I was severely traumatized years ago as a teenage, got diagnosed with ADHD, spent my whole life fighting ADHD. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder, not until my husband recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean, much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.
Hey mates! Can you help with the source? I suffer severe anxiety, panic and depression and I usually take prescription medicine, but they don't always help. Where can I find those psilocybin mushrooms? I'm really interested in treating my mental health without Rxs. I live in Australia don't know much about these. I'm so glad they helped you. I can't wait to get them too. Really need a reliable source 🙏
YES sure of mycologist Pedroshrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, addiction. Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I'm so very happy for you mate, Psilocybin is absolutely amazing, the way it shows you things, the way it teaches you things. I can not believe our world and our people shows less interest about it's helpfulness to humanity. It's love. The mushrooms heals people by showing the truth, it would be so beneficial for so many people, especially politicians and the rich who have lost their way and every other persons out there.
I found this to be informative and helpful, thank you. Professionally dx'd ADHD (twice, 20+ years apart), unofficial ASD. Been considering ASD for decades after my ADHD dx, but never really had any good sources. Took _lots_ of online tests, though. And yes I was misdiagnosed BP 2 before the adhd dx. Spent a lot of years going back and forth to a bipolar support group and I had almost nothing in common with anyone in that group. My experiences were so completely different.
Oh. M. G! I have been describing for my entire LIFE that I have a “war” constantly going on inside my head. Though I was finally diagnosed ADHD 3 years ago, I have been wondering for the past year if I might also have Autism, despite my symptoms never looking like the stereotypical ones and always getting told “you look so normal” (I actually raised BOTH my hands when you asked that!). This video has confirmed for me that I finally feel confident enough to self diagnose myself as AuDHD! I have already been working for YEARS to find a specialist in this in my area that is affordable, because I suspected my daughter of being both before I had ever heard of the term AuDHD (in fact, I've always thought my daughter was autistic since a baby, but have never found a doctor yet to believe me because she again didn’t show some of the stereotypical symptoms - she was however finally diagnosed ADHD 2 years ago). Sorry, I’m rambling! Your in-depth descriptions were incredibly enlightening, and were EXACTLY what I was looking for in my research of trying to find out how the two affect each other and “appear” to cancel out. I would find it amazing if your research was considered for the next version of the DSM (whenever that would be)!
I'm sixty-eight years old and finally figured out how to call a cease fire! I figured out, if I let my brain know that I am going to an ADHD activity, that I will give autism time later to recover, but to let ADHD have some fun and vise versa. It has been working (most of the time) for about 8 months now. Sometimes they fight, but it's less intense for me. Maybe this will help. I totally get it! I felt and described the exact same thing and didn't know how the rest of the world could work with that so well! Love your comment!
Found the stickers on the laptop highly distracting...😂 My problem. Excellent content! Good research, observation, and distillation of the subject matter.
Fantastic distillation and presentation, ta! I ended up taking five pages of notes, for autistic me and my AuDHD wife (both self-diagnosed, but the evidence is pretty compelling).
Super helpful and informative! I have been dx with ADHD recently and therapists over the years mentionned some autistic traits of mine repeatedly (different therapists from different countries). When diagnosed with ADHD, some of it made a lot of sense but some of it was not as clear. Did a lot of research and tests online and have a 135 score for raads-r which... Now makes a lot of sense in the dual / chaotic / contrasting internal struggles and fights I'm having since as long as I can remember. But I'm struggling to feel legit and to explain things to people, even my spouse and family that are seeing the high functioning masking part of it. Looking forward to your book!
Thanks for the video! I’m diagnosed inattentive ADHD, but really suspecting ASD as well. There’s 100% a feel for a lot of the ADHD traits, and quite a few ASD traits. I was tested for ASD and actually got very close to official diagnostic score, but not 100% and I feel that was because my ADHD masks my ASD at times. I did do the test 100% honest even if I knew in some questions what was more autism related or not. Anyways, for what is worth, I consider myself self diagnosed AuDHD and love the content you put out there. Thank you! :)
I had the same result. I was diagnosed with ADHD but for autism I had an elevated score that didn't reach diagnostic criteria. And my evaluator said the main reason she thought I didn't have autism was because I had to interpret a picture book and I was able to interpret the feelings of the characters sufficiently. That apparently negated everything else. Then my therapist who has a high support needs male autistic child said there was no way I was autistic. I keep coming back to it though. Mostly because I feel like my "self" doesn't follow patterns because I feel like I'm sometimes everything and sometimes nothing and I want there to be a pattern so bad and no one I talk to can relate to that.
