~ Medications used to treat ADHD such as methylphenidate, amphetamine, and atomoxetine indicate a dopamine/norepinephrine dysfunction as the neurochemical basis of ADHD and a potential target for anxiety and depression
~ The presence of probable ADHD and the severity of ADHD symptoms are related with the severity of insomnia, even after controlling the depression, anxiety
Summary
~ ADHD and many disorders have similar symptoms and common neurological and neurochemical causes including dysfunction in the frontal cortex and the dopamine and norepinephrine symptoms.

This hits you right in the gut, got diagnosed late last year at 42, and I'm still trying so hard to fit in with a neurotypical world. When the presentation said adults with ADHD are 42% more likely to underemployment, fear of rejection etc, that's all true with me. Haven't had a full time job for over 10 years. Been doing supply chain, photography, video editing, delivery driving, Uber driving, digital marketing, web developing to name a few. Now that I know what's wrong with me after all these years, I have hope.
All the best for all the other late starters like me..
I appreciate you watching. Other videos that might help can be found at: ruclips.net/user/DocSnipessearch?query=ADHD
I wouldn't say it's "what's wrong" with you, rather it's "what's different".
Hi I’m also same position as you my life has been living hell, struggling with relationships struggling to keep a job, I’ve worked in so many different sectors you name I’ve done it, from factories to warehouses, to delivery, restaurants etc etc. can’t seem to keep anything, suffering a nervous breakdown, funny I was in Egypt on holiday and had a breakdown a friend of a friend was a doctor, he spent a week or so with me, he diagnosed me with ADHD but when I got home, I forgot about it last 2 years same cycle again and again. Recently I found my diary I had lost, in it were notes from his hospital hence led me to these videos, all these years I’ve been thinking what is wrong with me, tomorrow morning I’ll be making a appointment with my Doc. Need help I’m falling apart again and again.
I hope you are doing well.
This helps explain why I’ve medicated myself the last 20 years with alcohol, caffeine (6-8 cups a day), cannabis, NyQuil etc. So tired of being exhausted and overwhelmed by life.
I appreciate you watching! Other videos you might be interested in can be found at: ruclips.net/user/DocSnipessearch?query=addiction
This video and a recent diagnosis of ADHD has saved me. For 29 years I've been living undiagnosed and have unknowingly been struggling with my jobs and family life, living with anxiety thinking it was something everyone else was dealing with. Now with this knowledge and prescribed medicine, I can take to improving the life I've managed to build, and finally being at peace and enjoying it.
Thanks for watching. Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
Awesome! 👍 I was diagnosed with Autism and adhd last June and never in a million years did I think I had these disorders. Because of the stigma and stereotypes. We got to get rid of the stigma and the stereotypes by talking about our experiences and get it out there. This video is sooo helpful!
This really hits deep with me. I wish I was able to get help sooner.
Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
Where u able to get help? I'm just now realizing that I may have ADHD at 32 after starting my life off hectic and always in trouble as a child being told that I never sat down and I was always into things, going into my teenage in early adult hood years I was into a lot of impulsive things, addiction, and several car accidents now I'm in my 30s and everything seems like it's never ending I'm unemployed I'm depressed I'm a emotional wreck, everything in my life is in shambles and I'm trying to figure out why. And the more that I research about ADHD the more everything I hear resonates with me so I need to find someone in my area that specializes in ADHD to tell me if this is actually what I'm dealing with 😔
Jesus christ bro. You ain't kidding. I didn't even believe it was a thing. I thought the insurance companies made it up to sell crank to kids. Lol diagnosed yesterday at 42. At least there's finally a reason for all this horriblness in my head.. we all deserve a shot at happiness hope you all get it and keep onto it for a long time.
@@brendanmichael4091 All the best bro, same here, diagnosed late last year at 42, It's never too late all the best for new beginnings.. at least that's how I take it at this point in my life..
When you mentioned trauma, that light bulb came on. I'm 40 and have always had some form of anxiety and concentration issues as children but I was an "A" student. I pulled my hair out when in class or during school work. I was an organized chaos child. I never knew what it was. My family didn't know but constantly teased me, embarrassed me, saying something is wrong with me in an insulting manner, and made me feel like I was abnormal and weird. Fast forward to 2006 in Afghanistan where I under went CPTSD it started this bullet train of shyt I've been struggling through for years. Alcohol has been my go to when it never used to be. Extreme anxiety, depression, lack of concentration, etc. A civilian diagnosed me with adult ADHD but the military said it's not ADHD, it's anxiety and depression. I've tried meds but nothing has worked and I've been tired of being misdiagnosed. I've seen therapist for my worst moments as I've experienced more trauma over the years. Trauma makes sense because whenever trauma happens I become even more out of sorts. The past two years I have dealt with toxic family emotional abuse and a suicide death. I've been trying to just survive. I want to get back to a state prior to 2006 where I was thriving. How can I better express my need for a proper diagnosis and not be gaslighted by my Dr.? Because I'm successful they think it's not adult ADHD but the outside accomplishments doesn't match what I internalize to get there. My internal struggle is starting to over take me as I progress. I feel like I'm losing control hence the "depression" I guess. Thank you!
