what symptoms do they exhibit/experience?

I’ve always suspected I have it bcuz I was “diagnosed” with it as a child but back then parents didn’t take things like that seriously as the belt “solved” everything…on the other hand I have seen kids get medicated for that shyt and it reduced some of them to zombie status…literally sitting in class drooling and shyt so in hindsight maybe they were right not to take me to a doctor for further diagnosis


THEY WERE RIGHT 100000%

ADHD is the theorized “warrior gene”. research it

society makes you feel crazy cuz it’s a mental trait that impedes on societal indoctrination.

Spectrum autism is another

i was diagnosed as a kid (adhd) and as an adult, it’s a super power. While everyone has been beaten into focus on societal validation, I see the world for what it is and the beauty they don’t know how to appreciate anymore (nature, ppl watching etc).

best way to deal with it is realizing first
Nothing is NATURALLY wrong with you

Possibly one of the worst symptoms is having conversations with yourself, overthinking and daydreaming far too often. It's as if you live in your own world in your mind. There's different types of ADHD though, the one I have is predominantly inattentive.

I took concerta for my final year of university than dropped that shyt. Absolutely awful stuff.

:lupe: You're scaring me because I've been doing this since I could remember... I've never been reported to get checked out though.

I have ADHD
You need medication for productivity otherwise you are a daydreamer who has to put in effort to do basic tasks

Yeah I'm probably going to have to try that soon. Concerta worked, it eliminated the 'noise" in my head and allowed me to concentrate, but I felt like complete shyt mentally and physically.

repetitive day dreams and nonstop internal noise are the worst symptoms.

Are sure ya'll really have it have it. I've know 3 guys throughout my life who really had it, they were all similar, heavily medicated, and guys you didn't want to get locked in a conversation with. I know 2 of them tried to join the military but couldn't.

I agree and disagree.

I feel Online it is getting attention now as people are now more open about having it and people are understanding it better as previously ADHD was associated solely with those bad ass kids that be on a 100 24-7.
When in reality not everyone who has it is like that, and a lot of us went unnoticed and diagnosed as we were the opposite and flew under the radar for years whilst struggling.

However its also being romanticized by the TikTok generation who are making videos making out like having ADHD is quirky.
People tweeting about symptoms like "omg I have this" when chances are a lot of them dont, yeah you may be able to relate to some of the stuff but a lot of people dont understand how much it can impact your life.
Its not something you can just shake off.

As someone whos struggled over the past decade or so, and only got my diagnosis last year
And still to this day struggling...I'm technically medicated but the medication is ineffective.
Im waiting to be seen again so I can try something new...supposed to be months ago but had cancellation after cancellation.

shyt damn near wrecked my life past few years especially so to see people online talking like having its cute its annoying.
Treating ADHD as trendy.

However I feel outside the internet its still relatively misunderstood, even just explaining to my parents and people its obvius to see
