5 Natural Alternatives to ADHD Medication (..that work)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 май 2024
- How can you cure ADHD naturally? Over the years I have figured out 5 ways to naturally and alternatively medicate adhd and have managed to almost completely quit my prescribed adhd medication. Prescribed medication such as ritalin, adderal, methylphenidate, concerta or other stimulants can have bad side-effects such as mood swings, feeling demotivated or for me: just being generally more frustrated.
The 5 ways are:
1. Exercise
2. Eating the right food (including supplements)
- Protein
- Natural Supplements:

Omega 3: amzn.to/35mcDgd
Zinc: amzn.to/3aWo2EH
Vitamin C, B16 & B12: amzn.to/2z2lZBs
3. Mindfulness Meditation
4. Getting 8+ Hours of Sleep
5. L-Theanine and Coffee

Now, if I could just remember to remember to do things
😅 this is me every day!
Never said better
I feel attacked
try keeping a notebook just don't do what I did and loose the notebook
Realest comment I’ve ever read! 🤣
1. EXERCICE
2. EAT THE RIGHT FOOD: Iron, zinc, vitamin B6, omega 3, protein, healthy food
3. MINDFULNESS Meditation
4. SLEEP enough and at the same time every day
5. GREEN TEA AND COFFEE
Thank you, I lost interest on min 2.
@@gj8822 meet too... so I put the video on speed then I went through the main points 😅
Thank you, I was losing interest fast lol
Thanks. That’s a lot of bs
Yea while on aderrall these 5 things and much more are actually possible.
I am 48 and have ADHD and was really struggling with work with anxiety verging into depression and was ready to chuck in my job. I did my own research and made a few changes without using medicine. Now my life's completely turned around and I'm not only surviving I'm thriving and even got promotion recently. This is what really helped me personally:
1) Cold showers every morning
2) Exercise- I jog and do 50 push ups each day without fail,
3) Coffee- I have a cup just before an important work meeting so my brain can perform under pressure
4) Gardening- I have a place where I can chill out and be with nature
5) Music- I play background music like soft jazz if I am really struggling to concentrate for work at a desk, or lively music if I'm feeling tired when driving
My ADHD says thank you for not making this a 25 minute video!
One Fish oil (Omega 3) and one Vitamin B complex have helped me tremendously. Now I need to get a pill box so I remember to take them daily.
It also helped me to make their home a common place I use daily so I see it and remember to take it all. Might help, might not. I just wont remember if I dont see them.
@@andi8717if not seeing the pills results in you forgetting to take them, then they aren’t working and aren’t worth taking lol… you’ve just convinced yourself they’re doing something. It’s a placebo effect
Which fish oil brand do you use?
Nordic Natural omega 3, the same bottle they put Vitamin D3, as well as Vitamin B6 which is great. AlsoI take magnesium glycinate which helps alot aswell.
I am just diagnosed with ADHD and didn’t know what it was. Thanks for uploading this important video. Please keep posting. It’s such a help for me. Again, big thanks!!
I'm glad it was able to help. Thank you for letting me know:)! My new video will ve up in the next couple of days!
I'm 52 yo and, recently, I've find out that I have ADHD, inattentive type. I've tried to learn how to tackle with it, even by udemy courses, but this channel here is pure gold! Well, I've tried mindfulness meditation and it really helps me to quiet my mind. For the majority of people, having a quiet mind isn't a issue, but I feel frequently overwhelmed by the intense flow of my thoughts and ideas. So, having a time to ease down and feel my mind free of is truly a delightful experience. On teh other hand, I have experienced that speed reading and memorization are helpful techniques, because they are contributing for me to get things done (at least, my list of read books is increasing...). As an ADD person, I feel a lack of achievement, with a list of personal projects that only grows and that I often fail to acomplish.
it will be so helpful if you can list out more, your one comment is more helpful than tons of videos I've tried watched and books I've tried to read
I recently came to the realization that i definitely have ADHD. I officially get diagnosed tomorrow. I’m 27 and my symptoms are pretty severe. One thing that has helped TREMENDOUSLY is working out however I still have pretty bad symptoms still even on days I workout. I do not want to get on medication however, I feel it would be a big help to start but I will continue to workout, and see my therapist, meditate and also cut out sugar and eventually like you, I will ween myself off of it. That’s the goal! Your videos have been really helpful. New subbie! ✨✨✨
I wish I never started medication
@@stevesheffield6758 why do you say?
