  • Yeah this is a very serious probl... Oh look a butterfly

  • I have ADHD combined type... i'm 19, and honestly i live the best life i love everything about it. im genuinely happy and have been sense i was 15! childhood was rough, but unlike most i loved and still am loving my teens! depression result of ADHD? fuck no. im popular as hell. everybody loves me! :DDDDDD but yeah i am an aggressive guy, and i do def use a lot of drugs >.> never thought maybe ADHD had somethign to do with that...? :O anyways. yeah. i love my ADHD, it makes me who i am..original

  • adhd started around the same time people stoped beating their spoiled kids.

  • OMG..dylan sprouse has ADHD I hope he will be ok :((

    Plus his my crush haha..

  • Brought to you by the psychiatric and pharmaceutical industries...psychiatry which doesn't know what it is talking about and has never scientifically proven any of their created 'disorders' and the pharmaceutical industry to provide them with their profits.

  • Rubbish. I have never seen someone with ADHD. They were badly behaved. They were the sort of person who is generally badly behaved, rude, violent. They were from the sort of family who underachieves and were not willing to learn. They were poorly brought up.

  • Fuck ADHD ! I Feel Dumb As Fuck I Just Got Some Friends To Hang Out Wiith And Im 16.

    I Feel Awkward As Fuck Im Goin Crazy. Tried Smoking Weed But It Doesnt Fuckin Work For Me Except For Being Paranoid and shit... Im Normal except for Being Spaced Out all the time. I Have A Abercombie body But No Fuckin Girl Friend. Why The Fuck Am I Writing This ?

  • @DGK612 there is no such thing as ADHD, youre completely normal in every way, everybody is. if you see yourself as someone that has ADHD then you will be that person. We are just the imagination of ourselves, and if you realise that you dont have ADHD and you can be whatever you want to be then you will start to feel happy and love yourself.

  • @DGK612 ...and dont bother trying to be someone else that you look up to, because that will never work, you need to be you, you are different to every single person out there, so dont worry about what people say about adhd and take no notice of who they expect you to be. you were just told you have it when you were younger and the thought grows until ..

  • @DGK612 ...it rules your life. If a school was labled "naughtiest school" or "most hyperactive school" then all the kids that go there will play to it, they think they are a naughty child so they do naughty things. if a child was called an idiot, he would think, that others think he is an idiot, that will then make him think he must be an idiot. 

  • What they mean by 'Math, reading, and learning may be harder' is that you might forget a negative sign or letters jump around when you read a word. You also might need to be taught something twice to get it. My mind does these things all the time. The video meant nothing bad. :)

  • @misteryA555 if that happened that would be dyslexia

  • @ExtraterrestrialMIND well, I've taken 25 different medicines over the past 10 years so it will take some time to find THE medicine

  • it's actually better to have ADHD or ADD if you play sports because you have the energy to run and you can think faster than people without ADHD or ADD so you know what's going on better. and I know this from personal experience I LOVE playing sports

  • @AngryLoo a kid with ADHD is hyperactive and doesnt focus well and get mad easily. ADD kids are all of that exept that they are more aggresive to others. and no adults can act sophomoric if they aren't given the correct treatment as a child or never gets over ADHD or ADD

  • I suffer from all those symtoms except the drug use and social problems. But about 60% of children with ADHD are misdiagnosed. There are usually other problems that seem like they are ADHD but aren't. :)

    Great video!

  • @theflipking

    Anesia......?

  • @sohardcomingupwith

    Im pretty sure they mean medcine :)

  • I have ADHD , with the tics,

    And no we dont mean the bugs,

    We mean teraites syndrom.

    Teraites mean uncontrolable movements by arm , legs , and face.

  • On the ground but I didn't think it though and now she hates me it's stupid things like these that piss me off

  • This video has offended me GREATLY! I'm 15 and alll my life I have struggled GREATLY my brother and grandmother both suffer from it, as a child I had horrible sleeping problems and needed medication, I had no friends which made it worse, everyone made fun of me, and I was deeply depressed however people with ADHD tend to be smarter than normal people due to the ways our brains process information. I had been on medication since 2nd grade but this past year I was released from it on my own choic

  • I have adhd :/ its rlly fucked hah I cant control shit I do

  • My life is screwed

    Curse u adhd

  • Damn, I'm sorry for everyone who takes their medication and can't eat. My Vyvanse doesn't affect my appetite at all, although I am on a relatively low dose (20 mg.)

  • I'm not going to discuss the pro/cons of medicating ADHD. Even the scientific world is still divided on that one, so do your own research and figure out if its helpful or harmful for you.

    Just wanted to say: Why would you make a video about ADHD and then talk this SLOWLY?! Think most of us wanted her to hurry the fuck up after 20sec!

  • Any parents watching this just think of how you could ruin a large part of your child's life by overreacting about this sort of thing. Just speak to your kid and see what they think then once you actually have an understanding of the situation (not from YouTube videos) then you can take action if you want.

  • This is bullcrap. I mean in a lot of cases ADHD actually makes you think faster but find it harder to concentrate on the learning( I know it does for me ) and why treat it like a disease that needs to be destroyed. Obviously the person who made this had no actual experience with ADHD

  • neurobiological?!?! hahaha BULLSHIT

  • Wow when was this video made? 1955? we should know much more about ADHD by now

  • Thumbs up if Your answer to this video is FUCK YOU!!!

