Lots of great stuff. Turning piles upside down to go through them - so that you're starting with the oldest and likely expired items first - is a brilliant suggestion for gaining momentum. Thank you for all of your great, helpful info!
The biggest help I found was the "cook once eat all week" cookbook. Biggest time and mental saver I have ever seen. My brain loves everything about this way of managing meals for a large family. It has saved me a lot of time!
I am an undiagnosed ADHD person and at a point in my disgusting life that I no longer even try to make things better… I don’t want to try anything AT ALL. I read, listen, watch and go; oh yeah, whatever. I feel like I need to force myself Sooo HARDDDDD to drag myself out of home and I feel I am already exhausted, specially mentally. So, thank you for this amazing video, but yeah, whatever.
"Find your tribe. Hang out with people who understand you." That "advice" is pretty painful if you're in a small town, another country, etc. If you have this kind of support, I think you must be very lucky.
Exactly. Where I live, ADHD is not even recognized… I can’t get diagnosed and even if I did online, I can’t get prescribed meds… none is available locally.
For those struggling to find good friends... By carefully observing, you will find similar ADHD traits in others, whether they've been diagnosed or not. Even then, be cautious of who you let in your life. Only those who are accepting and not critical of others. I also have close friends without ADHD. I was 42 when diagnosed, and I'm 65 now. Finding resources and doctors is/has been hard. ADDitude has been my best resource for years. We ARE uniquely wonderful and have amazing gifts. We also don't give up. Now that's an understatement! 😅
Thank you so much for sharing. It's WILD how I already tried one or two of the strategies discussed here by myself unconsciously, and the speech helped me to know better about how they actually work. For example I've been tracking down how long I thought it would take to do something and how long it actually takes for a month. My worst guess so far is I thought it would take me 2 hours but in fact it took me less than 10 min to finish lol
I have been doing the thing with having a basket of clean closes and a basket of dirty clothes but I didn’t realize till I got diagnosed recently that these were coping mechanisms not me failing as a person.
The question that should be asked is why is there not more places to get diagnosed in every walk of life, the increase in quality of life and productivity for millions, most who are not aware would be phenomenal.
Thank you ADDitude so much for all the excellent information. You guys are awesome! I have a suggestion for collaboration with 'child and more ADHD engaging format' for your platform 🤔💚 As far as keeping attention for us who need key notes, music, color, and such to stay focused!? 😉 online a few people with editing teams, who are ADHD are also bringing awareness, active community chats, and might be able to join forces for mutual benefit? Every success to your great work ☺️🤗
Whoa, Americans have to organise their own medical expenses and payslips etc for their tax? The tax office would already have all that information. That’s crazy. What a massive waste of everyone’s time.
Luckily poor people never have ADHD because doctors and therapists are super expensive so there's absolutely no way they can get diagnosed or help if they did have it so it's a good thing only middle-class and upper-class people ever have ADHD.
I appreciate you are trying. But who really has an organisational consultant, a psychiatrist, a councellor and all the rest of those luxuries. Do u have any advice or resources for normal people?
"Just find your tribe". Like I haven't been trying? Fkr 46 years that's all I wanted. Haven't had my assessment yet, but this is not advice. I need to be kind to myself and leave this webinar only a few minutes in.

You may have just saved my life.
"For instance, you know morning is coming. It comes everyday..." No truer words have ever been spoken. lol

If you quit trying, you're never going to get better. I'm 60 and still trying.

Or a big city, but haven't worked anywhere more than 2 yrs, moved 60+ times and self employed for last 10yrd... Then a pandemic

I came to the comments to say the same thing. I'm leaving the webinar because of it, as this is not advice.

I was listening when it went live and I was hoping I'd find it again...thank you so much for posting!! 😊🤗😊

This was great! The talk was filled with concrete tips to better manage adhd. thank you!
Thank you for all of these videos.
Audiobooks, create a reward system for yourself. Make a trigger to make new habits. Drink lots of water. Timers, watch, alarms and notepads

Can C-PTSD with emotional dysregulation mimic ADHD
This is a question I have as well.
Or can you be more susceptible for C-PTSD because you have ADHD with rejection sensitivity.
Luckily poor people never have ADHD because doctors and therapists are super expensive so there's absolutely no way they can get diagnosed or help if they did have it so it's a good thing only middle-class and upper-class people ever have ADHD.
If you are in the USA, poor people can get help via Medicaid. I know from personal experience.
@@ronmorey3475 that may work for some people but they would never qualify me for Medicaid.
I appreciate you are trying. But who really has an organisational consultant, a psychiatrist, a councellor and all the rest of those luxuries. Do u have any advice or resources for normal people?
I am also never ever ever late. Planning ahead for everything all the time is exhausting. Is this relevant?

Help.
