Hannah NEEDS to make this a series. As a dietitian, this is The Best BEST explanation of how to be okay in the kitchen I have ever heard.
So many lightbulb moments!! Thank you!!
Please!
Yes yes yes please do please 🙏 😊
Yes!!!!!!!
I would actually watch it
"Ah, I know it's simple, but you will make it hard!"- My ADHD, to me.
100th like :,)
Other way around surely?

I think what they meant was that the ADHD is what makes things hard, not you yourself!
"So you're basically saying separate feeding yourself from cooking."
Thank you for giving me the permission to do this, this makes so much more sense to me.
How to ADHD made a collab with Hannah hart. My life is complete
Skylar same
YES!
EXACTLY
Skylar it is!
Ikr
I walk into my kitchen
My brain goes "aaaaaaahh"
I walk back out again
rebecca finn lol, me too!
Lol
This happens to me several times every evening 😂
Wowwwwwww I didn't think my behaviors in the kitchen were relevant to my ADHD! I always wondered why I claimed to enjoy it but only make an event out of it once in a while. My life changed when you guys said "separate cooking and feeding yourself". Even before my diagnosis, I was always trying to diminish or minimize some of my habits, but your channel is slowly teaching me how to recognize and *adapt* to my habits and make them work for me.
Thank you!!
yeah a lot of us do that!
same
OMG YESS YES YESS
Clean up tip! Fill your sink with warm, soapy water and as you finish using a utensil or bowl or whatever, plop it in the sink. This makes handwashing easier and saves on water/time. If you are baking something in the oven for your meal, use the time its in the oven to wash the dishes!
+randombut2erfly love this!!!
this is great! Thank you!
I wash few plates and several utensils at a time before I get really bored. I like cooking tho.
This is exactly how I do it! I'll often even start washing utensils I no longer need while still cooking.
Yes! Especially when cooking things that have you wait between things (“simmer for 10 minutes”) I start doing some cleanup while I wait!
Jessica's reactions is exactly me every time I've tried to learn to cook and ended up continuing eating hot pockets. This is so helpful!!!
Daniel Baljeu same
God haven't had hot pockets in a while
100% Not 99, 100.
Just cereal for me lol
Never again will I be able to think of Hot Pockets without thinking of Jim Gaffegan's stand up routine about hot pockets. 😂
I sort of wish we could teach ADHD kids and Adults in the same way Hannah is literally *coaching* an ADHD easily distracted Cooking Student
I'm a brain in culinary school haha
My recommendation for tackling any recipie is
1. Cut Evreything first
2. then measure everything
3. Finaly start cooking!
Dividing the steps helps you not get lost (and even keeps the kitchen cleaner)
Good luck!
Ok, that sound good, i will try this out..
Yeah, nothing like when the recipe says: "When the meat is brown on both sides, throw in the juliette carrots and the apples in 0,5 cm cubes...." The pan is seething, oil spitting hot, the carrots are not even peeled ... PANIC!
Yep! Do it like the cooking shows with little pre-measured bowls of everything ready to go! Sometimes I do the chopping etc. while another really long step happens (like waiting for the water to boil, which takes a while, or preheating the oven), so I don't accidentally double the time it takes to make the thing, but it's really helpful overall to keep things orderly.
Skip the measuring. Dificult for adhd brains. I dont measure anything (working memory) and most every damn thing i make is tasty af. I cant think of a time i made something that wasn't yummy because i didn't measure the amounts correctly, not saying ive never burned a thing from forgetting..
@@cnj67 What they dont tell you is, this is simply an estimate. It doesnt actuall matter if your carrots and apples are in .75 cubes or .5 or .2 or julienned, because for each of those you just adjust something else, expect a different look, etc.
I read the recipes first and mentally simplify, remember the important parts and adjust to my own intuition.
Intuition is KEY for ADHDers. I wonder how many ADHDers are chefs.
It also helps to cook that fancy meal that takes a day BUT make more of it and freeze the extra portion so that two days later it seems novel again... and you don't have to cook it! It's there in the freezer, only to be warmed up! I noticed that non-ADHD people who are chronically busy also use this trick: my aunt who is a doctor has Cooking Sunday and Wednesday afternoons, when she tries new and healthy recipes and makes them large enough to keep her well-fed for the coming days.
Yes! Batch cooking is so good! I batch cook chilli so there is always something there in the freezer.