In response to gaslighting, I have found that with good doctors, if you find checklists for different diagnoses and explain how you meet each criteria... "Difficulty concentrating as evidenced by...." they may often take it a little more seriously. It is possible that you have multiple issues going on---so you may need to do checklists for each one to try to differentially self diagnose...sux I know. If you want to email me at support@allceus.com (reference your RUclips username) they will send me the ticket and I might be able to more effectively point you in the direction of some articles and screening instruments that could be useful. ~Dr. Snipes
@@DocSnipes 🙏🏾 Thank you.
hey man how did it go?
Children with ADHD grow up hearing thousands of negative messages from those around them, that other kids don’t get. Makes sense that depression, anxiety etc are higher.
I’m 32, & really just coming to terms with how much ADHD has been & is disrupting my life. This video was helpful. It’s good to know that the things I’ve seen as just me being bad at life for a long time...may have a different cause. Thanks for the info.
Send u love
@Doc Snipes!!! This is amazing information! I was just diagnosed with Autism and adhd last June at the age of 39. Adhd runs in my family! And addiction of all kinds runs in my family too. Thank you so much for these videos! It has helped me to realize that I'm ok and I feel validation. And a better understanding of my behaviors. Past and Present. Thank you Thank Thank you!
This was a great lecture. I always knew I was different and stuck out anywhere I went but never knew why. Diagnosed late at 32. Explained EVERYTHING
Thanks for watching. Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
I’m 22.
I struggle with depression and anxiety. I recently was told by my psychologist that a may have adhd. Now that I look into it, I realise I resonate entirely with the traits you have described.
I have recently stopped working full time due to my mental illness.
I am currently on ssri’s although I am relapsing into my depression. I’m not sure what the next step is. Every time I feel closer to a solution I find my self circling back to square one.
You need professional guidance specific to you and your needs.
You really should consult a medical doctor. Perhaps an Osteopathic Physician. osteopathic.org/what-is-osteopathic-medicine/
Perhaps, a professional counselor to work with emotional / mental side as the medical doctor helps with any physical issues.
You can find other therapists via Psychology Today search:

Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
same! SSRIs dont work, ADHD meds turned my life around.
What she says about having a “survival bag” is definitely a necessity for me. Right now. On a 3-4 hour train ride and listening to this as a distraction. After 1 hour I take a bathroom break just to get up… now 2 hours in I can NOT get comfortable. My legs hurt from sitting! My bf is just sleeping through the ride. So jealous….
This is all extremely valuable information & I want to thank you for your time & effort in making this available to the public for free. God bless your soul.
You're very welcome!
Bless you as well.

Dr Dawn thank you for this easy to grasp yet very informative video with slides. As a 50 yr ADHD old guy on good meds i totally connected with your lecture & agree with your information😁
Thank you so much for sharing that.
There’s basically NO research out there. I am glad to have found your video this is very useful 🙏🏽
So welcome. 😀
This video is amazing. Gives so much insight for me and really resonates with me. Ticks all the boxes with add/adhd.
So glad! Thanks for watching.
I finally got diagnosed at 53 after suffering from 40 yrs of addiction ...so mad at the CDC industry as well as mental health, been in and out of rehab and mental health counseling...All of the symptoms and everything she talks about hit me .3 months clean with meds,,,,so much more to over come
Thanks for watching!
Sounds not too bad sounds good i like that it has 2 parts because this adhd thing seems packed. I personally for example feel less pain with adhd meds and dopamine seems to do that maybe also serotonin. (Rember being hurt while drunk or hurt when relly relly relly happy)
It's taking over me and I wanna give up 🥺
Thanks for watching. Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
I have Inattentive type ADD. I wasn’t diagnosed until I was 37 after I sought it out on my own. I remember being a “daydreamer” in 3rd grade staring out the window and then spending too much time on detailed drawings on my homework and turning in everything late. I was in Arkansas at the time and was sent to the Principal for a spanking because of my frequent lateness with school work. 😤
:( Thanks for watching. Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
Thank U So Much. This is so concise and helpful and a few key take aways and new info that really clicked. I needed to be reminded of this. Im an adult with mixed ADHD undiagnosed until roughly 5 years ago after failing in life work and relationships. Ups n downs. Allways had addiction issues. Poly substance enthusiast no more like a freaking machine. Anyway I am 30 now and had forgot most of this stuff and eventually slumped back to the point of helplessness agajn. the worst part seems to be many friends/peers suffer trauma depression addiction issues too (cluster b's) and they project onto me while also taking advantage.. they claim ADHD isn't real or they have it too although I usually try explain the difference between PD's and ADHD and how probablyas impolitely and impulsively rude as I can hope not to be)
😀 Maybe share the video with your friends to help them understand? Thanks for watching.
you are incredible. thank you doctor🤞🏾
I appreciate that!
