I wish she’d find a better word than “careless.” Of course we care. But if we lose focus, we’re often unaware of it. I’ve had moments at work when I’m trying really hard to do everything right, but still miss details. Other times, I’m totally focused and detail-oriented. It’s weird.
I can still become careless when i don't feel like it's any use of me trying (i have adhd), or when i do something you have to be careful about and i loose my patience and follow an impulse. However i feel what you say and i can still care while looking like i'm careless. I think you have to accept that some parts of ADHD is just bad in certain scenarios instead of trying to talk around everything.
@Historian212 I agree with you. Those of us w ADHD may have so many competing thoughts and cares in our heads that we may forget to do something in the moment, even though we definitely care about doing that thing correctly. Words like “careless” can feel biting and dismissive to someone who is trying their best, often caring and trying even harder than most people, even if it may not look that way on the outside.
Tends to come in waves, sometimes I find I'll have moments I can't focus, other times it might be a week, or a month! I'm not on medication, but I find I'm more effected when I am emotionally compromised!
Yes me too. Those are surges and dopamine and serotonin, they fluctuate too much for us suffers of adhd. I don't care what anyone says ADHD is completely real and it's almost obvious to tell when somebody truly has it, and the medication obviously calms us down more than amps us up it's hard to fake that❤❤
I consider it emotional abuse! I’ve been on ADHD medications for over 28 years but now I’m unable to find a competent non gaslighting psychiatrist that knows the gargantuan difference between bipolar disorder and high spectrum autism! I survived bipolar meds that almost killed me… I was correctly diagnosed at age 67. The first time I watched the TV show The Good Doctor I just cried… the shoe fit. ❤Hypnotherapy literally saved my life❤
the "nonstimulant" is just some tricky word play for a DNRI that while not directly stimulating is just a little slip around because of the stigma people have towards stimulants
That’s a big issue for us ADHD folks. So many “experts” work for drug companies, especially the psychiatrists. They claim that medication is a “must”- yet, a large percentage of us don’t tolerate meds well; I know someone who struggled to get the right med for him, and then it just stopped working. I think his brain adapted to it. He just gave up after that. Drugging us is not the answer, in many cases. They need to do better.
It's ruined my life causeing my other issues to be worse. I'm frustrated, untreated and losing my grip here on earth. I can't have a relationship. At this point I don't want one. It makes it hard to be my boss because you have to repeat yoursef 20 times or physically show me what you want done. Uuuug! It's ridiculous. That's just the beginning! I get so stuck inside myself that it triggers OCD, BPD, PTSD MDD, ANXIETY, you name it! May GOD help me.
I have to say, it is so good to have time stamps for people with ADHD. The agony about getting to the part that is in the title itself. You could also add, NOT AVAILABLE in Canada.
65 years old and just diagnosed. I have known since my 30's but never followed up on it. I am now trying to get the dosage right. I'm taking Vyvanse. Memory was the reason I finally followed up on it.
@@jackiesicilian5720 I'm doing well. Doctor dosage is Concerta we changed from vivance 36 MG twice a day. I usually take half that I also supplement with magnesium in the morning. I was having issues with sleep. I have to take first thing in the morning. Seems to help. Memory is almost back to normal. Less brain fog as well. Getting old sucks sometimes 😊😣
It is interesting, it seems to be less of forgetfulness but more of a lack of forming the memory to begin with. For instance if I put something down, I don't think of it, therefore there would be nothing to remember and thus I would appear that I forgot where it was, where in actuality, I never knew where it was to begin with.
this is actually amazing news! stimulants are not ideal for me for a number of reasons (eating disorder, insomnia, etc), but Strattera had a horrible reaction (mostly blood pressure) with my prozac that ended with me in the hospital. currently on Adderall XR, but am going to switch to something else next week. my doc wanted me to try vyvanse but medicaid won’t cover it until you try the most common 3 meds first fml
My health conditions contraindicate stimulants as well. Some of my children take them ( we don't present with the outward hyperactivity behaviors I wonder if I could take this so wondering about this new option for myself My internest-psychiatrist thirty years ago, stated, " There are meds that can be given to you that rev up the engine to a really high point, then what will be able to do when you completely collapse the next month or two weeks later because of your physical illnesses?