@@SomeoneBeginingWithI
Indeed ! The meal in the freezer , compliments of yesterdays efforts , is a REWARD for me 😊
I grew up with very busy parents and we cook 3 big meals on the weekends and rotate them through. On Friday we usually have left-overs, pasta, take out or "bread time" (I'm German). Meal prep is the way to go! Saves so much time each day.
I always have at least 2 portions of a pre-cooked meal /or part of it in the freezer for the times when I am just not interested in cooking. When I wait until I am hungry to get motivated to cook it's often too late and I already feel like being on the brink of death. So this helps a lot.
People who can plan like that amaze me. I make a huge lasagne and think it’s going to last many days and my son eats it in 24 hours 😂
Can you imagine though
Friend: "hey you wanna hang out?"
Me: "sorry I have to go home and cook a meal"
Friend: "ok...so what about after you eat"
Me: "oh....there is no after"
This is what it's like to care for a family.😂😭
"You can come along and sit on the kitchen chair." It's nice not being alone in the kitchen. Though you get to choose what podcast to listen to alone.
said every mom ever
F that! Lol suddenly I have an excuse not to cook! My answer is “yes! Let’s go eat!”
OMG! I wasn't going to watch this cause I'm 37 and "I can cook" but I totally identify with this video! Thanks ladies, you are both awesome!
The limit thing works so well! Some of the jobs I've worked that I've loved the most are when I've been a cook in a busy kitchen. The fast pace and multi-tasking aspects keep me so locked in to getting things done. BUT I've always struggled to cook for myself at home. The grazing aspect and the challenging on the basics part really helps me cook for myself. A game I'll play when I'm cooking a meal, even if it's just the one meal I actually sit down and eat all day, I try to get as many colors into the dish as I can while still keeping it tasty. It's been one of the best ways for me to make a more balanced meal than just six eggs with some salt and pepper and garlic powder for dinner. Still trying to figure out how to get myself to do the dishes afterwards tho...
I had NO IDEA this was a problem that affects anyone else! i also have arrowroot powder i have used only twice...
hahaha YASSSSS
marisadaniela6 me too :D i have a whole bottle if soy sauce at home... and also i just realised that i cooked maby a 28 different meals in 30 days... WEEEELLLLL.....
OMG. I have unused arrowroot powder, too. The struggle is real.
I have had a bag of citric acid for 6 years because I made mozzarella. Once.
just google arrowroot powder to use it in other things- if you like the taste
I also cant cook if its boring so i listen to a podcast!!
right?! I watch Netflix while cooking
My plan is I get bored with my podcasts
Same. I put on Shark Tank!!
I just dance. Lol
I've only just discovered this channel. I have severe adult ADHD. THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!! *CRY!!* FINALLY!!! Someone who processes things like I do!! And can explain them in a way I understand!! *cries harder* Until now, I've never been able to find someone who could explain things to me without me feeling like an idiot because I couldn't follow what they were saying. Hannah, the way you broke down the lists.. THANK YOU!!! And Jessica, THANK YOU SO MUCH for verbalizing the panic that goes through my head every time I have to plan a meal! I am SO showing this to my man so he can finally see what my head does to me. Sending you two the BIGGEST hugs!!!!
Same here
me three...!
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH THIS VIDEO HELPED ME. Omg, I've been able to cook happily. I never thought I would be able to cook so much >_< !!! Granted I'm currently at home these days on vacation but I'm amazed at how far I've come. I cooked 5 different dishes within the past week-and-a-halfish which is more than I could ever say I've done on my own.
6:50 life changing moment!
Also, regarding *CLEANUP...
My husband and I have an agreement. I do the meal planning, prep, cooking, shopping, etc. And he keeps the dishes and cookware clean and does most gardening and lawn duties! We consider it an equal share of the "Feeding ourselves" realm of responsibility.
I actually didn't know that Hannah Hart has ADHD. I have this condition alongside having cerebral palsy, so that makes it a lot more challenging to build up independence when it comes to cooking. Because my left side of my body is much weaker than my right side, it's hard for me to do tasks that involve me to use 2 hands. This is why I'm so glad that there are different types of kitchen equipment that are modified to allow people with disabilities like me to cook for ourselves. I have sautéed peorogies on a skillet before as well as cook macaroni and cheese, I've also had been using this awesome kitchen gadget called an air fryer. I mostly stay away from the oven because I'm pretty sensitive to heat.
waitwaitwaitwait. Someone explain to me how "feeding yourself" and "cooking" are separate. what's the point of cooking then? *mind implodes slightly*
Right???
