I'm constantly spacing out and can't concentrate. I remember when I was in high school I had a very difficult time concentrating. I would read a whole chapter in my school books and get to the end and have no idea what I just read. My grades were horrible. I think my cumulative gpa was like a 1.7 and my parents yelled at me all the time about that. I tried telling them that I had trouble reading and concentrating but just made them more mad. They told me to stfu, stop making excuses and that I could get straight A's if I tried harder. That's like fat albert competing in the Boston marathon and when he finishes dead last you tell him that he just needs to try harder
That you had let people get what they need out of your purse (another video) tells me that you are a giving person. To me, you seek to give people what they need and don't begrudge them that. I, on the other had, have had parents who think of everything as theirs and "off-limits". Everything that was mine was available for them to use, but they were not giving to me of what I clearly needed. They helped me with NOTHING. You are a role-model to me of what a person or mother looks like who is actually "giving". I need to see that a lot of things were never given to me, but instead denied. And a lot of things given are responsiveness-in-action, because seeing WHEN you actually need it is so caring. I guess this is what caring is. I am stretching hard to understand what caring for me is, and you help me fill in a lot on what that would LOOK like! Thanks Doc Snipes.
This was so helpful! Thank you doctor! My working memory ruins my life and makes EVERYTHING so hard and take so long!! Even on medication, I find myself forgetting what I'm doing while I'm doing it, so having clear, actionable steps is SO important and I appreciate you putting out information I can actually use. 🙏
@@DocSnipes I think the most helpful tip for me was that you give clear objectives to measure progress, like aiming to only lose 1 thing per week or only getting distracted 2 times a day. This gives me the structure I need to actually track how I'm doing so I can course correct. Usually, if my symptoms are high I don't notice it until either I meltdown from the stress or I am through the worst of it, so having a "check in" with myself on whether or not I met my goal for the day would help alot. Also, explaining how to prepare the space you are going to work in *before* getting to work was incredibly validating and useful. My spouse and kids also have ADHD, but they don't understand or respect my need to have certain things in certain places, not only so I have what I need but so that I don't end up derailing my productivity for hours in the "search for things and get distracted" loop. It was nice to hear that my strategy of prepping my workspaces ahead of time isn't too much or something I should be ashamed of, but just me taking responsibility for my own actions :) I'm just really happy to hear a professional teaching who actually understands how ADHD impacts our lives! Unfortunately, most doctors and professionals I have encountered try to force us to be neurotypical, and give tips like "use a planner and set your alarm" that don't work with our brains in practice and leave us feeling worse. You seem to get how ADHD works in real life situations, so all of your tips make practical sense! 😂 Like the "movement alarm" versus a quiet or stationary alarm; if we are hyper-focused we will absolutely mute an alarm in our pocket or on our desk, so this one small change can make a big difference in the tip actually working!
I grew up with a military father that pushed if you show up on time your late, I also work at a job that if you don’t show up on time, I mean not even a minute late, you don’t work. I have alarms on my phone that say start getting ready for work, time to leave for work, must be on the road. I started watching these videos cause my daughters and most of my grandchildren have adhd, but now I see my behaviors in these videos and things you’re describing, I’ve taught myself or discovered over the years to help me get things done. I like things in there place and I hate change.

That’s why I’m better at hands on learning, reading gives me a headache and anxiety. I love RUclips for this reason.
