Very well done again Dr. Kruse. Bravo! One can see agitation and irritability in anxiety, depression, and ADHD in addition to to bipolar. I'm grateful for your trying to differentiate these conditions. best.
When I first contacted a psychologist for an assessment I was looking at a possible diagnosis for ASD. I was surprised when they said ADHD. However getting an ADHD diagnosis from a psychiatrist seems to be difficult due to the medications being addictive and commonly abused. The one I spoke with at Kaiser flat out said they won't diagnose ADHD. Instead it led to a diagnosis for some of the symptoms, depression and anxiety... both seemingly related to living with ADHD.
Hi, love this in depth examination of differential diagnoses. I am a psychiatrist that also specialises in adhd and autism, it's refreshing to hear such a nuanced view on this topic. A small point on which we might differ. I believe (and have often clinically seen) that people with autism can also have interests that have deep meaning or are linked to understanding what's behind their narrow interests. I'd actually go as far as to say that passionate interests in some people with adhd have, in my experience, been more associated with superficiality than in people with autism. Perhaps due to it being more flighty/linked to these interests being temporary and induced under specific circumstances. I'd like to hear your thoughts on this? Warm greetings from a colleague from Belgium
Thank you for this video! as someone suffering a combination of dysthemia combined with reoccuring major depression alongside with ADHD and aspergers its kinda hard to get any sort of understanding for why im just not functional and why im just not doing things others feel are trivial, even if im healthy in body. im still youngish but when I had my frist double deprssion at 18 my life seemed to get derailed more and more, leading to me being unemployed for a few months now after two unsuccesful jobs and a luckily completed apprenticeship in a special institution. Im now actively seeking treatment for both my depressions and adhd so that I may get in a state where day to day life isnt excessively draining.
This is one of the most comprehensive videos I've ever seen about ADHD!! It's worth watching it many times! And thank you for all the references in the description too.
I got banned from the ADHD forum on Reddit because a bunch of people were trying to conflate Bpd of all things with ADHD. Absolutely dangerous comparison. !! Upset because I really enjoyed that forum.
"Mood swing" &c. are terms of art, on the one hand, and appropriate use thereof enhances the quality of the discourse. I think folk conception of terms also facilitates communication. "Technically it's emotional lability or volatility" is fine there. However, it's definitely true I wish I'd been told "when you're very upset, try to relax, and see how you feel in an hour" decades ago. I worried about "mood swings" and knew about bipolar, and definitely could've benefited from knowing that wasn't even in the realm of what I was dealing with.
In the Bible, The person with ADHD would be broadly defined as a fool. Although this is not a category one would want to be labeled with, there was more hope for fools than those wise in their own conceit, which can include those with ADHD, and those without it.

Hey doctor, can you share your thoughts on combining medications? (Apologies if you already have, I couldn't find it)
Why is psychiatry so focused on controlling or treating symptoms of disorders and not cures? Is it because enough is not known?
Im insterested and curious how you put yourself in a medical trial/study