The idea was even if I don't have time to cook, I should still be able to feed myself without ordering takeout. So having snacky stuff around is good! I can also make some simple recipes I'm already comfortable with, which will expand as I get more comfortable cooking. In the meantime, gonna limit myself to one big new recipe a week so feeding myself doesn't become a huge time suck.
oh OOOH. So, over time there should be a variety of meals you have learned? That actually sounds kinda fun XD. Thanks for the clarification.
(literally saw the notification for this video as I was making my grocery list. The hardest thing about college is actually feeding yourself with something other then ice cream.)
off subject i wanna become a patron and i wanna so the post but it just cost to much is there any way you can make it so you can see some post for less money and how far are you willing to go for school visits { i also want to be able to have a conversation with you and other brains that you will be more likely to respond to }
I have always loved to cook but the thing that gets me is if there is clutter or lots of dishes in the sink or a mess in the kitchen. I become so distracted by the clutter I become overwhelmed and walk out or end up doing dishes instead of cooking.
I had no idea Hannah hart had adhd
joey mancuso same
astridb1028 depends on what your ig is
joey mancuso I don't think she's diagnosed
Jackson Catlett she is. She talks about it in her book lol
This video is literally so helpful. Easily one of the most helpful ADHD videos I have ever seen. Thank you so much! I have always felt completely incompetent in the kitchen. Thankfully my non-ADHD fiance has taken over mealtime. Now I feel inspired to gain some of that kitchen confidence. Thanks again(:
I actually do the cooking and shopping for my family (my parents and myself). I will typically make mostly familiar recipes with one NEW recipe a week that I save for a night where I won't be pressed for time (like Saturday night). And I use the "multiply time" rule. And even if I fail, I'm not afraid to try again later, too! My mom was an experimenter, so I learned a lot from her. It's not uncommon for me to open spices and just sniff things to decide on what to use to season what I'm making.
I plan ahead for the whole week and make a schedule for meals, and then I make a list based on that schedule.
YES! That's what she was suggesting, I thought it was brilliant. ONE big new recipe a week, otherwise work with what you've got.
I agree with Hannah! How I keep cooking interesting: I always buy loads of vegetables and fruits in the grocery store, and basics that don't spoil. When I am hungry, I try to come up with a meal based on what I have in my home. This limits my options. If I miss one ingredient, I will go and find it in the store next door.
Another challenge you can put yourself: try to limit the number of POTS and pans you use to limit the cleaning after
I would love to see what her advice would be if you had said you were a meal person, because I like to graze when I feel like I'm starving, but I am a sucker for daily hot meals. Also, I get really overwhelmed really easily, and if I can't think of something that is healthy, as well as quick and simple to make and that I haven't already been eating for 3 days in a row, then I end up just eating whatever is quickest and easiest to throw in the microwave (usually something really unhealthy).
I'm so sad there is no responses to this because I deal with the same problem, if I'm Hungry and know I need a meal but have nothing and don't know where to start and also don't want to just eat junk it freaks me out and on bad days Kickstarts an anxiety attack or a crying fit
@@throughcolouredglasses9300 I thankfully have an ADHD mother who has coping mechanisms of her own so I've learned from her a few tips. We still end up eating takeout sometimes, veggies go bad in the fridge, and the sink is always a disaster, but everyone DOES get fed. One thing is to think of a meal that you really enjoy but isn't super time intensive to make. Try to keep the ingredients on hand or at least accessible for this if you can, as a backup. If you can make a meal plan for the week once a week that's a bonus, I am bad at this but when we've done it it does help - but don't buy all the groceries once a week, because then if plans change you don't have extra unused groceries. Have a shortlist of meals that you feel comfortable with in your head, and keep the ingredients lists as photos in your phone. This way you can always go to the store easily on your way home. Mine are something like this: macaroni and cheese 'shepherd's pie (made with hamburger), basil pesto pasta, savoury mince, soup from a can and toast, pasta carbonara. None of these take a lot of time to make, and are relatively easy and simple to prepare. If I'm hungry and need to eat something there's cheese or dates in the fridge to snack on for a sugar boost to get me through (or sometimes chocolate, I'll be honest). My backup meal for when I'm overwhelmed is porridge because I'm Australian and oats + milk on the stove just works for me. My mum does scrambled eggs on toast. Both recipes use ingredients that you can keep in the house (basics list) - if you're a toast person, keep bread in the freezer to toast in emergencies. Milk, eggs and oats are cheap and easy to keep on hand. Bonus is that they're healthy! I've been there with the crying fits, and I keep my cooking from becoming a chore by trying out new recipes regularly (limited to simple ones except on weekends where it doesn't matter) but if you can put boundaries around what you cook most of the time it really does help.
