As a man living with both, it can be living hell. I mostly isolate myself, but I'm brimming with imagination and creativity. So, due to the intensity, it is difficult maintaining and fighting relationships.

Within the last 3 years I also have been diagnosed BPD and later with ADHD and relate to your comment ,I'm 58 now . Sank pretty low to get diagnosed via mental health teams. Also referred last year for ASD assessment ,oddly I have 2 Sons one with ADHD and the other ASD yet I never made a connection even though we are alike lol.

I’ve known I have adhd for awhile, just recently discovered I have bpd after an episode that landed me in a facility. I’m tired of being the way I am, constantly destroying my life and I want to change but whenever I try my brain is like: look at your life so far, clearly you are just on this earth to make it burn. I just want to be a good son to my mom, I don’t deserve her but hopefully learning more about this disorder will help me change.

Just found your channel via a recommendation in a bpd subreddit, oh wow, I've never had ANYONE to talk with about having ADHD and bpd at the same time and this is helping so much.

*listening to this as I frantically clean the house before people come over this evening* Me: I think I need to talk to my therapist about ADHD next session. Lol

Learning to be more self-compassionate has helped me a lot. It helps me to re-regulate my nervous system quicker, and it helps me not to dig myself into an even deeper shame/impulsivity vortex 😅 Thank you so much guys for addressing this topic! 🤗

This is such a dense and valuable discussion! For manufactured urgency: Sometimes when I’m cooking food in the microwave, I will run around and get as much tidying done as possible before the timer goes off. Sometimes just setting a timer by itself is enough to get going. It always amazes me how much I can get done in just a few minutes!

@ariellelouth9766 8 месяцев назад

I resonated with all of your guys' discussion. I so appreciate this youtube channel and community.

Yeah, it’s a really cool project.

@Tailionis 8 месяцев назад

I can't. They are way too giddy and happy. I'm just bleh in life. Live and avoid pain. It's all I resonate with.

@user-no2mz9hl4f 8 месяцев назад

@@Tailionis I’m sorry to hear that. As someone who struggles with depression, I can relate to feeling “bleh” in life. It sucks. But I think it’s also important to remember that it doesn’t have to be like that forever. There are treatments and things which can and do help. Also, I’m sure that everyone in this episode can also relate to feeling low and flat at various time of their lives. What we see in this episode is just a snapshot of their lives, and they’re likely putting on their best faces because it’s a show. What you see here isn’t exactly like real life. I wish you all the best, and I hope you’re able to get the help you need to feel better.

This is a good reminder that, while there may be right things to do, there is no one right way to do them.

I've been learning more about what BPD means to me since my diagnosis earlier this year, and decided to search bpd adhd and found this channel. I was diagnosed with adhd around 3 years ago which was freeing, but learning more about people with both bpd and adhd feels like a hug for my inner child who has struggled so long to feel understood. Can't wait to watch more from this bunch!

It's so draining. Brain works so fast at times. Probably because of so many instances of "urgent action" I'd love to have enough interest to plan and schedule better but it bores me so much. My head remembers what I need to do but documenting and planning is almost painful. I can communicate so fluently in conversation but planning is like my brain is in slow motion unless I have ultimate responsibility and people rely on me that I am motivated because of the shame of letting people down if I don't. Relate to the cleaning comments too. Read my School report and comments such as "she can be eager to rush into situations, a calmer approach would benefit her." "She must begin to improve her levels of concentration" " She must listen more intently and ask for help" " tends to talk rather too much in many lessons, concentration should be sharper" "Contributes in class discussion but needs to listen more in Group tasks" "Individual tasks require more preparation" "She needs to concentrate more and be more consistent" " can contribute well to lessons but can at times distract others from tasks" "I would instruct her to listen to instructions more carefully" ( comments made by multiple Teacher when I was 12) never picked up...

This was really eye opening for me. I feel so validated by all of your experiences. It’s confirmed a suspicion I’ve had for myself that I’m going to follow up. Thankyou so much
