- Is ADHD a disability? What might make it a disability?
In many schools ADHD is considered an emotional disturbance. Not a disability.
If you want to read more on the matter. amzn.to/2OWYRrb
Based on the hunter & gatherer theory, ADHD is not a disorder. Thanks to Thom Hartmann, a scientist who was studying adhd a long time ago, a evolutionary explanation has been formulated. We in fact inherited the brain functions from our ancestors, the hunters.
However, since more farmers existed than hunters, we now live in a world that is shaped by farmers. A world in which we don't fit in, and farmers think we have a "disorder", simply because we don't think like them.

ADHD and proud. I'm glad my brain doesnt allow me to be a good little listening sheep in society. Putting a child in a chair for 8 hours and expecting them to not move IS NOT NORMAL.
The Realness same
@@s1ck866 what do you mean ?
It's supposed to train us for the 8 hour work day where you have to starve between meal breaks. Basically, it's telling us "You're going to be miserable for the rest of your life. Have fun in the adult world!"
Yeah, no. I'm an adult and I'm still trying to figure out how to get out of this hamster wheel I never wanted to be trapped in in the first place.
@ohkaygoplay we actually eat waaaay more often than necessary. We are supposed to live tribally, school is a scam.
@ohkaygoplay I feel the same way. Society is not built for us.
In other words, people with ADHD can easily survive a post-apocalyptic world, if we band all together!
How would you band together if you don't have any friends
@@JS-jr4dq they will come, dont worry ☺️
We can also create a new culture out of nowhere due to hyperfocus and we can ally with autistics and other neurotypicals.
@@JS-jr4dq weak people leech to the strong.. people that are nervous and dont have situational awareness, or dont react, follow the ones who can. its not a matter or friendship. its survival.
we love being alone and hate it at the same time.
@@christopherreyes4591 now we know how you “thrive” in society.
So instead of trying to label people as having a mental disorder, why can't we just alter or broaden our educational system so we can teach different kinds of people with different kinds of mental learning abilities instead of marginalizing people that are actually more capable of dealing with change & making them feel as though they are disadvantaged? This is mass abuse.
I like the way you think..😉🙌
@@willb8386 Yeah, it’s hard but never impossible! They can change the system if they just tried and experimented more to see what works for everybody. No one said it was going to be easy, but it’s a necessity.
Just wait for the collapse of industrial society and we neanderthals can prosper once again.
@@willb8386 It's not a "few" people lol. You would have one or two people with ADHD in a classroom of 30. With a school with 1000 kids their would be 50-100 kids with ADHD. I fail to see this as a minority.
Honestly, I believe that everyone with ADHD should be homeschooled; the flexibility in many aspects really helps us to learn more.
Failing that, we should develop separate schools for ADHD people that teaches in a way that actually benefits us more (a lot of short projects, more projects than tests, classes cover more subjects and material and cover the “why” of things, etc)
This is one of, if not the the most encouraging videos on ADHD throughout the internet.
Glad to hear it friend!
5:41 "if a hunter didn't manage to dodge a bullet" didn't know wild animals had guns back then ^^
Oh damn😂
Lol
Maybe dodge a bear claw? Cuz we know animals could shoot claws and teeth.
Dodge an arrow. A spear. A boomerang.
I would like to add that new research shows that women are just as likely as men to have it, but majority of adhd women show the inattentive signs originally associated with add, there’s really three different types of adhd and that’s hyperactive, inattentive, or having both. Hope this helps with people trying to learn more about adhd
THANK YOU for pointing that out. I'm a woman with inattentive ADHD.
This theory still holds through because: gathering.
Even though recent paleo research shows that women hunted too. Being mostly gatherers required the same ADHD skills as hunting but with less energy bursts involved and more multitasking.
Hence ADHD = Away from the settlement
Neurotypical = In or near the settlement
Still lines up.
I’m a woman in her 50’s with combined type. Yet I know that I was extremely tilted toward hyperactive as a child. It makes me believe that many of us females also have been masking, leading to anxiety, which can seem like an internal hyperactive state. That’s what I feel happened to me, and only started to heal once I realized I had a lot repressed trauma that was causing chronic inflammation and immunodeficiency issues. Now I’m getting back to my original roots, and most importantly, my body and senses. I lived solely in my head for years, and it made me ill. Using the Hunter Vs Farmer theory has been empowering on all levels. We all need to trust our nervous systems instead of labeling them as disordered. The social system created the problem in the first place.
