All you're going to witness here is 15 minutes of great comedy.

A lot of people don't believe ADHD is real until they marry someone with ADHD. The "trail of broken dreams" is dead on. Everything gets started, nothing gets finished.

As a woman with ADHD, a rock collection, a spiritual connection to squirrels, and enough art and craft supplies to start my own store, I laughed so hard I thought I was going to trigger an asthma attack. All I can say is thank God I'm not married, and especially not married to a stand up comedian, lol.

As a "emo kid" with a adhd sister, I appreciate the representation of our relationship

My husband sent this to me.

Two days ago. I just found the link. I got distracted before I opened it.

As someone with ADHD...yup, this is pretty accurate. Right after I started ADHD medication at the age of 33 it was an epiphany when mid-washing dishes, I saw something else in the kitchen needing to be done, (with sponge in hand) was able to pause before moving to that other task, and tell myself, "I'll get to that after I finish the dishes." 🤯

As someone with adhd the highest compliment i can give this comedian is that i have watched an entire 15 minute video not once but twice

[MakeWayForCat]

"It's just a trail of broken dreams and then she's stuck in a corner somewhere." I cried laughing at how accurate that is.

I was trying to explain to my wife, who is new to standup comedy, that it's okay to make fun of yourself. So, I have ADHD. Thats how I found Drew Lynch. She laughed so hard she apologized. Thank you, dude. You have 2 new fans!

My wife and I both have ADHD so our house is either immaculate and well put together or looks like a war zone and there’s no in between 😂

[AuroraIceFlame]

“It looks like etsy took a shit in our house”

That’s how you know this is a true story I honestly can’t think of a shorter sentence that sums up ADHD hyperfixation perfectly

[kurikong]

My parents literally gave me a room for all my unfinished projects. Looking back i realized what an awesome parents they were for putting up with a crazy child like me. I did painting, drawing, paper mache, knitting, sewing clothes, painting on shoes, on bags, on shirts, I played piano, violin, guitar, recorder, and ukulele, I sing, dance, do taekwondo, play video games, and collects hardbound books, hero figurines, hot wheels, and barbies. It was like I had a different dream every week and my parents supported me for it, they saw it as a sign of a brilliant kid, a jack of all trades. If i were my parents I wouldn't have the patience to deal with a kid like me

I love that she danced to your stutter. Somehow that feels like the best kind of love ❤️

[Weeds_and_Wishes]

As a woman who has had adhd all of my life- I felt so seen, validated and personally attacked all at once.😂

[gaiamorgosi]

This guy just represented ADHD, proved that unconditional love is real, threw dirt at people who capitalise on other people’s problems and actually made us laugh. HERO.

[shannonsantoro]

As an ADHD wife all I can say is...this is scary accurate. I showed this to my husband and he accused me of being married to Drew. Hahaha!

[s.leeyork]

when I was diagnosed I was 37, the Dr. told me that I was/am ADD -- because without being hyper-active, that's what it was called back in the 1990s.

My mom and my best friend both have ADHD, and "I was going to do a load of laundry" made perfect, immediate sense to me.

I kept wanting to see what his wife was going to do next. I felt a connection to her. It made me feel empathy because she cares so deeply. I know some may not get this. She cares about everything all at once, so its hard to get anything done. I love the part about how she rescued the squirrel!

[richarddube]

I have ADHD, and I could relate to so much of this, even the rock collecting, but when he said that his wife started dancing when he stuttered on the word stressed, I busted out laughing until tears were pouring out of my eyes.