I was in you position before now and it was hard to get things done and go out for social gatherings, I had to prepare my mind and body to go out it was a hassle, I used psychedelic mushroom which helped me tremendously, it was the best decision I made to get to where I am today , I get it from an online vendor run by a mycologist
I’m in my 40’s and just recognizing my symptoms. I thought due to it being a fad in school in the 90’s that I truly believed was a negative thing or I could live without more medications. I have been unemployed for nearly 3 months and I’ve had the time to focus on things I want to do along with hyper focused studies. In addition I’m epileptic that is controlled. So yeah I learned 1 in 5 Epileptics have ADHD/A.D.D. I often want to escape American culture and go back to Asia Europe or some other locations to do what I love; which is traveling. Teachers don’t get paid in America so I won’t teach here. I don’t love Sales but since I’m about to start a new job I’m more concerned on changing my career and using the extra money to pay for another degree 📜 just to change my field of work. I have a tendency to talk in tangents and I’m working hard on it. My home is a mess and yet I have to move. I’m not interested in doing much until the last minute but I know it’s not an option or shouldn’t be. Garbage
Mark I feel your pain. I've known the symptoms for years. It seems at least from what I read you propped a milestone or two though the years. Me, I just turned 42, been back living at home since '08. Between jobs living in the dark. Day by day the older I get the worse the feelings get. I can't financially afford the help.
@@mikez.6309 same here, bud. cept I’ll be turnin 36 next month. tbh, either people don’t, actually, know much, if anything, about adult adhd, or they just flat out don’t care and are only in it for the money. cause, like, if they knew anything about adult adhd, then they would know that failure to maintane employment, or even obtain employment, is one of the most, if not THE most, prevelant traits/characteristics of someone w adult adhd. like, how am I supposed to try to better myself if everything’s “trial and error” and costs me an arm and a leg, but I’m unemployed?!?
@@specialk864 I will put it this way in terms of job maintainability. I see employment in this country (or state I'm living in at the very least), weather it be payroll or -voluntary- (which can be a gift to some of us "niech" protectors). As a right to work. The shit tends to hit the fan in terms of time management however when we tend to let go and work in ways or at a pace that's comfortable to us to maintain our sanity (as the bosses always advise us to do) when we're working with a lower-on-the-ladder OCD assistants who has that "I been here longer so you better do it my way" vibe, or a manager who uncomfortably throws that since of urgency or pressure upon us with no understanding at all. We have to work twice as hard to be presentable. But working a union job and you're usually in good hands. There's quite a few of them out there. Now Forrest Gump. Best movie there is. And recently I made a moto for myself "PlayLikeGump" Forrest's actions, no overthinking, no timidation, and fully resilient. Resilience is an important trait to build.

If you eventually get fired for it, hey, at least we had the experience, and our values and traits are the best staples to any forthcoming resume'. I'm back at work luckily.
21 here. It didn't start clicking that I have adhd until I failed college. I showed up Bright and early, took extra steps to make sure i paid attention, even partook in all activities. Yet I just couldn't will myself to remember anything I needed to for the testing. I was always behind no matter what I did, nothing would just click. Life completely derailed for me after failing. Too much happened, and I can't even find the problem to make things right anymore. Whether its the ADHD depression or just situational depression, this is going to be a harder fight than it needed to be
I got prescribed qelbree and it changed my life. Its the new non stimulant drug that was just approved 2 years ago. It got my entire life back on track, literally laser focus like I have never had before. It made everything seem easy and stuff that used to be difficult to me were now a non issue. I cannot believe I didnt do it sooner.
Stimulants and non-stimulants are defined by what they actually do in the body, not the resulting side effects. Stimulants increase activity in the central nervous system (CNS), speed up messages (transmissions) sent around the body and mind, and may increase the production of certain neurotransmitters, like dopamine and norepinephrine, making people feel more alert and responsive. That can also result in increased heart rate as a side effect. This non-stimulant is a norepinephrine re-uptake inhibitor. It doesn't stimulate the CNS nor activate the production of norepinephrine, just stops it from being re-absorbed after being produced. I'm assuming the elevated blood pressure and heart rate would be a result of the higher levels of norepinephrine floating in the brain. Some people don't take stimulants because of pre-existing heart and blood pressure conditions, too many negative side effects outweighing the positives, no benefit or effect from stimulants (less than 20%, I believe), interactions between other prescribed medications, lack of accessibility, cost, etc.
Left undiagnosed it can lead to severe depression and anxiety. I was misdiagnosed with depression/anxiety for years and couldn't find relief, but finally turned my attention towards the notion that I have ADHD. When I did that it completely changed my identity of myself and I finally started to put the pieces together and finally got help that worked.
Psilocybin Mushrooms and Psychedelics are very beneficial to humans and it has really helped ease my anxiety and depression also people with health issues you can get them from the below specialist details can also guide you if you're a newbie to it?