@@tiffanybolton1832 exactly. We can’t fight natural instincts.
so what you're saying is.... I'm one of the cool kids?
Yes.
Yes you are special kid
Hell yeah! we rule!
Yep@@kugavi2679
In my opinion, those with ADHD require environments that carry some element of danger to them.
When ADHD individuals are placed into exceedingly safe environments (which we are surrounded with today), they will seek out some measure of risk and danger by breaking rules.
Very relatable, I'm often frustrated by my tendecy to create tension for no reason at all, like constantly using public transport without a ticket, not because I don't have the money, but because tensing up at every station and scanning for "Kontrolleure" (dont know the english word) is the most thrilling part of my workday.
@@Fliptheonly yes, “living on the edge.” There’s something about danger that makes us feel alive.
@@Fliptheonly 🔥💀
The ADHD part of me seeks adventure. The Autistic part of me craves safety.
It's a constant brain battle. I'd love to shut my autism off and just be the adventurous soul I want to be without being held back by the autism that makes me afraid. The RSD can also take a hike.
I love the outdoors and hiking in really cold weather and extreme environments
This literally made me cry never have I felt more understood. Thank you for this!
Its considered an adaptation but its not 100% settled science. Basically we're hunters in an agricultural society.
You have no idea how much I appreciate this video!! I’ve gone undiagnosed my entire life until college and after a lot of self reflection and psychology courses I am ADHD AF and proud!
🙏🙏🙏
Girl, me too. I'm proud as well.
Last sentence is the only one I don't agree with. There is evidence that women did you go hunting more than we thought. And the less frequent diagnosis in women can be attributed to them being socialised to care more about connections to people and their acceptance. Otherwise, I really like this theory.
totally agree it manifests differently in women and does not mean that adhd is more prevalent in men
@@user-fu2hb3ny9bkinda interesting here…. I’m an indigenous woman…we’ve always hunted and fished and I have ADHD so ? One of my older brothers probably did as well. I find it so fascinating.
I don’t think of myself different from others, I think of others as different from me.
I hate the term "behavioral therapy", it's just conditioning to suppress that which makes you stand out from the crowd.
Temple Grandin, on autism, states the same theory, even tho it's a spectrum, people with autism tend to be the ones who were anti-social and wondered how to make a wheel and cart, while others socialised.
I’m a woman with adhd and it’s relatable. Maybe in past lives we were hunters. In any case, I work as an outdoor educator teaching mostly boys about skills like tracking and survival! I think this theory makes a lot of sense and all the adhd boys in the program are kickass at starting fires and tracking and noticing patterns outside. I think adhd people can also be really good in creative fields or like sales. Teaching also works but not in a regular school with paperwork. Try alternative programs.
I tried sales and I couldn’t do it.
@@norco4life518 Was just curious as to why you couldn't do it? (If you are comfortable with sharing, that is!) Thinking of going into sales myself
I've had desk jobs. It's a slow, painful, soul death, plain and simple. So are all of the customer service jobs, retail, and restaurant jobs I've had/have, but desk jobs are THE worst.
I'm an artist. A singer, a writer, performer, creative person who loves space, and sci-fi fantasy. Putting me in one spot when I'm not doing something I'm interested in while in that spot - let alone for hours and hours every single day - is pure torture. I am constantly screaming inside. That's the worst thing you can do to me.
My parents wanted me to get into business and become a secretary. I was like, "So, you want me dead, is what I'm hearing."
Now it makes sense why I liked reading Jack London's Call of the Wild and White Fang so much. I guess I relate to these characters a lot.
Wow! I like what you do for a living but I love that you're showing those boys what a strong woman does. What a great role model!
Hell yeah I'm a hunter!
I appreciate the sentiment and I think its cool you see it like that. Personally I've got pretty severe ADHD (PI) and the constant brain fog, and inability to no only do work but pursue any hobbies that aren't immediately stimulating (writing, music production, even slow rpgs and arty games). I also hate the extent that 'boredom' hurts and that I constantly interrupt people. Maybe it's a the extent of mine, or it's a PI thing, but in the industrialised society we live in, it certainly feels like a disability and it bloody sucks, and the understimulation intolerance would still suck regardless of the time period. I personally find the whole 'ADHD is a superpower' narrative quite devalidating (not suggesting that was your point, I was just reminded of it)
Maybe it would have been useful back then, particularly predominantly and combined types, but I consider it 'maladaptive', in the way the something like dissociative identity disorder is a survival mechanism for abused children but becomes an issue later on in life (but on an evolutionary scale rather than an individual level).