Can you update on your progress?
@@Itsare30 because it’s poison
What are your symptoms?
Just to get more info on the coffee and green tea extract part, is this just mixing two stimulants or what was the part about it calming you down? I was a little worried about mixing something that calms me down with something that speeds me up.
It calms you because it helps focus yourself
Great videos! I really appreciate you take the time to do this. Thank you
👌Thank u!
I’m 54 and realize I have ADHD. My son was diagnosed in his teens (10 years ago) and my daughter just last year at age 31. My son just got a raise and bonus at work after starting adderall. My youngest has Asperger’s and has been using zipfizz which has vitamins, caffeine and green tea without realizing this is medicating undiagnosed adhd! She is going back to university next week. I’m going to introduce her to your channel. Thank you!!
I sincerely thank you for this presentation!
I walk 3 miles every morning. I MUST lose weight, but honestly, I do it because I truly enjoy it❤. Walking a nature trail every morning has most DEFINITELY helped my ADHD symptoms.

Exercise, coffee, and sleep. Haven’t been successful at meditating cause can’t quiet down. My brain is either going, going, going, or I’m asleep. 2 speeds only.
Please, try one minute breathing or meditation, you ill find lots in book, app, utube...
For one week only once aday, not more. Second week 2 minute maditation or breathing only once à day. Third week 2 minute twice à day. 4 th week 3 minute per session and you decide how many times à day.
In the Firth week you may have come up yourself with shg.
It can be always the same meditation or breathing exercice or different ones. It is totally up to you.
There is not 1 meditator the same and there is not 1 whose thoughts never wander. It is not a price competion, nor a race. The training takes time, but most importantly I guess it takes your time and some commitment to go into the unknown ( that is what you think) that is what you...think, feel, hide, bodysensations, love...etc. All new.
A way "in" is also whether yoga nidra sessions ( see youtube) or 1minute to 6+ hour sleep méditations.
It makes going to sleep easier and if using always the same method, you will get valuable rest.
I like to hear Deepak Choprah,but there are millions of others, whatever works for you is fine. Some people even tape there own voice reading a meditation and it works for them.
No obligation, just try outs.

Hi, your videos and the informative links are great. I believe in a “360” real-life plan approach to managing and living with ADD/ADHD. I think there should be more in-depth information regarding nutrition, diet plan, feeding your brain throughout the day and recommendations for brain fuel foods and supplements and what to avoid. Keep up the great work. Cheers.
I couldn't agree more. Thanks Stewart!
Hi here, my first experience with adhd treatment was LTO3 and I was lucky that it worked within the hour. Dexameftamine didn’t do the job, but the constant use of LTO has changed a lot. The rest is up to me to change to enjoy life even more then I did already :-) thanx for the tips.
What’s LTO?
LTO3 contains a few natural ingredients like L-theanine, Sementis plus other herbs and has a calming effect on at least my head. It was primarily used in Canada, but it is now being sold all over the globe. The longer I use it the more stable my head becomes. Look for lto3 and you find what you need.
I love this ! This is so true. Especially, exercise, sleep and eat healthier. I figured those out on my own.
When i have a task at work that makes me move more Im totally focused and feel great.
When the Boss gives me a task that requires me to stand in one spot , I feel like my brain is shutting down.
I can't stand still. I feel horrible when I eat too much junk food. So I try not to.
If I don't get enough sleep, I can't function at work.
I took methylphenidate for 25 years and loved the focus and ability to think and plan. Then I started falling asleep all day from my 15mg short acting doses which I took 3 or 4 times a day . I did not feel good about taking 20mg. I had to stop altogether cold turkey and slept day and night for three months, getting up to eat and do chores. Now it has been about 5 years without Ritalin. I still can’t focus. I still take naps too much. I can think for a few minutes after waking up each morning, then I’m back to brainless for the day.
I like all your recommendations. I would add that I benefit from routines, so that I can get some things done without having to think. ♥️
So your adhd is worse now?
How are you doing now?
@@aprilhassell1747 I am adrift. Unfocused. Relying on routines.
