  smartphones do not induce adult ADHD, they are a convenient coping mechanism for someone who had ADHD before smartphones were invented.

  I grew more into my adhd. It deff got worse as I got older, but like now that I look at my childhood I see all the connections

  I don&apos;t need help with &apos;focusing&apos;, I need help with motivation to do mundane tasks. This is rarely talked about even in clinical settings. I also have ADHD.

  It&apos;s always a treat to see people who don&apos;t have ADHD trying to teach others about it 🙈 You literally COULD NOT KNOW. Even a neuroscientist doesn&apos;t know just because he&apos;s done &quot;research&quot;. The conviction he has about it is counterintuitive.

  Thank you so much for calling him out! I watched a few minutes of his ADHD video when it popped up in my YouTube feed. I couldn’t continue because it felt so ableist and disconnected. Thank you for articulating why it didn’t sit right and for fact checking his misinformation. 🎉

  He is giving &quot;everyone is a little ADHD&quot; vibes... 😂<br><br>I got a degree and I performed well on the outside. I had severe CPTSD and I studied a lot just to get out of my abusive household. I was completely fueled by cortisol and adrenaline from age 10 to 25. I can agree on the comment about being scared of the consequences, but living that way is the absolute worst.<br>When I got my diagnosis and took my first med it was like... Silence. <br><br>My brain was completely silent, I suddenly could focus on what I wanted. I could finish my tasks without the horrible boredom... It was the biggest AHA moment of my life. <br><br>My life has improved so much that I feel like I live in an alternate reality. I treated my CPTSD and now I feel so normal. I wash dishes, do laundry, respond emails... I don&apos;t lose my keys multiple times a day.

  I&apos;ve been running off trying harder my whole life - was exhausting, stressful and confusing. I&apos;m 54. Was recently diagnosed with adhd. Started medication and my life changed.

  I remember I watched this episode when I first started to suspect that I have ADHD, it made me abandon the idea for a while before I lost again and looked for other resources. I was diagnosed a year after that.

  Just because someone isn’t officially diagnosed with ADHD doesn’t mean they don’t have ADHD. Getting diagnosed is really really hard.

  He did a second video on adhd a couple of years after this one where he focuses on medication and how adhd actually occurs. He suffered a lot of criticism on this first video and I would love to see you react to the second one, because in my opinion the second video is one of the best videos on the topic of adhd! <br>Thank you for your great video and great analysis, I agree with almost all you said