Also, it's worth noting that typically women aren't diagnosed with ADHD as often because typically externally manifests differently for them (particularly in childhood) and is more of an underdiagnosis thing than a prevalence thing. AFAIK recent science suggests its a much closer gender split than we previously thought.
That's just my perspective though and it was great video nonetheless!
PS. On a another note, does anyone else with ADHD find they use way to many subclauses and wish you could put brackets inside brackets. Like I wanted to say I couldn't finish Witcher 3 and I had to get stoned to play Journey, but I couldn't make it work grammatically. Also crazy amounts of run-on sentences.
Yeah dude, I agree to pretty much your whole comment and I can totally relate to making too many subclauses and wanting to put brackets into brackets.
Sometimes I just feel that telling a story or explaining something without giving all the necessary side information, context, explanations, etc won’t work and so I add all these subclauses.
I talked about this with the people around me and apparently, most people don’t actually care about all this side information and don’t want to understand something in all it’s detail. Having a surface level understanding or one that relies on assumptions to fill in the holes that stem from a lack of information seems to be enough for most people.
Apparently it’s just a difference in how we understand things and how neurotypical people understand them.
@@yourlocaltoad5102 Yeah, that's definitely it! I always provide wayyy too much information. I suspect related to that being how we think and the fact I tend to type and think concurrently. Out of curiosity, is that what you do, or do you think of a sentence before typing it (and same with talking)?
Speaking of too much information, it's been a interesting experience learning how many of my quirks and behaviours are common amongst those with ADHD, and it seems being an 'fact junkie' is pretty common, even for obscure and pointless shit. I spend at least 3 hours on wikipedia a day, either sporadically when I get distracted from something important by sudden curiosity or on a hyperfocused bender that lasts 5 hours. I'll forget to brush my teeth but if you need to know who invented the sewing machine, I got you.
I think we ADHDers need learn to master the semicolon, it seems handy.
(it was Thomas Saint by the way)
You can kind of bracket subclauses inside subclauses if you use dashes and parentheses in addition to commas to differentiate the thought groupings. It's just best not to go full Inception mode, lol.
I’m ADHD (PI) and I can relate.
Great video brother
Thanks buddy!
Another point could be "questionable" morals (from a modern viewpoint). It is a strength to be able to do "immoral" things, like killing another human, if you are living in a world where hesitation could mean your own, or your collective's, death.
Well this explains why I couldn't focus in a class but can spot a deer sneaking past my stand.
Please make more videos. They’re needed and they help 😊
3:48 Yeah I notice I tend to do that in bad situations. A lot of people freeze up, but I find myself going into investigative mode so I can see what’s happening. We had a gun scare at prom 2 years ago, and while everyone was running, I was getting to a different spot to assess the situation. Maybe not the brightest idea I’ve had, but it came instinctively
I think everyone hates doing things that doesn't interest them
Those with ADD struggle unlike those with normal brain function.
Funnily not.
I am diagnosed with ADHD. So true what you described. I can say that I am excellent in stressful situations. There was a case where my abilities saved people's lives. I heard a noise of fire in the middle of the night, and it turns out that the building in front of me started to catch fire from the stairwell. I saw it from the window. I screamed at the people to wake up and run away, they got up and ran out of the building and that's how they survived. I ordered firefighters and the fire was extinguished.
I’m not excellent in stressful situations.
@@Topg1 It depends on how confident we are, or at least I am. Also my resilience to stress increased when I started testing myself in a new trade. I did start losing hair but man I came out for the better.
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
I overthink my impulsivity but still need a physical outlet, I'm always very aware of mine and others safety though. Sounds like hunter traits. Also if there is loud noise or threat I scan my surroundings for what I view as the disorganised reactions of others.