I have a lot of friends with ADHD or Add (idk why haha) and where I am from, it is not very easy to get meds nor is it looked upon well. I will definitely send them this video. Especially, with the LTO-3 thing, I know doctors who work with natural herbs that recommend it and know two people who have used it and really did see improvement. The same thing for B12 had another friend use it for concentration when they were still in school. Good Video, this advice is really used in practice!!
Thank you. Im glad I was able to shed some light!
You should probably look up things that don't help when you think you're helping with your friend with ADHD. These solutions may help some people, but it is not a substitute for conventional traetment, and its not a magic solution . meds only work 80% of the time, but if they do work then don't mess with it. its irresponsible, and someone with ADAH who may be susceptible may suffer for it. leave it to their doctor.
Thank you for this. My daughter has adhd, and we had her on medication fir a few years. She begged me to take her off. It’s been a battle to help her.
How has everything worked?
On stimulants?
Hiiii .... google.... Eric Berg.... kind regards Australia
The issue (for me) with exercise, is that without my stimulant meds, I can’t even get out of bed. And I don’t mean sleeping in often, I mean lying in bed feeling anxious about not being able to will myself out of bed, forcing myself back to sleep till I get headaches and dehydration, and nightmares. Most days I’m in bed 18 hours, some days I don’t even move except to pee and eat junk food, which I take to bed with me, creating piles of garbage.
On the meds, i can actually stay out of bed nearly a normal amount of time.
Also I take Sertaline, which has the unfortunate side effect of making me sweat SO much, even just from walking round the house once. Even in winter. Even with fans. Even naked. And I mean SWEAT. Hair soaked, clothes soaked, glasses slipping, drips in my eyes. Luckily it doesn’t smell.
Despite the sweating I still force myself to get groceries, visit family. Nothing more though. Especially socialising.
I cannot fathom the idea of going out in public for a 30 minute walk, sweating, bright red, dragging my feet and panting. It’s to embarrassing to just do for the sake of it, when there’s no actual immediate purpose. I get that in the long run it will be better, but I lack the ability to see long term goals as “real”. My brain doesn’t function without instant reward. Going out just to walk, has many more cons than pros, in the short term. And I only function in the short term. Which just can’t be fixed.
Try starting you exercise and breathing techniques (like Wim Hof) in the bed. Put on a workout video too.
That sounds excruciating! 😢 i hope you find some motivation somewhere.
I have found it in doing something for someone else. You have to stop thinking about your disability, it’s SO difficult. I Can be paralyzed for so long and waste so much time. You know, you’ve given me an idea. I hope I can focus long enough to get my idea on paper. And I hope to find you again, to let you know how reading your comment here tonight, at 3:40 am, turned out. 🤞
I do use these alternatives on a daiky basis and helps me so much highly recommend great video by the way 👍
Of course I made it this far: I am hyperfocusing on your content and will probably watch another 3 or 4 videos of yours before I come back to what I was doing in the first place.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for adding that disclaimer at the end. It would’ve been really lovely at the beginning but it really means a lot that you made that point. It got my thumbs up.
Hello, thanks for your videos. I just grabbed the l-theanine What brand of CBD drops do you recommend? Are there any gummies you recommend? I’m going to a concert this October and I’m worried about being too overwhelmed by the crowd and someone said CBD gummies might help. Thanks!
Great video! I do all those things except take Iron. Meditation is very effective, but for some reason I many times have to force myself to do it, lol
Thanks! Agreed, it takes some will-power to sit down and get into meditation..especially consecutively. Thats why I recommend making it a routine I.e. it would feel weird to not do it. I personally do mine in the morning, after I wake up and have exercised
I like drink matcha. It really boosts my focus and mood! 🍵
I feel sleepy after taking matcha
@@varunbedi9979 drink less
Same!!!!!! I feel so good after I drink matcha!
