I wish for nothing else than to be able to make the switch from short term survival to long term living.

You’re so right. Problem is, when you suffer from depression too, there’s ZERO motivation to do any of this 😢

[EcleticSunnyBunny]

As an AuADHDer, this as important as knowing that half the time I also need to de-stimulate/regulate myself with quiet. The trick is tuning into the needs as they arise and try to create space for all the parts of me

I have 3 children with ADHD, MY OLDEST SON WAS DIAGNOSED AT 25, ITS HEARTBREAKING TO KNOW THE SILENT SUFFERING THEY FEEL . THANK YOU FOR HIGHLIGHTING AWARENESS.❤

If someone had taught me this as a young person, it might have saved me from years of drug addiction and abusive relationships. As I approach old age, I find myself listening to audiobooks and podcasts every moment as I do everything to keep the brain chatter in the background. ❤ I hope these videos are helping people negotiate life with an ADHD brain.

It took me a lifetime to learn this lesson. I knew from an early age that I was a thrill seeker but didn’t realize the trouble that could cause until the crap hit the fan

[MegaMayday]

It's really cool to see that I actually don't have ADHD and if I'm pretty honest I can't relate. That's important that you put yourself out there for other people to understand what ADHD really means

[melissasue]

This one feels incredibly important like it should be lesson number 1. Now I need to hunt down all the lessons. I am loving your content bc it's validating and helpful.

Thank You kindly🕊

This is the best ADHD video I've ever seen. I've suspected for a year or so that i have it. This confirms it. It's been the reason for everything "wrong" with me.

This is life saving … I struggled my whole life trying to shift my downward spiral negative thoughts when they start… now this is a key to turn the direction upward! To find a problem (of growth) to solve so can stimulate this brain.

This you’ve shared is such a gift. Wish many adhders can learn this early… (meanwhile, late here at 46, but grateful that it’s better than never!)

It's called the "Novelty Gene". Anything new will satisfy it. Learn a new language, check out every new restaurant, bar, museum, park, thrift store, business. Talk to everyone that you meet. Read every book you pick up. You'll never be bored again and you'll keep yourself out of trouble. (I know this for a fact) 😊

You have the most discipline for a person with ADHD.. usually following the drive is what drives us. I had many lists that I would check off, and I did amazing with my dream lists until I hit 38... Something about that time in my life made me go off my lists.. I wanted spontaneous satisfaction so badly. That's where things went astray. Now I'm 43 and still getting back on track from a 2 year detour into the unknown. But those times sure were wild!

After watching your channel i know i had Adhd, i was constantly pursuing flashy and glorious things that didn't serve me

[KnifeTail]

Now this is true, I’ve had friends with it and they suffer from this

[amyslifebynature]

Love love this😍! I just stumbled across this on YouTube and so glad I did. I can completely relate. Having just self diagnosed myself at 50. I’ve often referred to myself as a little ADD, but I didn’t realize to what degree I struggle with it and am learning to see it as a blessing rather than a curse if you learn how to manage it properly. So thank you for creating these clips and sharing your life lessons!! ❤️😍🥰😉👍❤️!!

When I get this way, I always go to crafting. This way it's constructive. I don't like drama so I steer clear of that and I like an easier life so I've learned to do constructive things, reading, crafting, watching YouTube while crafting 😂

[StrikerSigmaX]

Mine is fixing things. Especially smaller things that take alot of focus.

[CarolCarolDoddDodd]

I have the exact opposite problem. I am never bored. I am so busy all day long on projects that I love that my body and the clock run out way before my list of things to do. Stay busy. Find a passion and go knock it out every day! And if you are not retired yet and still working, treat your job like a video game and do it as fast and quick and as good as you can and challenge yourself every day to beat your own best!

i tend to stimulate myself by learning and researching a wide variety of topics that i encounter in my life for example
my aunt gave me a golden necklace -> i was interested in its value since she said that it's diamond+gold -> i started researching different shops/companies in this sphere -> tried identifying the value myself -> found out about special labels on jewelry -> started researching them
and now i can identify in what year and by what company was the jewelry made and where it was certified and also the percentage of gold/silver in it! and my whole life consists of those small researchers that leave me with the most random set of skills ever
i enjoy finding some sphere im uneducated in and feeling how i grow while learning about it. gives me the sweet dopamine
