Emilia Clarke, Avril Lavigne, Jennifer Connelly, Hilary Duff, Liv Tyler, Zooey Deschanel, Salma Hayek, Simone Biles, Britney Spears and Eva Longoria
Scottie Corley I would love that as a female with ADHD myself.
@@balistic565 false
KyleTheStupidJew56 that’s untrue and a very harmful misconception that leaves millions of girls with ADHD undiagnosed. ADHD isn’t just a squirming boy who can’t sit still in class. it’s so much more than that
@@ultravioletpisces3666 Actually it is true, though I believe there are some females I think should have made this list, like Simone Biles.
ADD/ADHD really isn't a disability , it's more of a hyper-ability. We think very fast and subconsciously recognize patterns, this is probably why we finish peoples sentences in our brains, and start responding before they finish. It seems annoying to average people , like we are interrupting them, yet to an person gifted with ADD, we find their dragging out a sentence so annoying when we already have heard what they are saying before they finish..
We don't have a lack of attention , but rather an abundance of thoughts we are paying attention to at once.
My way of explaining this is to compare thoughts to music, I believe the averages person thought are like a simple solo melody, like the song " Mary had a little lamb" while for the ADD brain our thoughts are like a classical symphony, multiple instruments playing various melodies, counter melodies and rhythms all at once. To a person with ADHD who hasn't learned the proper techniques ( which most teachers and parents not gifted with ADD lack understanding) that mental orchestra is missing a conductor. But once a person with ADD develops that skill their output in the world is much more interesting than the Average person with their "Mary had a little lamb mentality
Wow perfect thank you !
The way you just flipped every negative into a super power is beautiful - thank you
ADHD does not make you better at multitasking at all. It actually can make you worse at it. The hyper focus aspect can help you manage many things going on, but it isn't true multitasking because it is uneven and uncontrollable
Brian Pollard unless u can use your self determination. I was able to multitask, but I can get overwhelmed with it. However with self determination it worked
I can do a million things at once, but they won't get done very well and none of them are what I should be doing.
Brian if you learn to channel the ADHD it can actually help with multi tasking, I know if it wasn't for my ADHD I wouldn't be able to do all the stuff I do now. I remember years ago my Dr who diagnosed me told me his theory that he thought ADHD may be a hold over from when we were hunter gatherers, which to me made alot of sense.
It is like you brain multitasking
It is frustrating because everyone always comments on how I always seem to have a lot of energy, even when I am not following my prescriptions. I haven't taken antidepressants since I was like 17, and convincing myself to take.... basically meth everyday, kind of bothers me. I know I shouldn't, since it does help but sometimes can't help it.
They don 't realize that I am at the mercy of this incessant drive to.... stay engaged, I guess. I am as happy as a pig in shit by simply perusing the internet. With nothing but a glass of earl grey and a bowl of herb, I can think about anything and everything, come to understand how it all works and the big picture of it all. Just to click on another word or name, and lose it all into the cracks of my mind. I revel in it, even if I only remember some of the stuff for a few minutes.
Playing music is the only thing I can claim to have come close to mastery of, and that is only in a sense. I will never stop learning in that area of life.
The cruel irony is, no one really ever fully understands the true depths this can effect or even alter someones life. My Mom absolutely loves when I visit her, especially come time for Jeopardy. Strangely, I have almost come to terms with the idea that she is going to not only out live me... she's going to be working still too.
She is a smart woman and loves brain teasers and all that jazz. Without fail, we will watch Jeopardy at least once during a visit and she plays exclusively to do better than me. She occasionally can pull off the upset... but I literally am just a never ending fount of "useless knowledge." At the very least, a lot of knowledge that no one really needs to know. It is kind of sad though in my eyes though.
She is happy with this state of affairs, never noticing a simple fact. The same thing that makes me good at Jeopardy...
In spit of the fact that I am very good, at a great many things and have a great depth of curioesity...
I am the quintessential example of "a person that is a layman in everything. Yet, sadly, a master in nothing.