Try to lower your internet comsumption - overloading yourself make your mind weaker and more prone to distraction

I also tried ritalin/concerta for a few years on and off (post-university), quitting every time after a few months because I didn't like the irritability or robotic feeling it gave me. They both did calm me and help me process things more easily. Coffee gets me motivated but for some reason actually worsens my focus. lol
Alright I'm going to alienate myself now with a random anecdote but a couple years ago I went on a high-fat carnivore diet for 3 months. After the first week I felt a calm I had never experienced before. That calm was consistent and I was always in a good mood. Nothing seemed to stress me out anymore or that I could easily manage it. And for the rest of that time it seemed like most of my adhd symptoms were minimal. My recovery with exercise improved greatly. My retention and focus were more effortless. But after some holiday peer pressure, I stopped and have failed to consistently get back on it since. I realize that to many, this sort of thing sounds wacky or unhealthy. But I really think people who have adhd or have issues related to stress and anxiety, this might be worth a try. This diet is more commonly used with autoimmune disorders and other situations where people really can't eat other foods without major complications. I don't really associate with any dogma with this diet, if I can get the same results eating other foods I'm willing to do so. So far keto helped but not nearly to the same degree and I have no idea why! Anyway, just thought I'd share. Maybe I'll finally get the discipline to do it again lol
Thank you for sharing that! I myself found success with Low Carb diet, I feel more calm and more stable. I still use Concerta, but small dose 18-36mg. Coffee is hit or miss for me, sometimes it makes hyper and jumpy without focus, :)
Add brains need more proteins and things like avocados. We also need spinach and to keep off sugars and flour. I think our gut bacteria is also very sensitive. Red meat is your friend. As are high amounts of vegetables. And to a lesser extent a variety of fruit and nuts. And consistent exercise, cardio particularly. Three miles a day around. I know what I should do in theory but that requires a whole lot of discipline. The problem I’m trying to solve lol
I’ve heard about these benefits from the carnivore diet from many people, and certainly with adhd’ers. So many health conditions have been dramatically improved from the brain, to the body to the hormones etc.
Thanks for the info!
I have ADHD and when I went on Keto a few years back the same thing happened, but I completely stopped sleeping. So I had this intense calm that was WONDERFUL, but I completely stopped sleeping so I stopped Keto. That calm was everything and I think about it from time to time.
That was fabulous, thank you. I do the daily exercise, good nutrition, natural supplements, meditation..... l just need to sleep more and earlier!! Not an easy thing as my body clock is upside down. But l'm very glad to know l'm on the right track.
How do you spell that green tea extract thing at 6:00?
edit: found it for anyone curious. It's L-Theanine (it was in the description lol)
The music competes with what you're saying.
P.s🥰😂
Great video‼💯 great advice‼💯 as usual thank you‼💯 its very much appreciated‼💯🤯🧘♀️🥰
This video sounds so beautiful but it's super hard to move or initiate, let alone getting to sleep! But I'll look into the cbd. Thank you.
heads up about green tea… it will mess with yer iron absorption particularly for women with heavy periods❤
Not any more than coffee. Black tea is problematic.
? Do you mix the green tea & coffee?
Great information! L-Theanine + Coffee has been a life saver for me. One update though is that recent studies found that the L-Theanine only works when it's isolated from tea since tea has other components that appear to counteract any benefit. So I wouldn't use coffee + tea as an indicator of if this will help you.
Thanks for this info!
Also, it’s only been shown to be effective in doses of about 100-200 mg, and tea only has about 20 mg per serving
@@adhdvision where was the link for the L-thenanin you recommended? 🙏
i have adhd and drinking coffee always makes me very sleepy, and if I do sleep right after drinking coffee, it's hard to wake up and I always sleep through alarms.
The biggest one I would say is dieting, which you kind of touched on but glossed over what I think is most important. Artificial ANYTHING is terrible for ADHD, specifically artificial coloring (red 40, yellow 7, blue 6 etc) the stuff in Gatorade, Doritos, Cheetos, all the good stuff, will send your brain spiraling. Also foods that are very artificial and have lots of preservatives in them do the same thing. Before I was medicated for ADHD I was on a diet for years and I have to say it does make a big difference.
True!
Thank you so much great video
I have adhd but I'm not hyper? I'm motionless & I have a hard time smiling. When people express too much emotion, like a overjoyed puppy I just feel uncomfortable? I want to laugh but can't? I'm not sad, angry, or happy? I'm just existing
Have you been diagnosed? There are so many different types of adhd, add, asd, aspergers. Good luck. You will get there
@@sandycandy6396 i have been back in 3rd grade. I was also not good at speaking English & was mostly too shy to talk. I have been getting diagnosed with adhd again in middle school where I took stronger drugs & just made me feel numb. I think the meds made me like this
@@Torpito0 yes I the meds do have this effect sadly 😞 still good luck ❤️
@@Torpito0 yea the news definitely have this effect. I am currently going through the same, hopefully I find a solution to my adhd!