Same here 🙏
Literally every time I start watching a RUclips video, I immediately remember “oh I have to do that other thing” and then switch to another app while the video continues playing in the background. After doing the other thing, I’ll come back to the video and then have to restart it and the cycle repeats 😔
KNOW IT!
i can say that this theory is f... k true. me and a friend found that we both have adhd while Mounanering...
we do Rock climbing.. mountainering.. ski mountaineering and mountainering together
my son also has it.. and when we go climbing.. mountainering or ski touring he's chill.. in his element...he's 10
when we go home were not in our enviroment.. becoming a pain in the ass for others... togeder doing crazy shit we're focused... like a hunter's party 20.000 years ago
I don’t know if I was a hunter or not but I can confirm that my survival instinct is very very strong. I left several boyfriends because they ever threatened me or behaved aggressive/violently towards me, just need one time and it was enough to trigger my urge to save my life. When i was 15, I learnt meditation everyday from a friend who tried to teach me his martial art, but I never could meditate. I kept look left and right, straight and behind to watch for the surroundings while he can close his eyes for 15 minutes, so incredible to me. I hardly can sleep in the car while others drive because I drive in the non-driver seat as well 😂
I don't date but I relate with the I-take-no-shit attitude so much. If someone pisses me off or threatens me I rarely think twice about kicking them right out of my life. I used to think I am oversensitive but now it makes more sense.
Keep going with this channel it’s awesome!
Thank you!
This is a logical explanation. With ADHD you are constantly aware of your environment. Every sound, every voice you can in a fragment of a second recognize it as threathening and you are co stantly aware of your environment and scan it for dangers. If you on hunt you must be aware and alert of every sou d of an animal jumping up or a prey that you seek to slay to bring food back to your tribe. You may find people with ADHD totally absorbed by doing things in these days translates to money as we now dont need to sit down alerted for weeks waiting for prey to accure. When you seem someone absorbed in gambling or games you can just see it as they are on hunt and they observe, calculate and wait for weeks to strike. When you meet someone with ADHD he is probably almost friendly and ki d but if it goes to action he is fast to react with explosivity like a lightning and it goes fast. The hunters could not consider a situation for minutes or days inspite of an animal appear and attack but must be fast to react with aggtesivity and furiosity as now called impulsivity. It saved lives and maybe we should not be alive otherwise.
I'm now 16 and was placed on a special school for children with learning disabillities because of my ADHD I couldnt sit still but was always amazing in Physical Activity
And when I was really interested about some topics I would pay alot of attention and get good grades after a while thanks to a great teaccer who had driven me to get my grades up I went to a normal school got my graduation and now I am studying Sports concentrating on becoming a Sport Instructor
And about 4 months ago I got another test and it was proven that I had no learning disabillity
I'm from the Netherlands btw so my English isnt that fluent.
Your English it great brother! Thank you for sharing your experience. I also had trouble paying attention and sitting still in school, but I was an above average athlete when I was your age! Good luck to you in all that you do!
Well damn how humble to able to say not good in English after writing everything without mistakes i guess
Proud of you! I hope you keep on. Wishing you all the best in life from Seattle, WA USA!!🥰
From my experience, when men with ADHD are great with doing particular tasks, women with ADHD(but also on autism spectrum) are bit calmer and with much more social motivation, so they are doing great as leaders.
In our age that is mainly role as managers or greatly prospering self employees.
Never went to send a video to my mom so quick
What is the guitar music in the clip?
Excellent video. Thank you.
Your welcome! Thanks for the comment
Schools & societies claimed that Neurodivergents meaning a disturbance in which they claimed that they do have a disorder only because they behave disorderly to the Farmer & Neurotypical Society.
The 8 really surprised me. I suspected but I haven't ever heard it out loud. I had problems being too hard on people, but most of the time was playing. Of course, the other person didn't notice it as playing, but I fixed that. Thanks.
Glad I was able to shed some light!
Now this is what I needed to hear. Finally something to heal my self confidence and self respect. Recently got diagnosed with ADHD. Listening to all that negativity about ADHD that these neurotypicals are spreading was making me self doubt and had injured my self confidence. I am still wondering if I should tell about this to my classmates and friends or should I keep it just to myself. But it seems like neurotypicals would just not understand it. So I think it's better to just keep em wondering. Lol
And you please don't go in that typical depressing route of defining ADHD as a disorder. We have a lots losers and neurotypicals like Dr Russell Barkley spreading extreme negativity against this condition already. We don't need that anymore. Please keep focusing on the positives of the condition and how to magnify them and how to minimize the negatives.