BRENDON URIE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON THIS
Kaylee Urie YESSS
Yes!!! 👏🏼🙏🏼
Omg I was thinking the exact same thing clicking on this video
YES WTF
when i saw the title i said "brendon urie better be on here.." lol
I have adhd this is really making me feel good about my self :)
As somebody with ADHD, it is good to know you feel better about yourself. c:
Me too, Kash from Manchester Uk 🇬🇧
I cant even imagine a life without adhd...
Same I wonder what it’s like
The brain must so quiet
I look up to people like Channing Tatum because he’s dealing with ADHD without medication and even though I’m struggling it helps me to realise I can push through no matter how hard it gets. Adam Lavine is one of my favourite musicians to 😊
I have ADHD I was pretty hyperactive as a child, but now I mostly just had the problems with focusing. If I start to feel like I'm not paying attention I'll snap myself back to attention. I hate ADHD sometimes because I have trouble paying attention, but I keeps me active and creative I ran track all four years of high school and I love photography, drawing and writing. Running helps me focus because I'm just focusing on getting to the finish line
Damn, if this ain't inspiring. There are successful folk with ADHD and OCD. This sort of video, it's a bit of a warm hug that tells you it's ok. That you're not alone. Make more of these for other mental issues, I'm sure it will help those who endure the topic conditions. This is good stuff. Like, good, great good, good for the soul.
As a woman with ADHD, I think this video is lame. Why only men?
Béatrice Martin why is it so bad if they were women no one would say the list is bad
velho 22 it’s still unfair: it should have an equal amount of BOTH genders, otherwise it’s as if its saying that only men can have it.

@@Mari-hb5do Ok, then name 10 women celebrities with adhd
@@Mari-hb5do Or inspirational people
Emma Watson apparently. Would never guess from her many interviews.
I mean women with adhd are known for masking
Everyone is on a spectrum some people have it more worse than others. She also medicated too
I'm glad that there's celebrities out there that actually understand what we are going threw
All these folks are people that I had no idea had ADHD but MAKES SO MUCH SENSE! I used to dream to become a musician/ actor but kept getting down on myself from lack of focus. Thanks mojo for sharing this
Sophie Turner, Alfie Allen and Emilia Clarke from Game of Thrones have ADHD
It's all guys, there's gotta be a famous women with adhd
Emilia Clarke, Avril Lavigne, Jennifer Connelly, Hilary Duff, Liv Tyler, Zooey Deschanel, Salma Hayek, Simone Biles, Britney Spears and Eva Longoria (and probably much more)
Well the issue with finding one is that the classification for autism varies between men and women, so its hard to reasearch autistic women considering that the criteria required to find them can be invalid.
many women get underdiagnosed because they mature faster and usually do not have the hyperactivity boys usually have the hyperactivity which is most recognizable with adhd
daniel charlie fernandez that's actually an interesting claims. Not really absolute
Derumas Forlos of course not, but for example, we all know that the sex chromosomes are different, XX for women and XY for men, turns out Y is much smaller than X and has waay less genes, so diseases like color blindness or hemophilia affect mostly men, and it happens for sooo many diseases that I am not afraid of generalising, look it up, it is pretty interesting :)
It's great that these people have been successful because of or in spite of their ADHD, but it's not something that's easily controlled and it's not something you just "overcome." It's not an obstacle like a rough spot in life is. It's just something you live with for better or for worse.
How is Emma Watson less inspiring that these people?
what u mean?
I have severe type 1 ADHD, severe sensory processing disorder, and short term memory loss. It can be hard, but it makes me stronger!
Does sensory disorder go away with medication?
please do a list like this for dyslexia

Keemstar has it
Eddie mott Keem would be number 1
I have ADHD (as I've been told growing up), but I hardly show symptoms of it nowadays. I still have trouble learning by hearing during lectures though. Thank god for the internet, since video courses can easily be re-winded as many times as we want to until we know we learned and memorize everything.