@@Lazymath007_ wish u luck. I hope me and u both find a solution
Are we suppose to take the green tea stuf with coffee same time or? Also your insta handle didnt work. Lol
Hello-I have a question related to #5. L-Theanine and Coffee. Curious if there is a tea anyone recommends that contains both L-Theanine and coffee? Or if the supplement below has been a generally better option?
Matcha ?
All caffeinated teas also containe L-theanine in varying amounts, particularily matcha green tea. My problem with this part of the video is he's just telling you to replace one drug with another. Just because one of them is natural doesn't mean it isn't a drug, over half of pharma is based on natural extracts, including dangerous drugs like benzodiazepines.
Curious to see if youre familiar with the Natural Stacks Dopamine supplemet... And is it a proper dose of Ltheanine?
Ginseng, maca, ginkgo, mushroom microdosing, cold showers, climbing, every hour a 2 - 3 minute break for exercise, yoga, meditation, tea (no social media etc.!)…... All other points I agree about. Specially omega 3 oil as in cold linseed oil helps.
How do you use the combination Thesnine and coffe? You take it together during the days when you need to focus on work? You take the thenine pill 💊 and drink coffee? Would be good to know. Thanks
I’ve stopped taking my Adderall and been taking Rhodiola and matcha instead
Just one remark. Don't eat less meat
The carnivore diet has actually been the most helpful for adhd
I think I’m going to have to try this. I’m in the process of getting diagnosed for adhd and I’m on keto already. It’s just difficult in social settings to eat only meat lol. But I love the fattier foods on keto and carnivore
I got very ill when trying to be a vegan , what is really great is rhodiola(natural)weird its not wellknown
pov: you do all these things as well as taking meds but still end up failing school every year
Why does taking a stimulant (caffeine) not count as 'medicated' in the way that an amphetamine or methylphenidate does? Just a philosophical thing to think about when deciding if medication is for you or not; as they're all drugs and I'd argue that caffeine can do more harm than a low dose pharmaceutical.
yeah i was thinking the same thing ...
Coffe is natural , pills aren’t . Coffe you can see it yourself or grow it , pills you can’t .
Maybe because it's considered natural and not lab made?
Please can you shed light on recommending Green tea and coffee as both have opposite effects. Common sense says having coffee in the morning and green tea in the evening..
Or do you recommend to mix them both? A bit unsual/ not sure tbh
how do i find out what works for me? how do i start?
How long do I others exercise to have enough dopamine for the day? And what do u do?
30min-1hr of physical activity a day is beneficial. Start off at smaller times, just work on getting into a consistent schedule then increase the time spent working out. A variety of cardio along with targeting areas(such as legs, upper body, core or a full bodyworkout which does a bit of everything) RUclips vids are a good place to start/follow. Good luck
Epic! Thank you!!!!!
,,Eat less meat, have more greens" basically means eat more carb less protein, i found a i have way more energy eating mostly meat and less veggies, but its not sustainable....deffinetely cut on processed meats
I don't have ADHD but my husband struggles with it, medication dosent seem to help him, what could I do to try and help him? He does not like to go to the doctor because the says the doctor wont listen to him or change things up for him. He misplaces things all the time, has a lot of anxiety and irritability, he forgets a lot, I dont't know if these are symptoms of the ADHD or his Conserta. What could I do to help him? it can put a lot of stress on our relationship at times
I would continue to educate yourself on adhd, which will help you help him. Maybe try to find a naturopath type doctor in your area, that specializes in adhd treatment. Also, omega 3 and especially high epa are incredibly beneficial to adhd’ers. You want a good 1000 mg of epa, so look for omega 3 with lots of epa.
I've experienced those symptoms and I'm not taking any medication for ADHD, even though I was diagnosed with it. Instead I'm taking Ashwagandha for my anxiety and mood support. It has helped me some.
I would also look into brain supplements, specifically for memory, focus and concentration. I'm actually on the lookout for this. On top of that, I've heard from others with ADHD recommending exercise, meditation and behavioral therapy. Sorry I can't give you more information. I'm still learning how to cope with ADHD myself.
Always try and treat him like a husband - I’ve been treated like a child in numerous relationships and there’s nothing quicker to dilute any trust
I’m 39. Diagnosed only this year. Hated methylphenidate. Now on vivanse. It’s good but emotionally I find it brings out some negatives in me.
