    During this video I felt like you were describing the exact way my brain works.

    This makes all those times I need to distract half my brain to study or struggle to read (and reread and reread and...) make SO much more sense! 😅 Thank you! 😁

    When you said "milky way" not only did I think of stars, and a candy bar, but every song I know that has the phrase milky way in it, as well as the bassist from My Chemical Romance because his name is Mikey Way... yeah.

    Lol Milky Way made me think about the role of tricksters in folklore. In grade school we had a field trip to the planetarium and they shared a story about Coyote trying to bring a sack of stars to a place where they were being distributed, but he wound up dragging it and causing a little hole, and that's where the Milky Way came from

    “Remember: stay weird”? Uh, like I could ever forget and like I have a choice. More accurate: “You may choose to recall that you are atypical in certain regards and celebrate that fact. If you’re feeling bad about being ‘weird’, you can always…”.

    this video made me feel so validated for having so many different systems for jotting things down and for having so many distracted ideas that are not that relevant. tysm for making this!!

    Was never diagnosed but I grew up extremely creative -- it was hard to do anything unless it was extremely amazing. It literally hurted to do mediocre things. That's why my comics and drawings were so successful.

    I was always told I was having a 'grasshopper moment', jumping from thoughts that seemingly have no relation to anyone but me. Then I'd have to spend the next half hour explaining to teachers/parents/friends/partners how I got to that point 😅
    Thank you for your videos. It's great to feel seen and help understand the 'why' a bit better ( ^◡^)

    Autistic ADHDer chiming in here - my board looked like the right board. However, if the question had at first been "what is the Milky Way" rather than just "Milky Way", that would have made my answers a lot more specific and useful!
    I find that the way the question is asked and how specific it is can really assist in me finding the right information. Not sure if that applies to people with only ADHD though, I would be interested to know!

    I used to have the most insane level of associative thoughts. Like this video to a tee. Then I started taking SSRI’s and other meds and they’ve tamed down a bit more, but damn I do kind of miss them.

    • @WhatintheADHD
      @WhatintheADHD  7 месяцев назад +1

      Yeah, I'm not sure how I would feel if the frequency of my random ideas and associative thoughts just went down! Yeah, it may be easier to think and focus, but my random thoughts are what makes it bearable living in here!

    Only having the criterion 'milky way associations' and then judging the narrow one that only has astronomy, as better, fails if an additional, better defined criteria were created. It would show that broader associations are more affective and ready to serve an undefined range of unknowns, like narrowing the associations to either food stuffs. or astronomy. I'm ADHD too, so is my partner. I liked the video.

    Milky way: cofee (with milk), tea, stars, intelstellar transport, beaver (cause beaver toy in front of mee and it's brown (cofee colour)), dams, concrete, cement, sand, arabs, camel, cactus and lemon (cause of video there camel chew on them), (also, sky and clouds caus this video has them)
    Or I didn't understood the task right and should be thinking about direct matches?

    Can you make a video what job position can people with ADHD do? I think the best is self employment or have own company.

    Sadly, Link between ADHD and creativity is not that supported by science litterature.
    There is a WINDOW of ADHD symptoms that helps in creative thinking tasks. Too much symptoms, going into the pathological (and diagnosed) and we don't see this trend anymore.
    Creativity is highly linked however with IQ, general inteligence or education - Creativity and intelligence can be improved, it is not a fixed amount.
    i have seen that having a short-term reward helps but it might be due to motivation and ADHD having trouble with delayed consequences and rewards.
    hope this helps, cheers.
