Today I picked up my son from school, in tears telling me he just wished he was "normal". I played him this song and I think it really helped. We r gonna get your book very soon. THANK YOU!❤

About a year ago I started to realize I might have adhd. I sobbed finally realizing why I’ve struggled my whole life. I didn’t tell anyone because I was just self diagnosing and didn’t want the judgement. Plus, I was just processing the thought myself. I wanted to tell my boy friend so bad, but wasn’t sure he would understand, so I didn’t. A few months later, I was working one night, and he sent me a YouTube video and said, “I think you might have this.” It was your little mermaid video about ADHD. I was dumbfounded! That video allowed us to connect on something I didn’t know how to tell him. It has been a really big blessing for our relationship. ❤

"do you space out on a book after page number 3?" - bold of you to assume i can even get to page no 3

I just showed this to my 7 year old who is currently struggling immensely with ADHD. I cannot tell you the grin he had on his face when this song was over. He felt so proud of himself because he had a cool unique brain. Thanks for this song! I think this got through to him more than anything we've tried so far.

I heard this song and realized I am a 60 year old man living with this. I think the treatment they gave kids in the 60s-70s was called a belt.

My husband solved a 600 step wooden puzzle in 7 minutes. He put it back in a little over 3 minutes and then took it back apart in 3 minutes and 6 seconds. Also, he puts things in really random places so he “ will know where to find them “ and then has no idea where he put them. He absolutely makes people he cares about laugh as a way to make us feel better. I have said for years that Penn reminds me of him. Great hair and all.
Oh, and he got bad grades so they tested him… he skipped 3 grades after that. He’s brilliant and I love the way his mind works.

I actually have ADHD. I definitely feel frustrated with it most of the time. I appreciate the line, "there nothing wrong with you." Penn is great about making us feel better and laugh at it too!

I love how there’s no slow buildup or intro, he goes right into it. Helps the ADHD.

I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was seven. I am now 34. This is really the first place where I’ve felt like ADHD is a superpower not a “disorder”. For so long ADHD has had stigma associated with it. Thanks for writing these songs. It’s helping seven year old me heal, I guess.

[IsabelJones]

I love the ADHD songs. You should make a playlist of them.

[ObiMomKenobi]

They need to call it something different. It isn't a disorder. It's an ability. Society is the disorder.

I just got diagnoised with ADHD officially 2 week ago... I am a 33 year old female that internatilized my hyperactivity and my special interest was school... so it got hidden very well, until now, and all my really good friends also have ADHD which is why we get along so well!

I just watched this with my 11 year old son who has ADHD. As Penn was asking the different questions throughout the song, my son kept answering "Yes!" 😂 We both loved it and are looking forward to reading the book together 🙏 Thanks Penn for bringing hope, levity and joy in sharing your experience. We need more of that in the world!

I have two sons with ADHD, 12 and 8, and the 8yo is seriously struggling as we try to find him the right medication and other resources. It’s been heartbreaking to see my sweet, loving boy feel different, misunderstood, frustrated and depressed. This gave me a little boost of hope. Thanks so much, Penn—it’s obvious that that last message came straight from your heart, and it means a lot. ❤

My son Has ADHD, and always struggled in school, and barely passed. Didn't want or desired to go to college at all.
He is very hands on type of a person and can fix anything! He did this when he was younger, and would fix stuff around the house and in neighbors houses! This led him into a career into maintenance and he makes as much as my daughter does who went to college and as a degree.
I am so proud of both of my kids and especially proud of my son. He has found himself through this!

Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.

Our oldest son and daughter have ADHD and there's a chance our youngest son may have it as well. Oldest son really struggled in school. Lots of acting out and physical reactions to things. Finally found a school and doctor with the resources to help him. He never cared about school. But he graduated high school, earned his 2nd degree black belt in taekwondo and was 1 of 200 kids out of the whole state picked to play in a marching band, throughout Europe. Our daughter is completely different. She loves school, wants to do well and does well is school, so people often don't see the ADHD. Anxiety is her real struggle.

I have relatives who probably have undiagnosed ADHD (super high energy and a lot of random tangents), but they naturally gravitated towards professions that require the ability to task-switch rapidly (for instance, coaching athletes or managing multiple properties), so it didn't really need to be diagnosed because their jobs NEED that energy.

I’m 28, I just got my diagnoses earlier this week. A lot of things I didn’t realize about myself are suddenly clicking into place. The hardest part so far has been realizing that I’m in completely the wrong type of work for how my brain is wired. My job requires attention to small details which I’m not good at. But on the other hand I’m beastly good at improv comedy. I like creative pursuits. But I earn my living as an accountant. My boss yells at me everyday because I keep messing up on the small details and I’m not fast enough to respond to his e-mails. This song made me feel better about the news. Thank you.

I'm gonna be 60 this year and found out about 30 years ago that I have Adhd. I think one of the best things I learned to deal with this is to be kind to myself and when I have one of those goofy moments, I laugh to myself and say adhd Strikes again! and go on with my day knowing that i'm okay. I've done amazing things in my life. Like learn nine languages and have a successful career, so don't let adhd stop you! This video is amazing. And I'm gonna send it on to my kids who all have ADHD too!