I’m thinking of using the meds only when I have a busy day and not habitually. Plus the exercise and good food. Hope it works for me. great vid. Thx
How’s it going? Did negative side effects go away? Currently deciding which one to trial, might go with vyvanse first
Noowave coffee has L-Theanine in it and it has half the caffeine of normal coffee! It's pretty dope been using it for like a month
Idk where you got those long term symptoms from but I have NEVER heard of that being a long term problem for anyone taking stimulants.
Green tea and coffee mixed together? Or taken separately?
I take coffee in the mornings and green tea during the day
These 5 methods are legit guys, I am 4 days into trying them and I am already able to stay off of my meds and get lots of work done. I think that the ones that work the best for me are the coffee + green tea, but also the mindful meditation.
Good to hear they are helping :)

I believe the exercise aspect of this, but Light exercise is easier for me rather than extremes. I agree with him completely about all of these remedies.
It's mostly missinformation due to its unaccuracy. Diet is all over the place, but he does name some of the correct nutrients people should be getting and they don't. Coffee is pretty much replacing one drug with another. And meditation is generic advice that never helps, though there are some meditation practices that do help, and mindfulness isn't one. The only accurate part is when he talks about moderate intensity cardio.
DHA has made the biggest difference for me. That works just as well as when I took meds. I would defo say to not buy the cheap ones. Be safe and spend money on Brands like Standard Process or Nordic Naturals. I go to a natural doctor for testing and dosing.
🙏🙌
Thank you for your help🙏🙏
L-Theanine + Coffee has worked better than medication in my opinion. BEST PART, NO WITHDRAWALS AND HARSH SIDE EFFECTS.
NICE!🙏
Agreed, quite a good combo :)
Yeah I wish I would've gone natural from the start. I tried 4 meds and got terrible side effects from all four. I like how the doctors look at you crazy when you say that DHA works just as well as the drugs.
@@dctrbrass I tried the meds and i didnt even last 2 months. I refused to live my life with those side effects.
Can i ask what mg you started out with??
After taking meds, I am suffering with cold feet and hands and my whole body is ice cold. I take vitamib B12, omega 3 , vitamin c, vitamin D and iron.. none of those helped me.
@Moo hey~ i'm not taking anything you metioned. I am now on other meds and the only side effect i have is sweating which is the best side effext ever haha the problem is, 50mg of vyvanse ain't doing anything :/ , gonna tell the doc and we'll see.
Thank u
You're welcome!
Also also - A solid council of people to see and talk with in Ernest on a weekly basis is so beneficial (This for me is a mens group gathering Here in Bellingen NSW called MIST)
If a person can do that all without missing, that person has no adhd.
Matcha works?
been trying this for 2 months, as much as I can and as best as I can, and it still seems to not be the end all cure all for me. My mom doesn't want me on medication tho bc she thinks it's the devil (metaphorically of course) for whatever reason, so I'm rlly just stuck in a dead end :/

@@dogsitterlife5023 i've been looking into that! The only problem i find is i already do some p hardcore dancing, and im also trying to gain weight, so i'll have to adjust to the amount of calories i might lose n start eating more lol
do tell how it works for you tho! I've heard some pretty good things abt it :)
Has anyone tried atomoxetine? I just started it 2 weeks ago and it sucks lol. I know that one takes time but I don't feel the medication like I did with addy and methylphenidate. Addy made me feel zoned out like a "zombie". Methylphenidate gave me bruises and high anxiety.
Took it for two days and experienced almost every side effect listed. Never again.
I've just stopped taking that due to horrible side effects (racing heart, palpitations and major anxiety among other things). I was told it's ok to just stop, but I've actually had horrible withdrawal for the past two weeks. It did make my mind quieter but it was much more subtle than stimulant meds like methylphenidate. I haven't been able to tolerate any of the meds so I'm trying to cope without now.
I will try all
If i can try
I don't know if you noticed but I take my meds to do all of that😅
What about motivation? I struggle really bad with that. I've done so many things, so I'm a Jane of all trades... I tried working out but I get bored of every single thing I try after 3 months or so... that's why I'm depressed also... a tip for that?