I'm already feeling more energetic after watching this
Thank you for that motivational comment..I feel more energetic after reading it haha. Will do friend, thanks!
Great video! Everything said i love to do it, and thats why i am always distracted 😞
I've recently begun to consider hunting for meat since my wife and I have gone primarily plant based and don't want to support industrialized meat. See: Amazon rainforest destruction for cattle ranching.
I've not personally been hunting since I was a kid and I didn't actually shoot anything. Having ADHD in a modern society makes you feel out of place and since the pandemic I've started to feel an even stronger pull towards nature. Being able to reconnect with our natural environment and the prospect of being able to utilize my primal urges to my advantage has a romance about it, especially when it aligns with my ideals of environmental conservation.
Eventually I'll be able to set aside time to actually go hunting and see how my mind performs. Great video by the way!
Funny, I love nature aswell. Taking frequent walks in parks and by the water is what I life for. Good luck on your journey, friend!
Question,so if you have ADHD Asperger’s and a higher than normal intellect where do you fit??
Are we not worried about copyright issues?(the film clips)
then you are a hopeless case. your high intelligence makes you score high on intelligence tests. thats all.
‼💯🥰 I love your videos the way you keep our minds entertained and making us laugh you are amazing at what you do‼💯 I did have lots to say but come the end of the video I forgot most of it as you do😂 but one thing I do remember is a few yrs ago Me at 30 ish with three children and married was jumping out big trees‼💯 in to Rivers just because I loved it‼💯🥰😂 there's many many more stories😂 I do love me being with ADHD‼💯🥰
Thank you so much for this!! This is the most positive take on ADHD I've ever seen. I'm crying, because this makes me feel validated and not actually broken. Just demonized in a world run by neurotypicals for neurotypicals.
I'm down for being a hunter. I'd add artist to this, since we have a tendency to start something hands on and artistic and forget to eat, sleep, pee, whatever. We get into the zone and that's it. We check out. We live there now. Do not disturb. Leave me and my pottery alone. Me and my flute did nothing to you, farmers. Leave me be.
Back then, we would have been totally into what we did. It would also mean we didn't have to be around other people aside from our hunting party, so we wouldn't have to endure farmers trash talking hunters.
Not only do I like this theory that our brains were actually useful, but you kept it entertaining, and moving along at a pace that kept my interest. Thank you. :D
It's hard to exist in a world that's not meant for us.
It makes total sense that we're hunters! You want something found? Find an ADHD person hyperfixating on it.
I still go on the hunt. It's called The Mall. :)
I did this recently to find one exact puffer vest. It went to three different malls, and looked online before finding it in another mall, and drove there to pick it up in one size while I waited for another size I ordered to arrive. I took the size that didn't fit back to the store today - driving all the way back to that same mall. To me? Worth it. I have hunted down the perfect puffer, and I love it. :)
When I get it in my head to find one specific item, literally nothing else matters. I will travel to multiple locations to find what I want. This also goes for searching online for that exact thing, and then being 1000% with driving to the location to pick it up, or drive to a distant location to experience something.
I did this last spring with mining. I drove over 100 miles just to dig in the dirt looking for crystals. I found some. :)
Aaaaallllllll of this. You could definitely be in my tribe. 👌🏼
Oh my god. That's so true. I ALWAYS FIND whatever I'm looking for, and then wonder why other people give up so easily. "Couldn't find it" is a sentence that I cannot fathom uttering.
Farming is a winning strategy. We are outdated. 😢
i agreed. thanks to my adhd. someone life was save while i remember everybody screaming n wailing
1:44 - it looks like all of them are walking, and the building walks along with them. Especially when at 1.5 speed.
Fantastic. Thank you. We have a different brain and our sourrounding make it to such a problem instead of gain from it. This is it. What I always know and those who would not live and been born at all if it wasnt for us. Hunters and warriors serving the tribe. Just now I rest though my brain still think I have to be energized and recovered before the hunt and battles start.
Well done. Noticed same elements in military patients (pilots, special forces ,marines) 15 years ago. Medicate until environment and regime adapted. Otherwise mortality by age 40 double vs average humans!