@ Same, for me, what killed my diagnosis was that I have way too much empathy of how others feel to be an autistic. I’d say that’s even more of a pointer of autism, I’m way to emphatic and let others emotions affect me so much more than most people do. I love my therapist and psychiatrist, and they’ve helped me a lot, teaching me about ADHD and how to be able to work around it a bit, and specially stopping all the self gaslighting, however, lately I’ve really been thinking about finding an autistic therapist. Someone who may be able to fully understand me? Not sure if there’s any where I live, but certainly looking for them!
@@enduringbird how annoying. A high support needs male autistic child could not be further from a grown up audhd woman. autism is such a huge spectrum. experiences like these make me so mad at psychiatrists
@@suribepe i'm glad you have a great therapist and psychiatrist but your experience is also something that annoys me so much - this fricking stereotype that autistic people have no or low empathy. because the opposite can be true as well and i feel like either empathy has nothing to do with neurodivergence or there's a completely different root cause. anyway this field seems so poorly understood
@@mandarinadreux9572 Agreed, if anything, I’d say that being overly empathetic with others to the point their emotions really affect you, is probably part of all this.
I'm still sifting through how much ADHD might be mixed into my autism. One of the early signs, though, (before I started giving much thought to being on the spectrum) was taking an autism self test in which I scored high but not quite reaching the threshold and thinking 'hm, I would have scored a lot higher if I weren't chaos incarnate'. :-j
I'm literally crying!!! I need to be able to speak with you. 🙏 I started researching ADHD for my son who has presented allll of these symptoms his entire life since about 1st grade I will say I'm in awe I believe I his mother is Austistic. I'm shook and need to set up a call and started the process for ADHD referral already thro my son's primary. Wow. A whole new world is opening up in my head. How can we schedule a chat?
I spent a couple of years thinking I am definitely autistic. However I recently got an ADHD diagnosis and have convinced myself I'm too "normal" to also be autistic. However ADHD alone doesn't seem to quite fit my lived experience. I have so much imposter syndrome but I'm starting to feel I may be audhd despite not having stereotypical autisic presentation. I truly appreciate this type of content to help sift through my experiences and understand what's going on
I think thethoughtspot may be both adhd and autistic, I recall her talking about her autistic traits becoming more apparent after being treated for adhd, leading to the autism diagnosis. She does talk mostly about autism though.
It really could be AuDHD... I was diagnosed with autism when I was younger, but I find lately that sometimes some ADHD traits sound relatable too? I definitely feel like I probably have more autism than ADHD... can't tell if my losing track of time really is as bad as it is for other people, because sometimes it seems that way but other times probably not, but maybe it's only not too bad because I've almost always had a clock to look at to help me keep track of time, and obviously when I don't have a clock nearby I can't remember whether I lost track of time or not? I definitely was super surprised when I found out that some people actually have an internal sense of time and can tell how many minutes something takes without literally counting the seconds the whole time, though! (Also... wanting the autistic schedule but having the ADHD inability to commit to it or something? Plus I don't really have one big special interest, even the things I've been a fan of for a long time I don't really feel like I'm some kind of specialist in... (examples being Doctor Who and Minecraft RUclips, both media in which basically Anything Can Happen so there's always a fresh story concept to think about...) Yeah I've always preferred to move on to the next thing... the two cancelling each other out on the outside while causing chaos and conflict within... yeah, probably, actually. Huh.) Thanks for this!