Whether ADHD/ADD is real or not, it should be a great thing since I wouldn't have a lot of ideas for personal projects if I wasn't always distracted by all the possibilities I think across.
"It's your ADHD, own it" :) I am ADHD and have lived with it my whole life. I denied for a long time that I was ADHD and have finally accepted it, and what a relief it has been for me. This video is an inspiration.
It's encouraging to see the success, but this narration is full of myths. I'll say one of them. You don't follow your dreams and passions, you use your gifts.
Dude: "You're Albert Einstein". Albert: "Thank you."
I am so glad to hear that there are so many people who have been able to use it to their advantage
I have ADHD but I didn't know people I look up have too.. thank you for sharing this..
last time I was this early they had ideas.
Hey, I was going to say that!
This just got real. They never run out of ideas
A Pimp true to be fair
true
+Nanonymous Did anybody think Jennifer Lawrence was going to be on this list?
THANK YOU, WhatchMojo!
I have ADHD. I can barely focus long enough to do my homework!!!!
Chantal same it’s a struggle
I have had ADHD as a child and still notice it as an adult. I do think it can be used for good. People were always surprised how good I was at baseball when I was younger. But that was more of the discipline required by my coaches. Not really an affect of ADHD.
I will say when you really do find something you love as someone with ADHD it can really make you think outside the box. For instance my company keeps asking me to write more and more blogs. And I just have to be like chill, if I'm burnt out and not really into what I'm doing then my mind is going to go other places. I love blogging but I don't want to be pressured into it or get burnt out and that happens easy for me. So it's really hit and miss and doesn't really work out so well in the real world like a lot of people claim. But yeah when you can bring it all together it works great. But that doesn't last long and then my head is somewhere else.
Just further proof... the level of creativity among those with ADHD is unmatched.
I like this. This makes my thoughts more positive through my ADHD.
Oscar winner Jennifer Connelly has ADHD
I also suffered ADHD during my elementary days and overcoming it in my mid-20's is just only a beggining... I will figure it out to do so inspite of God's mercy to finish my studies (from elementary to college)...
As someone with severe ADHD this video makes me feel a lot better about myself
Saying that some who lived back then, like Einstein had ADHD is an assumption, not a fact.
CornishCreamtea07, he didnt have clear adhd symptoms, but he did show autistic symptoms later recognised by family members
its a fact
Last time I was this early I was never this early because I always procrastinate.
The point about Michael Phelps's hyper focus is really something I connect with and something that I really feel that most people with ADHD are capable of. it's something that I wanted to encapsulate in my app FishBowl that helps teens achieve that hyper focus in other areas of their life.
Got diagnosed earlier this year at 22 years old. I graduated at the end of last year. For the last five years of education, I got help for autism. But I never got the full load of help because of the extra bucket of bs. I was always yelled at for forgetting important details, and im still criticised for not being able to do things normal people can.
These people are speaking from a painful but beautiful journey, I hope that you all are able to find your passion in those moments of clarity. And remember you have to break down to break through, but it's all part of the journey 😊
This gave me hope. Thanks for compiling all this inspirational people with ADHD
Do one like this for celebrities with depression please!
ADHD- a community that understands each other but actually couldnt take being around each other in the same environment
I was diagnosed a year and a half ago. My own Dr didn't believe that I had it,but I knew all my life I had it because of the following.
Found it hard to get a job
Excessive talking
Speaks without thinking
Impatient
Finds it hard to cope with stress
Daydreams alot
Finds it hard to listen to people
Negative
Can't focus on one task
I also have GAD
I myself has ADHD I always struggle in having more focus and its really hard, but now knowing that my idol's adam levine and channing tatum can still do better besides having ADHD I believe I can do better to. it really inspired me to be a better person.
I wonder how Tatum treats his condition. I can say from personal experience it's not easy.
I have got ADHD I wanted to watch this because ever since they have avoiding me more and everyone thinks I'm the k psycho

As a person with ADHD this is very inspirational!