@@DocSnipes I mean it, your videos are incredibly informative and well thought out couple Q’s
- Do you have a podcast or an audio version of your videos available? I can’t seem to find it on Spotify
- I don’t remember you touching on processing speed disorders(psd) in adhd clients in pt 1/2.
would it be wrong to assume that anyone who suffers from adhd would also suffer from a psd or would adhd just put them at a > risk of developing a psd?
furthermore, if anxiety and depression go untreated for long periods of time this can decay a patients brain and put them at greater risk for alzheimer’s and dementia. wtbs, does a psd act as it’s own symptom of adhd and other comorbid disorders? or would you say a psd is a developing disorder that acts as a halfway point b/t mild and severe mental disorders
Ex: anxiety->psd->dementia
sorry for the long writeup but i find this fascinating i can’t wait for my behavioral psych class. i don’t expect you to fully respond in comment(or at all)but if you could find someway to address this in a similar video that’d be really cool, Keep up the good work!!
I was anxious and not sure I wanted to watch this video but I did and I’m so glad because it was very helpful. At 58 years old, to be diagnosed as an adult is a double edge sword. Just like the disorder there are good and bad aspects. The good thing is knowing what’s been affecting you your whole life that you didn’t understand but the bad thing is being flooded with all this information and overwhelmed and finding the proper treatment for this and all the other conditions you may have. Thanks for your presentation.
You’re so welcome. I appreciate you watching
re poor sleep. My child’s ADHD MD said the poor sleep can also be related to Anemia. Apparently ‘low iron’ is common in the ADHD/ADD crowd. It can create poor sleep via restless legs/periodic limb movement disorder (PLMD).
Thanks God 😍 for Alice 💖
Every single thing on that list for ADHD fits me. Are there people who actually don’t experience those things? I don’t know...I’m having an internal freak out right now. I definitely relate to the attention deficit symptoms. For example, a video this long usually takes me hours to complete because I zone out and then repeat every 10-15 minutes.
Are there people who actually don’t experience this?
No need to be afraid...I was in similar situation but I'm better now..All thanks to psychedelics which really helped me alot...I now buy from the name above ☝️☝️
And they ship too
Hi as a medical personnel I tell my clients to always checkup on their family. To know if they are okay. But I didn't have enough time for mine and I didn't notice that my child had ADHD. But I am greatful to Dr Iyhere on youtube for providing a lasting treatment for him. I appreciate you sir.
37 here and have had increasing difficulty in managing my adhd, prioritization of task being one of them. I was doing well for the past several years until I recently resigned a job due to environment and coworkers. While I was working I was able to function at quite a good level despite it being unorganized and very chaotic environment was able to have a semblance of order and operate well though I was not at the performance of none neurodiverse coworkers. Been struggling since then to remain organized in applying to other jobs interviewing and just trying to get my life in order. It's caused me a lot of anxiety because of it though I am not in dire straits what I am not good at I make up for in other areas.
Thanks for watching. Wishing you peace, health, and happiness.
spent 18 years on and off, but mainly on SSRIs anti depressants... did very little, last 6 months been on ADHD meds. Heaven X
Thanks for sharing.
That talk was really relatable
Ty for watching.
Food issues and spending can be other concerning areas. Apparently bariatric clinics find ~20% of their adult patients have undiagnosed ADHD.
