When nobody seems to understand and everyone says “your always making excuses” it hurts because no matter how hard you try you can’t get yourself to be “normal”

I am 70yo and just happened to stumble across your short about ADHD and interrupting. It described EXACTLY how I feel. I was never diagnosed with ADHD (I'm pretty sure it didn't exist as a thing when I was little!) but now I have watched a bunch of your shorts about it and am very grateful to finally [potentially] have an explanation for certain aspects of my personality. I've probably had ADHD my whole life. Anyway, thank you thank you thank you!!

I was diagnosed at 6 people been judging me all my life and family puts me down no help but the key is to believe in yourself and never give up

The negative self-talk especially around personal relationships. When I’m with friends and family, I know they love me but the moment I’m alone, I’m convinced they hate me.

Right now the anger that explodes like a volcano but I'm also struggling with PTSD, so it's "shared blame"

emotional regulation issues, forgetfulness which can affect friends or work at times, racing thoughts, difficulty completing tasks, feelings of not reaching my potential. I find I am calmer and more focused and a nicer person when I take my ADHD meds, but then sometimes I have a rebound effect once it wears off where I can get hyper reactive to stimulus or triggers.

Waking up in the morning with other stressors in my head. When life is overwhelming, I tend to oversleep

My family members tell me to slow down and that I talk to fast. A lot of people think I’m on drugs. I was diagnosed at the age of 47. I had to see a Psychiatrist before I had brain surgery. He told me to slow down when I was talking. He told me I had ADHD. I thought this entire time I was bi - polar. I refuse to take medication for it. Because I’m already on medication for other health issues.

Not sure if you'll see this but my husband is a meth addict. He relapsed. It's so much worse this time. I want to walk away but I just don't know how.

Literally every aspect, but especially the low dopamine and addictions.

Cleaning my house! I start cleaning my house and for some reason I can never get it straightened out! I can work all day cleaning and putting things away and because I start in one room remember something in another room I need to do. Get there and decide something else needs to be done first, before I realize it my husband is home I’m exhausted and not one thing was accomplished THE WHOLE LIVE LONG DAY! My husband has learned not to ask “ What have you done all day?”

Not being able have the knowledge and the name associated with my biggest issue in life was. Always being told whats wrong and to stop doing what I do. Nobody listening to me. So for example the best way I can describe it I give everybody a billion dollars no matter what the interaction is or how little and every time I interact with them. The return rate I give everybody a billion dollars no matter what the interaction is or how little and every time I interact with them. No I don't expect anything. The return rate is in the negative.