I really like your channel! That said, pretty much everyone's ancestors were hunters And gatherers because agriculture is a fairly recent phenomenon. Also, just because someone is female doesn't mean they didn't have male ancestors that were hunter-gatherers. It just presents differently in females most likely because of the different hormones that are at play
I do find the hunter theory intriguing though. Would explain a lot
I know this is old, but here in this video it claims that people with ADHD were the hunters, which would imply that everyone else was a gatherer or did other things, which would check out since in hunter gatherer societies hunts are not an everyday thing, and can go weeks or eve months without a hunt and live just fine thanks to everyone else. It’s a system where everyone benefits eachother: when there is a hunt, people with ADHD would hunt, when there is no hunt, everyone else would contribute :)
At this point all we need is Animus like in Assassin's Creed game to identify our ancestors
I was diagnosed with the non hyperactive type (314.00 in DSM) and I never felt an urge to hunt. I just can't stay still that long. I also get grossed out too easily to do anything other than the shooting aspect of hunting. It is possible that I may have a different but similar disorder. It is also possible that ADD and ADHD are a little more mysterious than we realize.
There are different types of ADHD. There is ADHD primarily hyperactive type, impulsive, can’t sit still, always moving. Then their is the predominantly inattentive:difficultly focusing, planning, forgetful, etc
You’re taking it too literally. It’s that your brain is built to be on the move, creatively solve problems, paying attention to everything, etc.
This is pretty interesting! I've not heard about the hunter/gatherer aspect, is it your theory or is that from academia? I bet that those with ADHD who identify as hunter-gatherers also have had a lot of jobs. Makes sense, right? Not sure how I ended up here but this is interesting and I can relate to a lot of it. Never thought of myself as disorderly but I don't mind. Just thought I like to mess with people and have that rep but it's just how I'm made. Thanks for this, really learned something. 👌
What kind of jobs are good for people that could be hunters? First responders? Are there any other jobs that could be suitable for people with ADHD
Hey great question, I actually made a video on exactly this topic - the best jobs for people with adhd. First responders is indeed one of them ;), be sure to check out the others in the video on my channel!
I love the idea that we were hunters and I agree with most of your points but that doesnt make it "non-disorder" It is disorder since we need medication to adapt in many features of modern society. Maybe for the athletes it may apply but when I was a child I had so many obstacles because I didn't know I had ADHD. I thought I'm so messed up. Lazy and idiot and it lead to my depression and anxiety. Fear of failure and low self-esteem is still there. The medication does wonders for many of us and it did for me. As long as we need medication to modify our maladaptive behaviour it will stay as disorder imo.
Hey, Philip, thanks for the comment. I am really glad medication was able to help you! The reason I made this video was just to kind of get people to think about their disorder a bit differently i.e. that there is nothing fundamentaly WRONG with your brain, but that it has just not evolved fast enough with the world around us. This shift in thinking helped me to personally realise that adhd is actually something natural, making me more confident. I'm hoping that perhaps this can be achieved for other like minded people, such as yourself, aswell!
@@adhdvision Yeah, I agree. Thanks for the videos and clarification :)
@@philipkim9779 No worries :)
I agree that it can still be considered a disorder but not because you need medication. Society was mostly built to accommodate Neurotypical brains, not us divergents. I'm pro meds but you shouldn't take them because the world makes you belive you're sick, if that makes sense.
@@14DANESSJ I agree man. I take them to fit into the society that I belong tho. Thats something we have to compromise as I don't want to live off grid in the forest hunting and just living by myself in isolation. Most of job related work except athletes and artist require quiet long time of attention span without hyper active brain. That is why I take medication. I probably needed to find a job that is interesting and able to stimulate my brain enough that I don't need to take meds but I didn't know any better when I was a college student. So, I take my meds to fit into work environment and meditate to not to be controlled by impulses.

oh now i get it! i'm a risk taker!!! that's why i always did risky things even if they seemed dumb at first, it was because of my ADD, now i know, thanks, subbed to the channel!
Relatable!! 😂 clips made me lol and karate kit as well as shout out 🎉sooo funny
That explains why i love to go WAY WAY WAAAY over the speedlimits on rural roads sometimes and that this feels so rewarding.... huh.... never thought this would be part of my ADHD...i always thought i am just nuts....
Perfect timing 👌
I believe in this theory. Because In the right environment, this was exactly what happened. I thrived! I was the hunter!
Anyone who is high spectrum ADHD/ADD know full well it can ruin your life without meds or counceling.
I think I missed the hinting class??
Plus who would not hate to do thing's which do not spark our interest ?