I was only diagnosed last year at age 27. The more I learn about ADHD - especially people's experience with being an ADHD brain - the more I'm like omg I didn't even know that I have thought patterns like this! I'm still in the Big Regret Stage of my diagnosis but still hearing other's experiences following how they find coping strategies is amazingly comforting. I know that through knowledge and hard work in the future I'll be able to be the person I've always known I could be. Thanks so much Hannah and Jessica.
OMG, Hannah, you're hilarious! I love the way you think! I can soo relate with that video, thanks girls for the great adivices! Does Hannah Have a RUclips channel, because I would just love to go watch your stuff too!!!
She DOES!! ruclips.net/user/MyHarto
Thaaanksss!
Elvann My Drunk Kitchen is truly hilarious.
I'm sure many... And I do mean many brains will have this video on a playlist! The feeding yourself Vs cooking really made so much sense it was like, heck why didn't I think of that!!
I swear I watch this video over and over again because I forget, and it changes my life every time lmaoo
This is amazing. She was the best person to help you with your kitchen challenges. It’s a problem she’s identified within herself and found the solution that works for her and is now sharing it with others. Being a Hannah fan as well, I completely forgot she too has adhd. What an amazing collab!!! 🤩💜
I cannot begin to describe how helpful this has been for me! At 46 years old I have just completely rethought this process, and it suddenly makes so much more sense ❤️
As someone who developed an eating disorder because of the exact road blocks to cooking you mention in this video, I'm SO glad to have found this. Thank you so much for putting this content out into the world!
I have TWO ricers...... don't ask me where either of them are.
what do you even DO with a ricer?
Ricers make the BEST mashed potatoes!
How do they work? Also I love that rice is in your name and you have two ricers :D
A ricer is like a Play-Doh extruder, or a giant garlic-press -- you put chunks of cooked potatoes in it and squeeze. The cooked potatoes come out like little rice pellets -- hence the name "ricer."
Ricers make fluffy, lump-free mashed potatoes.
I wonder if I can use baked potatoes instead of boiled potatoes?...... [wanders off....]
Oooooo must. get. a. ricer.
This was so helpful! This is my daily struggle. The grazing bit made me feel a lot better. I'm proud of myself if I cook once a week and eat off my freezer and snack the rest of the time. Also you can buy cooked meat like a rotisserie chicken and use the meat in all sorts of meals. Makes a good short cut.
When I shop for groceries I plan on getting rotisserie chicken and maybe the sides that go with it. It's expensive, but I will have entire meals for me (live alone) for a few days.
Jessica talking to Hannah in this video and not committing to things is literally me every day
This is so helpful!!!
I blame myself for not being able to eat “properly”.
My therapist said any food is better than no food. It helped taking the guilty away.
Separate cooking from feeding myself is another level of freeing!
Thank you so so much❤️
This ended up being such a GREAT VIDEO!!! Cooking/feeding myself and my husband is something I struggle with a lot. So thanks so much for shedding light on this with the amazing Hannah!!
Omg. This is something i tried to do for 2 years now on my own but each time ive gotten distracted, confused and bored! 😭😐 THANK YOU, HANNAH!!!
Hannah
Woah, this just blew my mind...a separate grocery list for your staples, then if you have a specific meal in mind that's another trip entirely. Thank you, I meal prep, but not efficiently, this was invaluable ❤
Aaaw... Two videos, with two of my favorite RUclipsrs, within an hour??!! You spoil us!!! ;D
d'awww! Yeah we thought we'd shoot both while I was there, she was so much fun to work with!