Yeah, adhd seems likely. Talked with a friend yesterday about it (he's probably got adhd too) and he told me he doesn't think I have adhd or autism but also admitted he doesn't know much about adhd in women and is not informed about the current understanding of neurodivergency (he's very much like "don't self-diagnose, let a professional do it"). But as I am a girl, I have learnt to not exhibit the adhd behaviours as much, though i still very much *feel* it. I used too have a lot more "symptoms" like forgetting stuff, being incredibly unorganised, no planning capabilities, no prioritising etc etc. But I've developed some hard coping strategies that I've forced myself to follow (e.g. reduce my stuff so I can't physically produce clutter anymore), so in a way, I've become too "smart" to have adhd now and to get properly diagnosed. how ironic. I do relate to almost everything you said are symptoms and even to the dsm a lot. Maybe there's autism in the mix. Maybe. i am quite sensitive (in general but mainly to sounds and other people's "presences" and their emotions). But as I understand it, this can be a thing with adhd too? I haaaate how the dsm currently defines autism. It's so discriminating and reeks of poor understanding of the whole matter. What I really don't understand is that hypo- and hypersensibilities to sounds, emotions, stimulation etc both can be indicators of autism. But someone who is hypersensitive to many things will have like the opposite presentation of someone who is hyposensitive to many things? In my mind that's two completely opposite outcomes and calling both "autism" seems unhelpful. Same with the thinking processes - having highly literal thinking or highly metaphorical thinking is literally the opposite thinking style! How does this make sense? Somebody help me pls The thing about the sleep patterns is very interesting. During my school years (from age 11-18) I generally slept like 5,5 hours on average because i always stayed up late because i loved the night time and the quiet it brought. And i was completely fine doing that. I have recently gone through a phase where i needed a constant 10 hours of sleep for about 2 months. now I'm at 6 hours again. Also that delayed sleeep phase YES! I've told friends this my whole life - i don't get tired before 2 in the morning. That's my natural sleeping time. And then, this narrow window of tolerance you're speaking about, oh my god yes. I love action but I also love chilling but then i can only chill for a day then i get restless but when i do a lot of shit i just want to isolate and do nothing and the cycle repeats. "But you're so normal" hahaha yes, damn you nailed it! This is exactly what I described in the beginning of my comment with my friend who doesn't believe I could have adhd. as i suspected before, i think it might be audhd. Now. In Germany where I live psychiatrists are like 20 years behind in this whole topic and I don't know if I really want to put myself through that in order to receive a diagnosis.
Both…. Only officially diagnosed with ADHD. When I can afford it I’ll get tested for autism. I’ve gotten a score of 95 or higher on the online tests I’ve taken though.
@@CristinB-rh4jk it’s not real 👍 learn the history of the condition, how it was introduced into diagnostic manuals, and the history of pharmaceutical influence ❤️ stay away from the evil channel which preys upon people such as yourself.

I'm diagnosed with autism currently on an NHS waiting list for an ADHD assessment but waiting lists are very long (like literally years) and I trying figure out if I have ADHD as well as autism or not I definitely have a lot of executive function difficulties but I don't know if that would be part of my autism diagnosis and jve often described my energy levels qnd emotions like a cola can that has been shaken but not opened so there is this pressure inside that I can't describe best I can do is it feels like everything is trapped inside and I don't know how to get it out
I have been misdiagnosed with Bipolar and bpd. Lol i went to be screened for autism i havent got it apparently and was told to learn more about adhd but theres cross overs and my children are audihd i fit into many things but just dont fit a full criteria of anything so im sort of lost in limbo?
I'm Def a lovely blend of the 2 but I don't have a doctor to test or refer and i can't afford a diagnosis from a specialist therefore I can't get the help I need 😢
Side note I have recently been experiencing new things like at night I crave crunchy things wether it be kettle chips, frozen chocolate or peanut butter toast and then also when I get really stressed my eyes will get heavy and I fall asleep and no mater what I do I pass out which isnt good at all at all 😅
For now i can recommend you two books, they were super helpful to me. How to take care of you autistic self. And unmasked. I hope you will get the help you need soon.❤
Im not sure if I could say RSD was just a trauama reaponse. As long as I can remember ive avoided anything that could get me laughed at, renected or critiqued. My family is all very musical. I love music, I love singing. I used to olay guitar. But tell me to do anything in front of anyone, and I wont. This includes freinds and fsmily. I eas in a school musical once. And I had like.. 2 speaking lines. I basically fsiled the audition because they decided to hold a pizza party for some of us right before the audition. And we didn't have the scripts very long. And of course with working memory issues.. And this goes as far back as elementary school. Before the harcore rejection of middle school started. So it seems like, at least for some people. It could just be an inait trait (AuDhd here) Also I was ABSOLUTELY a teachers pet. I wnded up deopping out of school anyway. But I had 0 help in school. I wasnt diagnosed unfil 25. And I also have LDs. So if you ever want to hear stories about Audhd with LDs atruggling in school with no help. I'll happily offer. But being a teacher pet misigated some of the negatives of not being able to school properly. Like, it even got me out of having to being that stupid crying baby project home. I also had to see multiple neuropsychs because of unwillingness to diagnose me. Because girl, I guess?

Where do I reach this dude? If possible can I find him on Google
Yes he's Pedroshrooms. I know few friends who no longer suffer ptsd and anxiety with the help of shrooms. Never had to take shrooms after then.
The narrow window of tolerance is def the hardest part!! This goes for temperature, sounds, foods, clothes, ugh on and on