I mean i think that aplys to everyone.
As in everyone hates to do thing's which do not spark our interest.
Good 👍video thanks a lot
I’m diagnosed ADHD, felt a little bored and uncomfortable in the “normal” circumstances. But as I’ve gotten older I’ve realised it’s the Hunter in me I used to call it the savage, I couldn’t control it it’s like HURRY UP WHAT ARE YOU DOING, I’m from a place that’s got a bad rep so I used to think it was that like an accent. But it’s deeper than that, I remember once I had a fight with 3 guys and it went in slow motion and I won believe it or not. Adhd has its good bits but it’s just the lack of sleep and friends ect that’s not so good. Oh well
Today I learned I would have been a prolific hunter
I'm a female who's just been diagnosed with ADHD. Called a Tomboy, growing up, a maverick at work and, as I've aged, a bit "demented".
I like your explanation much better.
My last name is Hunter and I had /have a rock band called Andrew Hunter & The Gatherers - 🤣only to later in life be diagnosed with ADHD still do not fit in.

I have ADHD and i don't know why but i get really uncomftorable everytime someone brings it up that i have it
I get that. Its probably because of the whole stigma surrounding it where people who don't know any better might think you are not as smart as them etc. I also don't like bringing up my adhd (or when other people do) because I don't want to fall under all that prejudice. There is just too much "fake news" out there when it comes to ADHD. So no worries, you are definitely not alone on that one friend!
Because you haven't accepted that you have it
Just embrace that you have it and own that shit. If people don't like it they can piss off. You can't control what you are, but you can control how you feel, Don't let others dictate your emotions.
@@14DANESSJ Nice attitude. But we cannot control how we feel. That's part of the problem.
Whats that movie with the mammoths?
My ADHD brain instantly said: "10.000 BC" - Never saw the movie, just a trailer in 2008.
Thank you for this. My favorite ADHD take. This was very well done.
Hahahahaha IT'S NOT A TUMOR!
No, it's not a disability! This explains so much! When I hyper focus on my creative work - all is well! It's just a matter of understanding our personality type and using it to our advantage.
Every time you think you forget at the same exact time if you just remember to relax your muscles in every time you think then you can stop the over hyperactive disorder but some of you probably do that already and you think you're depressed being depressed is just being to you need to stay relaxed so many hours of the day then you need to get up and do stuff which is going to make you over pressurize your muscles and your stomach with fluids and food and intestines and bladder think every time you run around and staying busy at your bladder is full and that you're constantly trying to ignore it but if you just go to the bathroom and remove that pressure you will calm down a little bit annual recognize the pattern
I have adhd n I’ve been tryin to learn abt it bc I had hated the med for it but I think the best for us is we need to learn the skill not bs around it
New studies show that actually it was women too that went hunting not just the men ... so would even up why women have ADHD too
The part about woman doin less hunting than men is most likely not true. When you have a small band everyone needs to be able to hunt to fill in a postition. Other than that great video! Subbed!
A man once asked me, how did vegetarians come to be in the old times? The answer was those who could not hunt ended up eating plants and ect not meat.
So you're saying, I should begin the hunt? Gotcha! 🤣
Is that Abby Martin as the first show host that is featured here? Looks and sounds like her! If so, what show is it?
Great video! Love the editing... too bad you seem to have lost motivation to make more :/
Hey man, i'm back at it!
Focus on hunting but can't focus in a group or alone?
😂 funny how their own explanation doesn't make sense
There's nothing wrong with you ! . Embrace yourself ♥️ you're brilliant just the way you are
How do you know hunters hated cleaning the house?
When we talk about ADHD different abuilities I really want to know the name of the song to learn it to play on my guitar.:)
Damn love your humour!!
getting tested soon..But yeah as a kid I would always think I could become a wolf when I saw that movie with blood&choclate.I taught ooh I have those skills lmao
ADHD is a disorder. by definition it is an irregularity as most people don't have it. the reason it exists is that it had an advantage when hunting. the disorder sickle cell anemia makes you malaria resistant so it is very common in Asia and Africa. celiac disease makes you resistant to salmonella and that is why it hasn't been weeded out.
I'm a woman, and I have severe adhd
Less women being diagnosed is not the same as less women having adhd. The evidence for sex based roles in ancient humans is weak at best.
This described me to an absolute t. Thank you for this