Looks a bit similar to me, I would search for measures to increase Dopamin in your System, no sweets and processed carbs/foods - cold showers - avoid social media, make something productive - and so on. Look also to reactivate your Dopaminreceptors. L- Tyrosine, B6, B13, Mg I would supplement. Uridin and or NAC to restore your receptors should also work. Good luck.
Amino acids, tyrosine in morning, tryptophan in evening work so much better for me than stimulants
I took adhd medicine for 9 years because I do have bad adhd the pills were literally killing me and I had bad side effects now im gonna drink coffee and exercise instead
THANKS!
Is this video to market point number 4?
Black tea is the best for me!
I wish I could eat healthy but my meds make me sick to my stomach every time I eat which is why I am so skinny. I don't eat lunch or breakfast from Mondays to Fridays, only on the weekends when I'm off my meds. thanks anyway ill see what I can do to change!!!
take care bro
The meds are addictive,I was on meds for 3 years and made me a different person..most of you're issues are actually side effects from not taking it ..they work ..but I didn't like who I was when I DIDN'T take them look up some of the long term effects off some of those pills ..I've been off of mine for a week and some of the withdraws are pretty intense
High-Intensity Training (HIT) is the most effective method. Alternatively, incorporating just three sets of kettlebell swings into your morning routine is extremely beneficial.
is he saying to combine the green tea and coffee into one drink?
they upped the price of my medication so im looking for ways to get off them for my budget.
Can you make a version with subway surfers content playing underneath? My adhd brain is about to detonate.
Tried saffron, lions mane,L tyrosine, omegas .. no difference
Video about ADHD people unnecessarily prolonged to annoy those with ADHD
I know that exercise works wonders, when I could I used to go to the gym, walk for miles and if I could, I would again, so PLEASE just tell me how to get out of bed!
Thank you!
Thanks Mate :) From down under here in Australia I concur - Magnesium, sleep, A healthy balanced diet (more ruminant animal meat works super well for me) & of course trying to be a creator as well as a consumer is also pretty Definitely Potent! 🙏⚡🥳
But what if caffeine makes you irratable?
for be healthy its the same for everybody! always the same, discipline! routine about exercise, food, sleep, mediation or art of nothing like walk in forest and don t think or just let thinking be! its the same for everyone every ages! the pnly thing its to find those who match with us!

All of those things except the caffeine when teamed with the right drug at the right dose work wonders .
With out my meds I drink 2 pots of coffee over the course of a day to my self just to function at an exceptable level.
I don't sleep , never have ( meaning 3-5 hours a night is my norm) and that's with and with out meds .
I'm not a robot on them , and I get pissy and break shit when I'm not on them .
I get the feeling that a lot of people have had the wrong dose / drug and or doctors 😕
I don't know man. Not a single doc I've seen agrees with stimulant medication. Maybe theres something deeper there?
@@calamitousjinn1348
And every doc I've seen says the non stimulant meds are used mainly for those with addiction issues and that they try not to use them if they don't need to because of their side effects .
There is also an amazing amount of doctors that don't think its real and won't believe the research and brain scans that show that it's definitely real .
@@zacharymccullough4625 well my dr. suggested I take large doses of caffeine as a stimulant but isnt coffee addicting as well? If it WAS an addiction issue it's kind of illogical I think idk
@@calamitousjinn1348
Caffeine ... I think varies wildly from person to person in its addictiveness .
When I went back on my meds and discovered I had developed a sensitivity to it I dropped it from my diet instantly I went from pots of coffee and energy drink a day to nothing , and I didn't notice any adverse affects / withdrawals
two cups of black coffee before sleep heyyoooo
Coffee.is the enemy of adhd
If u are hyperactive u drink.coffee.u will never be able to sleep at night
@@Pajtim2023 I drink energy drinks to help me sleep 😂
Nice info
Oh. I'm THIS close to going on med's, to function "normally" and find motivation to just do the boring (but necessary!) things. I'm trying to run my own business, but just noting the sales for the day is such a chore ... I have yet to do it. And I'm in the 2nd year.
i'm on meds 3 weeks now its changed me amazing i must say vyvanse 40 mg i feel so in tune with everything.
Thank you so much for your story!!! I'm trying keto until I get to a doctor. Making an appointment is just such a drudgery!@@21necronlord
Doesn’t matter if put my phone away and lay in dark I will still not sleep early. I’d just be there twisting and turning for hours