Hopeful this new tool will help! People need to understand it's in the brain!!! Don't believe people who say it's not!!! All things need to work together meds, therapy,and nutrition!!!!
Medication is good but you really need to be able to work with it , Know how it's going to affect.Your outcome after so many years are habits are not.Always Focused period
Read the warnings and side effects. This stuff can cause or worsen some disorders. Suicidal thoughts or actions, increased high blood pressure, and worsening of bipolar are some side effects. If you choose to take this, you and a trusted close family member or your healthcare advocate need to stay in close contact with your doctor and tell him if you have any side effects.
My life is unmanagable. I just don't get to work on time daily! I was prescribed Vyvanse and I ended up jumping off that and other meds. It was right before Covid and I swear because of Covid, it’s so hard to get a psychiatrist. It’s been that long and then they change my health plan and they want you to see a therapist like I don’t know how many times it doesn’t matter. I have documentation like serious documentation about this I get SSI because of it and I’m working two jobs at a school full-time and son‘s father died and I just am overdoing it I’m 47 and I think I’m a screwup because of it and I I might as well be you know you know how they say alcoholism makes peoples lives unmanageable or this is just as bad, I’m sure because I looked at a notebook when I was in school at another facility and I saw the writing and how neat it was and at first glance I said who wrote that to myself I’m sorry I’m not putting quotations but yeah it was me and I started crying. I’m tired of the older you need to see a therapist all because they want more money like listen. I have tons of prescriptions proof of my diagnoses like what why can’t I just get a psychiatrist I don’t have time for a therapist and to be honest with you I don’t want to have a therapist and the reason for that is there’s nothing that they can do other than give me money to get out of situations I have never been able to get out of for the last 20 years so talking it out will never ever ever ever ever be the cure. What is the cure is the damn drug that the government doesn’t want people doing because it’s addictive for people that don’t have it or maybe people that do have it but I’m 47 and I had Concerta once a day and I was fine. Just needed one in the morning! She switch to Vyvanse and I could focus and I started growing a garden and like my interests came back in the summertime. I could leave the house and maybe go to the dollar store! I don’t do anything I’d rather sit in my room with my cat I hate going out, I have pressure to be somewhere on time and I don’t know what in the world is causing me to wake up very early and still not make it to work on time like I just can’t my mind wanders like right I can’t I always interrupt, and I try to tell people I’m not interrupting you when you try to confide in me about a horrible situation when I say this happen to me I’m trying to do is get you to be late, but have you realize you’re not alone but it seems rude so with that being said, I flunked my full-time school semester and I am ready to get human resources. Tell me that I suck because I’m always late and I was always late at Nordstrom rack and coming back from break. My mind will just wander and I just can’t take it anymore and I’m tired of it. There’s got to be psychiatrist that will look at my paperwork just die just do a damn psych social you’ll see you know I mean they will see I can’t explain and coffee used to have a coffee does nothing to fall asleep you know I just, I have to say that you know how they say it’s progressive illness with addiction. I have to say that at 47 years old. I cannot believe that I am worse than I was when I was seven years old and I stayed back because of comprehension and looking out the window in and not being able to read or write like things like that I mean they didn’t diagnose me back then with it but that’s what it was I saw some old report cards with the teachers used to write in cursive end it would be she’s looking out the window and you know she gets up offered Doub desk it starts playing like yeah that was when I was young but like I just can’t even begin to explain how much my life absolutely sucks and I’m going to try another new tropic I did it with thesis, and I thought it worked and guess what I was just calling myself. I really need these medication. I need this medication because I can’t stand my life anymore. I feel like such a loser.

I just bought Noopept and Bromantane to go with my adhd medicine, also don't forget Citicholine, and Tyrosine ( you need it to make dopamine) and a good Bcomplex
Modafinil works pretty good for me and easy to get . I also use tianeptene which can be purchased but be very careful with upping the dose on tianeptene because at higher doses it hits those opiate receptors. These two can be purchased online very easily with a little research. I also am prescribed addy and Ritalin. The reason I have all these medications for my adhd is because I prefer to not up the dose when one seems to be not working anymore and switch the medication instead. I usually wait a week or two in between medication and also with tianeptene I keep the dose no more than ten mg at three times a day . I also found 4fmph online which is actually a strong version of Ritalin.

