My 3 yr old Daughter: "Daddy, I couldn't listen today because my heart wanted to play and be crazy, but my brain was like, "no we need to listen!"
Talking with her later that night I told her I had the same problems and we just have to talk and work on things a little bit each day.
Her reaction was to immediately start crying, since she thought it was just her being "bad"

I wasn't diagnosed till I was an adult because if this, despite struggling all my life. Thank you for sharing. 💜

[VeronicaLebednik]

My daughter shared your channel with me and your content changed my life. My entire life I’ve been living with ADHD and I thought I was just failing at life. Thank God for your content and showing up! Please keep it up 🤗

[poloboy]

Even the shorts are of ultimate quality. I truly respect your work ethic

I was diagnosed at 27, as a teacher I saw myself in every one of my students who had the diagnosis and it clicked it blew my mind how long it’d been missed.

[OKbeingdifferent]

Def my experience. Wasn't diagnosed until aged 38. Always been diagnosed as depressed. It was the lockdown that made me search for more answers

[Cheermione]

This is my whole experience. My psychologist told me i had despression but definitely didn’t have ADHD. Did a test online anyway, got a referral from my Doctor and went to get tested. Guess what? I *did* actually have ADHD. I’m well over 30 now and i wish i had known sooner, but at least i know now.

Thank you!! I wasn't diagnosed until 32. When I told my mom she said, "Your aunt (a special ed teacher) told us to have you tested but we ignored her because you always had straight As." Sure, I had straight As because I had small classes with great teachers and I loved school. It wasn't until I couldn't hold down a job or keep my house liveable much later in life that I got the diagnosis.

I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety when I was a teenager and was finally diagnosed with ADHD in my early 30's. Getting medication for it has been an extreme pain, though. Only recently was I put back on meds after a several year hiatus and the stress of trying to get through life with my ADHD and others not understanding and giving me a difficult time has left me with severe anxiety and now severe panic attacks.

It really annoys me that a lot of this might have been avoided had I been properly diagnosed in the first place. I told my doctors I wasn't depressed but they insisted I was but didn't know it.

Single mom 2 kids, and struggling with suspected Inattentive ADHD. I wish there was more help out here for this cause then I wouldn't feel so hopeless in my city, Im shocked there isnt more funding for this so i could get help quicker. Your channel gives me hope, keep it up!

[HaShomeret]

"if you are a woman and you don't have ADHD... Actually you might" ROTFL so true. Diagnosed at 32

i got diagnosed with adhd just last week at 19, when the pressures of college began to make me fall behind in everything and i was looking for any solution to fix why i kept missing deadlines and why i couldn’t keep up. i came across your channel and i am so grateful that i did. before i had no idea what adhd actually was besides the stereotypical hyperactive male that’s always portrayed in media. i really wish adhd in women was more spoken about, because it hurts that ive been struggling my entire life and working so hard just to meet the bare minimum, and i was the only one who noticed it 18 years later.

had depressions throughout my childhood and finally self diagnosed trough the knowledge of friends. When I went to study it became obvious I was having the same issues that triggered my previous depressions and finally got diagnosed officially at 31.

Dated a guy with ADHD for 7 years. Married him. Love him. I was diagnosed with ADHD a few months ago. Never even considered it for a second because "I wasn't having the same functionality struggles that he was". I'll be damned if we don't have the most ADHD friendly-house though.

[berthas.ausg.]

I was diagnosed at the tender age of 48. Still struggling with the self hatred, anxiety, and self esteem issues that had decades to manifest.

[Maevelikeschampagne]

So true I was horrendously misdiagnosed for 18 yrs - My entire adult life up to that point. I was basically a guinea pig for psychoactive meds.

Thank you for your content. You are spot on. I have lived 95% of the symptoms you mention in your vids
❤️✨

[silvaroo]

I wish I had known about this sooner! For 17 years of my life, I had gone though a lot. Lost keys, info-dumping, hyperfixations, etc. I just never considered the fact that I might have ADHD (inattentive). Thank you so much for this channel, I plan to get my ADHD diagnosis soon!

[amandaberkey]

Thank you so much for helping me self-diagnose and get help! My whole life I thought I was just a failure. You gave me so many answers and so many ways to work with my brain and not against it! I really can't thank you enough!!

[sam-is-sleeping]

me: looks at the mess that is my room…
the lack of planning that i have..
the lack of cooking skills..
the 3 full laundry baskets in my room…

sees the video: 😳

[jadel]

I can only watch about 1-2 videos from this channel at a time because everything is just so relatable it hurts. I would joke about being adhd but didnt think i actually had it, but 95% sure i do you for the help and info ♥♥