Have you done any research on what happens to the mind of someone with ADHD that was diagnosed as a child but untreated that has had the worse possible life... all the way through... I was a terrible kid in school ALL symptoms of ADHD and bipolar mixed with physical abuse at home. Never learned anything from school so i dont know anything... Cant do anything... Ran away from states custody at 14 and been on my own ever since. Currently im 36 and have spent more than half of my life in jail and even prison... A REAL PRISON not jail... That was a 1 punch fight where i lost my temper and broke his nose... I dont have the power to stop myself from doing this and a million other things i do... But this thing got me sent to the worse prison in tennessee when i was just 18... Prison is no joke, ppl have no idea how messed up life is in there especially someone with all of my problems!! So i get out 3 yrs later and im scared to even be around ppl AT ALL so ive spent most of the last 15 yrs either alone hiding from ppl using drugs , heroin for 8 yrs then meth for a few more yrs... ALWAYS smoked weed..... Or ive been jail mostly for the same things over and over... Driving on suspended license (maybe 30 times) Possession of marijuana (also around 30) i just never thought to leave the weed at the house, no matter how many YEARS ive spent in jail over it! Never would go see probation officers because of my anxiety, plus i was always dirty for weed which i LITERALLY can't live without, so i just never went... 10-1yr jail sentences served in a crappy jail since i got out of prison 15 yrs ago... No friends no family... Currently looking to going back to prison for 8 yrs over drug possession because ive had so many in the past. They gave me 1 last shot at a 1yr Christian based rehab and because i couldnt get all the work done as fast as they wanted it done (lot of bookwork from the bible and various recovery books everyday) im so drained from lack of sleep it makes my ADHD symptoms worse i pretty much cant do anything cant remember anything i cant have a conversation with ANYBODY because i forget what im talking about every 10 seconds... ok its takin me 7 hrs to write this out so im gonna go... HELP...please what do i do
Woow. I am so sorry. You need to get some help. You going to prison now? Can you get some help there? Do They offer any mental health support?
Go to a doctor and ask to get a referral to an psychiatrist who specialises in ADHD presentation it sounds like you have all the classic symptoms
Try out watching some of "Jordan B Peterson" videos on youtube. It will help you.
Same goes for Dr. Gabor Maté. This could help you, too.
I understand you completely , my boyfriend is just like you struggling with sleep , life, relationships, never going to probation because of overwhelming feelings, fighting new charges and i struggle with bipolar and ptsd. Its hARD to be patience because of his feelings and rejection of life. He got addicted to pills so who do we trust , doctors drug you and the law convicts you instead of really helping or understanding that people struggle with mental issues.
Hello What and where's the Correct medication for ADHD symptoms ALL of them especially they should make the damn best or better medication s on the MARKET now
That was one BIG cup ! :)
lol. Thanks for watching.
With trauma vs ADHD, is it possible that one can createthe other? Eg: the experience of a traumatic/disrupted childhood exacerbate ADHD -or- undiagnosed ADHD leading to trauma through invalidation/conflict through other's frustrations?
Ty
So if a person is depressed, has no energy or motivation for anything in life anymore and suspects they may have undiagnosed ADHD why do doctors only prescribe antidepressants that don't help when it seems the problem is low dopamine & norepinephrine?
You may want to try a D.O. They have a different perspective in their training. www.piedmont.org/living-better/your-doctor-the-difference-between-an-md-and-do
That's because it's the best they can do
But I've tested psychedelics and it has worked like magic..I now buy from the name above☝️☝️and they ship too
Yeah, SSRI's won't do anything for the adhd person. They are futile.
Isn’t adhd a result of trauma, as Gabor Mate suggests. I’m confused it seems you’re saying it’s not, the two are separate but overlap slightly.
Can you please post the link for the James Web video for the Asperger's misdiagnosis?
View entire presentation here - videos.med.wisc.edu/videos/32540
In 2000 I was told I had ADD. Is this the same as adhd(inactive)?
ADHD has a hyperactivity component, and inactive means the person is not symptomatic anymore.
Sorry dyslexic or brain condition I used the wrong word xx just struggling so much
I think I have adhd but due to being nearly 40 they have told me to just live with it :( so add is now adhd?
@@craftylucinda6589 Hey dear did you perhaps mean ADHD-inattentive? If so then yes, (someone correct me if I'm wrong) I believe the DSM has changed several times over the past decade or so. ADD (the inattentive variety) is now grouped under ADHD. There is hyper, inattentive and a combination.
Yes it is

Noises. Sometimes alot of NOISE HELPS FOCUS ON SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT LIKE DRIVING.
why is it trauma or adhd....surely can be both/?
Yes, they can co-occur, but if the ADHD symptoms develop after the trauma or adverse childhood experiences, the behaviors are often better explained by PTSD / cPTSD The diagnostic guidelines indicate to not give both diagnoses if the ADHD symptoms are fully explained by cPTSD
@@DocSnipes thanks for your response. I guess it depends on one's definition of trauma etc. Perhaps i've been misdiagnosed with adhd....who knows. There are theories by the likes of Gabor Mate...saying that trauma could be seen as a contributing factor to the living with adhd. Is this something you distance yourself from?
Being an adult who was diagnosed when I was 45yrs old, I have to tell you that even though I'm on medication your video had me drifting off and not paying attention. If you want ADHD people to be included in your presentations, I'd advise you to add some moving graphics of some sort to keep us focused on what you are talking about. I honestly wanted to listen to your video, but within 3 minutes I'd totally lost interest. Hopefully this is helpful criticism and not intended to say your work is bad. Because I couldn't concentrate long enough to find out either way.
I always increase playback spees
Just do something else whole you listen. I've been listening to chunks on my free time while I do other stuff.