DO NOT TAKE THESE! I switched to these a few years ago and after a year I switched back. Yes I didn’t have the jitters but if I missed just one day of medication I would have the worst migraine of my life the next day and be vomiting for hours. Until that medication I hadn’t thrown up in over 5 years, I never vomit even when I’m sick, and I’ve never had a migraine in my entire life until these meds too. Plus they didn’t do much for my adhd, I just wanted to warn others because I had a terrible experience with it.
I would no trust a adhd expert if they don’t even have it themselves you can’t know how it actually feels nor how the drugs actually can have a very positive or even negative impact
@@nziom It’s all a modern day disease. You can go “muh genetics” but there’s no way this sort of problem was as widespread as nowadays. All these processed foods, contaminated water supplies with oestrogen and constant electronics exposure affecting our genes.
1:40 thats an odd statistic. Where does the 4.4% come from if 75% of that 4.4% dont have an official and recorded diagnosis (dont know they have ADHD per her words)? Is that including reported symptoms? I am all for brining awareness to late ADHD diagnoses but the statistics gotta be more clear than that!

Over the years I must have been looking into literally over hundreds of articles of all the neurotypical disorders known and (put together) only see about 20 percent of those articles adult affiliated. But in society I don't feel like a 20%'er. I feel like a .0001%'er. But it doesn't even matter say if for instance it be just a group of 100 people in one spot with the disorder or the entire world's population, we'd still judge each other's faults.
I’m 66 and I was misdiagnosed as a child (in the 1960’s) and, as a result, my life took a shit all over me. Even as an adult, I was misdiagnosed with ptsd/depression…was prescribed Prozac which only dulled my emotions. Unfortunately, Quellbre causes 2 side effects that are almost always associated with it: incapacitating constipation and nausea. It’s very rough on a persons gi tract (universally) and, causes an increase in hypertension. As with most drugs, there’s a laundry list of significant side effects. So, if you already have bowel issues then this is not a good choice. Get properly screened/diagnosed and, get treatment because this NEVER goes away and it will turn your life into something you don’t want!!!
Thanks for the information on the drug she talks about. Now I don't have to research it as I won't try it. I already have digestive issues, not constipation nor diarrhea, but diverticulosus.
Not for everyone. Less than 20% experience no effect or benefit from stimulants, and some of them do experience benefits from non-stimualnts. Outside of those, some people have too many side effects outweighing the positives, pre-existing heart and blood pressure conditions, interactions with other prescribed medication, lack of access or insurance coverage in area, high costs, etc.
There is an ADHD stimulant shortage. We don’t need to be cross sold useless placebos with side effects. It’s the DEA. Be fair to existing patients not a part of telehealth. It’s an injustice.
Parkinson disease is a very terrible illness, my Dad suffered from it for 19 years until we finally got a help and a medicine that truly works that helped treat, cure and reversed all his symptoms totally 💯... My Dad is well again..
Everyone hears saying it's useless yet I'm able to take a low stimulant dose thx to clondine n now about to drop my clondine dose n maybe switch to different stimulant or drop my addy dose thx to intuniv
Trouble for me is that I CAN more or less keep control of myself.. so onlookers will just think I’m arrogant or similar. Finally discovered it recently while thinking about the fact that at home I’m constantly restless. I thought for ages it was generalised anxiety.
My fiancé has generalized anxiety and I am now diagnosed with ADHD, we can have similar symptoms, however the core thing causing the symptoms are different. The brain is very strange.
I have read many books, I listened to many RU-vid videos by many of the world's leading gurus and health experts but nothing came close to the hidden herbs by anette ray. I recommend everyone giving it a read.
I pray to God that everyone who is reading this gets better and stays healthy. What helped me is using the herbs from the book the hidden herbs by anette ray
Men, be VERY careful of dating or being involved with women taking this drug. Men, be especially careful of any women who take this and drink alcohol... monster madness surfaces. Peace.
Why are patients going to doctors in person and receiving adderall for 15 years being punished for what the telehealth did prescribing adderall incorrectly. The DEA has perpetuated this injustice. They need to take responsibility and raise quotas since they licensed telehealth and had no oversight.

Eff off with your “careless errors”. Do you not see how that perpetuates the view of people with ADHD not caring about their mistakes? They care very much and it makes their lives miserable hearing that kind of rhetoric repeated.
That's not true. I was on Vyvanse for 8 years and it was great, however, it was minimal for my add. It made my racing thoughts race even more, I was more motivated to do things except they were all useless things. It made me alert and awake, but didn't do much for my attention span.
I'm on this page now because trying to straighten my room has me dropping halfway projects to start another project give this about six times. Thank you for your info
