I have ADHD and whenever I engage in conversation I either talk too much about something I really like without realizing it or I don’t know how to include myself into a conversation
It's never too late to start your self improvement journey! Sounds like there are things you'd like to improve in your life. Maybe ask yourself what you need to do to achieve those things you want instead of framing it as things you don't do or do poorly. Hope this helps!
Is add and adhd the same thing I was diagnosed with ADHD but one of my tutorial teachers in middle school told me that she sees signs of ADD and adhd and I can’t really get straight answers
ADD and ADHD are the same thing, with different aspects. It used to just be called ADHD, but they split it into two types. ADD shares the problems with focusing, sensory sensibilities, lack of organization etc with ADHD. But ADHD also has the hyperactivity part.
I never thought about this wanting to bypass acquaintance-ship and want authentic relationships. This really is a behaviour. And it is strange for people. Also the verbal behaviour maybe is lead by this hi-speed want to be open and authentic. Thank you. K ; )
I'm not really sure where I sit on the ADHD scale, there are some qualities that I can relate to and others that I don't. Ever since I graduated high school, I've always based my life around routines, and without knowing it, it has really helped me with dealing with my ADHD. ADHD has never held me back; the creativity and imagination that come along with it makes the world a fun place.
@@rockymountainfoothills Yeah, you could be right. I try not to label myself as someone with a severe case. Due to the wide range of symptoms associated with the condition, it can be challenging to determine the severity of one's case. It is possible that the symptoms I experience work together in a way that minimizes their negative impact on my daily life.
Why should I have to “check” myself at the door in a world where neurotypicals are socially acceptable. This conversation is helpful but incredibly ablest. Y’all should be training CEOs on how to be more accommodating for neurodivergents. I refuse to reduce myself for anyone’s comfort.
Sorry, but I respectfully disagree. It may be more difficult for neurodivergent folks like us in society, but we have to face the fact that our brains just aren't as functional as neurotypical brains. Just because we have some strengths to make up for our weaknesses, doesn't mean our condition is a good thing. For example, blind people usually have an exceptional sense of hearing and touch to make up for lack of sight, but that doesn't make blindness a good thing or a normal thing. Sure, it's always a good thing for people to be accomodating to us, but that's going above and beyond. I believe we need to put in the effort to build ourselves up and not expect the world to revolve around us. The "neurodiversity" movement is toxic, in my opinion, because it's the same Marxist ideology as other political movements. Pitting blacks against whites, gay vs straight, neurodivergent vs neurotypical. Not good. Harmful.
You check yourself at the door because you want a better life. You can be your fun and quirky ADHD self all you want, but when that results in isolation you might want to think twice about whether you want to wait for the whole world to accept you, or try to adapt and thrive.
Nobody is going to accept annoying or rude behavior nor should they have to. It is very inconsiderate and self-centered to think that everyone else has to adjust to your condition. In every social interaction people are acting under a social contract and making concessions about how they act and what they speak about. Apart of becoming socialized is finding a way to act such that others are able to at least tolerate you and at best value your presence. It takes both emotional intelligence and self awareness to understand what is an appropriate way to act in certain contexts. You should strive to have social awareness and in turn people will give you the benifit of the doubt.

Same here. No middle ground I’m just riding the pendulum 😅 you are not alone. We can improve
How were u able to survive 18 minutes 😭
Social skills. I have very poor ones. What a mess. And I’m 47. I never got diagnosed. But heck I Know. And what a mess of a life 😔
There is nothing wrong with you. We just live in a world that was not designed to accept our brains, skills, and brilliance.
Read and watch videos of Gabor Mate ; ) K

I'm 37 and just realized it's ADHD. My social skills are terrible I think at loud and have crazy eye

Thanks for the video! This describes me very well in social situations. I've got a lot to work on but this explains why I'm struggling.

Well like any diagnosis it’s on a continuum and it sounds like you might experience mild impairment in terms of the diagnosis.

15:20 Information overload?
18 minutes is a great timescale if you aiming towards an ADHD audience on ur video!
I’m being sarcastic

Yes!!!! Its one thing to practice selfcare, but they are asking for masking. Its ablest and harmful.

@@engineer4god470 I don't like to think of my condition like that it's very demotivating even though I am very competent