I totally agree
Hoping that others who have this like myself can make it big in life

Thank you, random person on the internet
Facts.
tell me why theres not a single woman on this list?
originally thought that it was a combination of fewer female entrepreneurs and ADHD being chronically under-diagnoses in women...
But there are actually a TON of really really great women with ADHD that 110% should have been on this list :/
Cody Frost oh no feminazi spotted
There was a woman in the honorable mentions
Because girls are generally underdiagnosed while boys are over diagnosed. Im a girl and have been diagnosed with 93% adhd when I was only 4 so it was obviously seen with me but usually girls are missed. 😭😭
Cody Frost I hear ya!
My mother was told several times to get me checked for ADHD as a kid (I was always getting in to trouble) but she didn't believe it was a real thing. I had two wait until I was an adult to get official diagnosis and meds, I bet I would have done much better in school but I did have lot's of fun.
I´ve got ADHD. ets see how much people care :D
Ttriderkiler54 nunchuck cal
i care
ADD is different than ADHD
AgentCrazy I know xD why u say that?
riderkiler54 same and dysbraxia and dyslexia
Not surprised by many of these. They’ve truly managed to make the most of their “Hyper Focus” skills. With ADHD you can actually find extreme focus on certain things. So best of luck finding that folks.
I have ADHD, I do not have problems, I do very good at school and I easily distracted but not a lot, my main symptoms are just being highly energetic, always fidgeting, and I can’t stay still for so long, I was diagnosed at age 8 and now am almost 16, so mostly half my life
before I watch this- if Brendon Urie isnt on here I will cut a bitch
Are you fucking kidding me
me
HOLD ON YOU DON'T KNOW WHO PANIC AT THE DISCO IS!
Don't cut a dog, bro.
That is the worst joke ive heard today well done bud
"We take care of our dental health, we don't take care of our mental health." Preach, Howie!
why isn't Brendon urine in this video he has ADHD to
ikrrrr
Urine
*too
Urine 😂
My older brother has all the symptoms but has never been diagnosed so our family doesn't know for sure, it does explain a lot of things.
Maybe you should stimulate him to go see an ADHD specialist, if he wants to?
Jim carrey deserves a honorable mention
They didnt put Ryan Higa or Brendon Urie from Panic at the Disco
HOW IS BRENDON URIE NOT ON THIS LIST LIKE SERIOUSLY??
My son has ADHD and when he was in school, he had issues. He loves cars, so he went to UTI and put that love of cars to work. He can focus on his work and it's he's made it a benefit.
My son has adhd as well as on the spectrum of autism. He has a passion for hot wheel cars. Your post makes me have hope that he will be able to work and have a career. Thank you for sharing ❤
i think with both add/adhd, its especially hard when people say "oh stop overreacting, just focus". like that's saying "just stop having cancer" which can be managed, but its not gonna be cured.
Note: if nigahiga isnt number 1, this video is wrong
Clearly, he is.
The title is top ten ROLE MODELS
Can you make a list of people with Aspergers please? :)
I see all these videos saying 'how to know if you have ADHD' and I'm like, get diagnosed by a doctor. I have ADHD and I hate it when people say'I have ADHD and ADD' just because they play with their hands on purpose. Also,you can't have both! Sorry for ranting just needed to get that out.
Actually, the diagnose ADD is now called ADHD as well. There are three main types of ADHD; ADHD mainly inattentive type(what used to be called ADD), ADHD mainly hyperactive type(the stereotypical ADHD), ADHD combined type(which is apparently the most common). It's its own diagnosis but technically you actually can have both ADD and ADHD. Well, kind of.
I absolutely agree Emily
I have ADHD and dysgraphia. Maths also a struggle as well as reading. This is an interesting list. I also have Asperger's Syndrome, so throw that into the equation. I'm all over the place idea, thinking, and thought wise. My mind races ALL day.
i have adhd too but i set my brain to do things by competition
and trust me adhd is like god gift once you understand how your brain will work
and adhd jesse video helped me too
I can't believe they finally did a video that... Oh look, a penny!