Thank you for making this channel you have helped me so much
This video... may have just changed my life!! I have been struggling with feeding myself for a WHILE, and was literally just about to overhaul my plan for cooking/prepping/eating. But as usual, I have big, lofty, impressive goals that are WAY too big to happen right away, and I wasn't sure how to break them down. This video has shown me how. The light fully came on in my brain (just like yours did a couple of times, I think!), and everything makes perfect sense. I actually love to cook, but for the past few years I have been more and more overwhelmed when it comes to cooking and end up making a lot of unhealthy choices. It doesn't HAVE to be complicated! I am also a grazer, and yet I seem stuck in thinking that I need to make (at the very least) two proper meals a day, and for those, I always end up thinking in "big recipe" terms. But no, I can super easily make myself a bagged Caesar salad that I top with pre-made chicken! Easy and delicious!
I love your videos, "Oh, this is actually a thing," and I know that's the reason you make these videos. You really do change lives. So thank you, Jessica!
This was awesome, thank you both. ❤❤❤ Please do more of these Jessica
Jessica can you make another video about falling asleep and stay asleep, I take 2 hours falling asleep and then waking up at 3 in the morning
Agreed. This would be really helpful.
Eleanor Aughey what really helped for me, was to make a bedtime routine. It might be a bit obvious but still: I always take a shower, brush my teeth, put on body lotion, put on pyjamas. And I then just slowly get tired during the process as my body is used to sleeping after this routine. Works like a charm! The only con is that I now also feel sleepy when I shower during the day lol :)
Eleanor Aughey just dont sleep... i cant ever sleep but than i realised if i sleep as few as possible i can sleep very well... my father also does it this way... i am 15 and sleep less than 6hours i do this for 1.5 years now and the body remembers this pattern... so now sleeping works perfectly
Greetings
What really helps me is ASMR rain sounds app with earbuds. This gives me the white noise that I really need to stop thinking at night. It's helped my daughter get better sleep and the randomness of the rain patterns will keep your brain distracted enough to pass out quickly
Evi - that's some good advice. Thanks.
Wow this is more helpful than I ever imagined it could be.
This was such a great video, I honestly felt like I knew you both in real life and that you just ‘got’ me and how I think. Thank you for allowing me to see your true selves and for being okay with who you are and how you function.
I love this channel! Thank you so much!!!
I LOVE to cook! I like the meal planning apps *drool*
Question: Has anyone else experienced "the CYCLE" ? It's definitely not Bipolar II, but it's the highs and lows: new project/new phased in life/new Monday/New job (whatever).... life is good, positivity & openness.... then slowly getting overwhelmed... then the "life comes crashing down" day/whatever..... then the "recovery" -- days or weeks of LOW PRODUCTIIVITY.... then back on the horse. Who knows how to shorten the "low productivity" part of the cycle?
I'm lucky that my whole family takes turns cooking, so we can always put a meal together. When I cook there's just a lot more mess! But that's where our family rule comes in handy "I did the cooking, you clean up!"
My problem has always been over-eating and emotional eating, I know that's a common ADHD problem too. Food=Dopamine, keeping getting that hit then you stop and WOOAH your full! Bored an hour later? SNACK SNACK SNACK 🙄
I love this! Thank you both!
I'm so glad hannah introduced me to this channel! When I found out in her book that she has ADHD I was so comforted and excited to know that she had the same experiences as me, and now I have a new resource!
This video was simultaneously hilarious and helpful, that's a job well done i'd say :D
HANNAH MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!! :D
I really like your videos they really help me 😀
yay so glad to hear that! Do you have a favorite?
How to ADHD I didn't write the original comment but I wanted to let you know how helpful you've been to me! My favorite video is ADHD in girls: recognizing the symptoms because it was so helpful to understand how it actually effected me differently as a child than my older brother. But my favorite tips are using Habitica, saying thank you instead of I'm sorry, the paper monster, and the uses of fidget toys! I use these tips every day of my life since I've watched the videos!!! Thank you so much Jessica!!!!
I've been an avid fan of Hannah for years, and it was amazing to watch her in this video. She was so smart and helpful and I could see the growth since I've started watching her content. All the thumbs up!
❤️❤️❤️ this! Thanks for all of the tips Hannah!
I think I definitely have ADHD but I also have asperges too! Also I can't stop chewing the inside of my mouth help me stop, I also managed to stop biting my cheeks when I was young! So happy I found your channel from Hannah Hart I love her! ❤️❤️😭
I'm pretty comfy in the kitchen, I just got used to being in the kitchen and finding my foods that I like
Try chewing gum? Or is it that your cheeks are too big and you are bitting it on accident (I use to do that at one point some times)
If you have Aspergers, you probably don't have ADHD. Aspergers and ADHD are very similar. I know this because I thought I had ADHD, but I have Aspergers instead.
You can have aspergers and adhd together! I know tons of other people that are autistic and have both!
thankyou :D
Really, I have no clue what that would look like, since I don't have ADHD, but I have almost all of the traits, since Aspergers and ADHD are very similar.
I act, talk and think exactly the same way... Yet I can't convince my psychotherapist that I have ADHD... She just says I have low self esteem and there isn't anything more to it... I don't believe that at all.
Icup Be careful though
Your feelings are the most important thing BUT if you have convinced yourself you have a mental illness and it's false, that is a very dangerous thing to do
Talk to a specialist, because many people experience symptoms of adhd, but it's the scale and frequency that determines the diagnosis
Talk to a specialist before convincing yourself :)
I'm male and my dad has ADHD. I also went to see a psychotherapist but after she said I don't have ADHD, I just wondered where did she get her diploma the whole day... She did that old mosquito trick and after that she told me I don't have ADHD. There is way more detail but also way to many words to type... Anyway, I have decided to stop going to psychotherapy and rely on this channel and my friends. Since they helped me more then any psychotherapist could.
P.S. Listening to what you guys have to say also helps me understand things more clearly ^^
TovaShai The mosquito test went like this. We were just talking and all of a sudden she starting saying there is a mosquito on my ear. I scratched my ear even tho I didn't feel or hear the mosquito. Then I realized she was testing me or something so I said that there is no mosquito there. She kept talking and saying that there is and it's on my shoulder now, but I knew there wasn't so I just smiled and looked to the ground while infinite thoughts went through my mind... After that she said I don't have ADHD which just got me very very confused...
Icup you need to see a psychiatrist for a proper diagnoses. A therapist normally isn't qualified to diagnose issues or prescribe meds for treatment. They can help treat issues with therapy, but you need to see an actual MD and get the appropriate testing done.
Icup I don’t understand what was supposed to happen with the mosquito test!
Audiobooks help me A LOT when I do housework and cook. I would be lost without them. Also, my kitchen alarm clock.
Great video! I just had a melt down today while cooking! Mom of 2 small kids. I'm good in the process: staples list, meal planning, and shopping...but my problem is spending 3+ hours on cooking a 30 minute meal for my family!!! My goal is to create a 60 meal rotation so I don't get bored, and don't have to stress over meal planning as much....
love the content!, helps me a lot. one thing i personally loved to see (and forgive me if i didnt check the videos well enough but i dont think its in there) is how to deal with over doing things, i started a education in coding and i love it.... a bit too much. its not uncommon for me to just do my coding for 14+ hours straight (no eating no drinking no breaks) and reflecting on this objectively makes me realise its probably not very healthy:p
anyway any tips to dealing with the obsessive hyperfocus part ^^ ?
ah, hyperfocus. I've talked about it in several videos but I want to do one just focusing on how to take advantage of it -- including how to transition out of it!
How to ADHD Hi!!! I live my life in hyper-focus mode but cannot transition even whem I'm aware. HELP!!!!
oh wow, once i hyper focused for 5+ hours straight and almost passed out because i didn't eat or drink .
I can really relate to this...like realizing that I did not eat lunch at two in the morning. help!
Small help please, I'm not english and I don't know all words yet. At 5:59 Hannah calls you a "graser"? (I don't know if I'm writing that correctly). What is that? What does it mean?
+André Oliveira oh! Grazer. Meaning instead of sitting down and eating 3 meals a day I prefer to snack throughout the day.
like a cow who *grazes* on grass
This is one of my favorite episodes so far. Super helpful, I'm inspired to go make my own list right away!
this is my favorite video on your channel!! eating is so hard for me (feeding myself AND cooking!) and i used to watch Hannah's videos years before i ever knew i had ADHD. This collab is making my 14 year old self and current 22 year old self SO happy. thank you both
Legit. I skip breakfast and lunch, my family don't know. But I have to eat dinner so they don't know I skip meals. My family literally makes me lunch breakfast and dinner I can only get away with hiding two meals I have not eaten. Is this bad ?
Do you skip meals because you find it boring to have to make food, or is it for different non-ADHD related reasons? Either way it sounds like disordered eating. Eating is important in the day time so you can fuel your body and brain! They need energy!
Wait, on purpose?
L F yep..........
This sounds like a solid eating disorder. Do you have ADHD? I just take a guess that you're a girl. ADHD is found to be connected with Asperger's and Asperger's is very much connected to eating disorders
This is amazing and you should do more of this cooking with ADHD. I thnk hanna would get a kick out of doing more as well. ;P
I started a channel for it! I just have to find the time. ruclips.net/user/howtofood
How to ADHD ironically this is how I feel about cooking...
rofllll I feel your pain
Do u mean, that channel is about how to cook with adhd? Or without adhd?
Another great video Jess! They are always so entertaining :) Thank you!
Wow I love this video, a few of my formative years were spent watching Hannah Hart and it's so nice to see her again, offering some serious nuggets of wisodm!!!
- it almost feels too simple
- it's simple but u will make it hard 😂😂
why AHAD people always makes simple things hard?! 🤔
99th!!!
Ahh! I love Hannah! So excited for this episode!
It's nice to hear this put into words and it totally makes me understand how my mom and dad handle it for our house and life... thank you!
1st
bellificent23 I was 3rd like lol
Such a fantastic channel, thank you for helping spread awareness and information on ADHD. When I was a child no one knew what ADHD was, and it was TOUGH. But it’s given me the tools to help others. Keep up the great work
I know this video is older, but after watching it, I've just made the most confident order to my grocery delivery service. I'm looking forward to having a manageable kitchen I can actually use to feed myself. Thank you!
Wow she is so patient and real, bring her back for more tips, the banta between you two is great to watch
5:56 This affirmation was GAME CHANGING for me. Thank you!!!
I had no idea other people struggled with this, too. Thank you so much.
This was such a good episode!
Hannah these tips are so big brained, thank you!
This came out right in time for me to create my shopping list! Thank you so much! Now I know exactly what to buy and cook this week!
Love this video! Very similar to how I think about food and cooking! I have recently become entirely independent on meals as my school doesn't really have a cafeteria! I'm starting to learn how to meal prep and slowly expand my cooking comfort zone!
WOW! This was both a surprise and a treat. I love both you wonderful brains and was so not expecting this!
A really amazing episode too!
This one one of the most FUN videos I have ever seen! I love you, I love Hannah!
What really helped me is moving my "big dinner event" aka Complex Cooking Meal to around lunch time. In the evening, I'm tired and less able to handle tasks well, so cooking was just hell for me. And on top of that I'd procrastinate it until really late in the evening, so I'd had to cook while being very hungry. Now that I cook around one pm and eat around two pm, I have time and energy to not only cook and eat, but also clean! In the evening I eat some bread and maybe a salad, way less stressful!
I work from home so I can divide my day differently than most people. But if you have the flexibility too, know that dinner times are a social construct and you're definitely allowed to eat hot meals in the middle of the day ;)
This just changed my life! Thank you!
I do enjoy your channel so much😊
Amazing video! Loved it!
Thank you again for another amazingly helpful video. The whole separating eating from cooking is a huge help. It's also in large part because of your videos I realised I very likely have inattentive type ADHD. It's been amazing how you often come out with a video when I'm struggling with that topic. Your videos are gradually revolutionising my life. Thanks again.
Super incredibly helpful!!!! Thanks so much for this! ❤
Omg two of my favourite youtubers collaborating
AAAAHHH this is the best video that could ever show up from my «adhd meals»-search!! My drunk kitchen was one of the first youtube «shows» I started watching! I looove this combo!
I was very recent diagnosed with adult ADHD and found this channel which has been a great help!! I love this video also as I love to cook but get bored really quickly as I want things to be done quicker :-). Thank you for you videos and looking forward to seeing more 👍🏻
This is completely my experience, especially with novel recipes, which usually have too many ingredients, some of which can only be obtained from a special farm in Switzerland in January. You get the idea.
Fantastic video (so much fun!) Great tips.
Hello fresh is awesome i love it. Lots of new exciting recipes!
PLEASEEEEE make this into a series!!!!
your thoughts on cooking and such are exactly the same as mine and holy crap i think this video may have just given me the golden keys to feeding/cooking paralysis.
Switching to minimalism helped me get my dishes done after! Since I only have 1-2 of each kitchen thing it forces me to wash them soon or I wont have any clean ones soon, so I cant let dishes pile up :)
This is so helpful. Thank you