  • @ravenreet

    BUT WE MUST IMPROVE THE CHILD'S QUALITY OF LIFE!

  • @piirken you see, the problem is, that the old generation doesn't really understand, what is ADHD. It really is a blessing. It Is Quality! ADHD means, that You have a lot of energy within You, a lot more, than Your mind can possibly comprehend, but ass You get older You learn to use this energy. So it is very important to give the child a meaningful life, a positive channel to fill. But never suppress it with drugs. I had ADHD. Now im a programmer. Nothing bad has happened.

  • THIS IS BULLSHIT

  • 1) Is ADHD a new name for it? I always thought it was simply called ADD. 2) Why are they only going on about children here? Is it not also possible for adults to suffer from this disorder?

  • It pisses me off how people use "ADHD" as an insult.

    My childhood was screwed because of it, I acted like an idiot only in the 1st and 2nd grade of elementary school, later it was just a social mask. Also, it's bullcrap that it causes learning problems, it actually makes you think way faster (at least in my case), I just have to play with something in my hand or move my leg (usually right leg for some reason).

  • im a quiet and calm person but i find it hard to talk socially. it seams like im trap in my mind with random toughts that will popin when im talking to a person. about anything.... idk if thats adhd or what...

  • @RainK9 exact samething i xperience.....someone needs to reply to us with an answer

  • @RainK9 @ReverseMyCurse1 Many symptoms of psychiatric disorders apply to most people to a degree. That's why disorders like ADHD are often mis or over diagnosed. I'm not a psychiatrist but I doubt you have ADHD, only with the symptoms you described.

    One factor that psychiatrists consider in diagnosis is the EXTENT of behaviour(s) in concern. If you really think your behaviours are extreme then you should see a psychiatrist. Just remember not to jump to conclusions and swallow unnecessary pills

  • Im not sure if i have Adhd, ive done a few online screening tests and come out as highly likely. In school concentrating on one thing was almost impossible (im 25 now), ive only ever read two books all the way through by my own choice because i just cant sit still long enough to read a few pages.... I completed a bachelors degree by distance education the only way i could concentrate to do my assignments was to have something like a tv show going at the same time. Also while looking on the net

  • I'm 15 and I'm bad, sometimes I'm calm and I can work but then the next moment I'm really really loud and I'm able to shout and damage my voice, I can make my sister cry (she's 16) and I can make my mum angry. The last time I was bad was a few hours ago and I locked her in a room XD the only way to calm me down it to run or jog for a long distanc. I get really scared (sometimes I'm sick) for no reason. Last month I was depressed and was harming myself (for no reason) dose this sound like ADHD?

  • i think i have adhd, in lessons i get distracted really easily and find it hard to pay attention.. i also get random body twitches when i am sat down for too long, does this mean i have adhd? lol

  • Only stupid parents will drug there kids with this FUCKING drug. People get brain wash easily, ADHD was made up to experiment on people's brain.

  • I just learned today that i might have ADHD...

    Just wish i knew this years ago (I'm 27 now)

    The early years was soposed to be the time to learn and

    grow up when your brain is developing.

    I guess my life starts now then.

    If the medication really works, I'll be sooo happy.

    just thinkin' about all the years of not knowing.

    Makes me feel like my life so far was wasted.

    I hope I have it though, cause now i can actually do something about it.

  • I have ADHD and I find it extremely annoying when buying meds to help me they always treat me like a drug addict it's annoying

  • Was this video made by a drug company that sells ADHD drugs?

    Please reply to this comment.

  • Dear people,

    You don't have ADHD. You're all incredible individuals.

  • Comment removed

  • I am 27 years of age and I still suffer with adhd and still find it difficult to do things. This video does help explain a lot.

  • Comment removed

  • it was called day dreaming in my day and then acting angry when u get found out for doing it

  • I have ADHD me 11 and after watching this video I started to cry because they said people this ADHD are most likely to take drugs.

  • I believe that ADHD is a horribly over-diagnosed disorder that too heavily places an emphasis on medication. I agree that the pharmaceutical companies DO reap the benefits, and that a lot of kids are just being kids instead of being neurologically defective. HOWEVER, with that being said, I feel that ADHD IS a real disorder, and an extremely unfortunate and difficult one at that for those who truly suffer from it.

  • Interesting note, in my current research- suggestions that Vitamin B can be effective in treatment. Starting a personal trail tomorrow.

  • It's odd to look at all the information, knowing full well that I fit the description perfectly, and having never been tested, let alone medicated.

    Medication shouldn't be the automatic response to mental disorders until all other options have been explored. I've learned, as most people will, how to compensate for any difficulties I have. It physically hurts to focus sometimes, but it's doable.

  • I thnk ADHD is basically that the mind cant keep up with itself....if that makes any sense....my doctor says i could have it.

  • Fuck medication! They tell me I have ADHD because I can't pay attention and often forget things. Because of this I suck ass at math but I don't need no goddamn pills.

  • @webkinzhippolo I agree I'm also 13 and I have ADHD I take concerta the pill only makes me a little dizzy but I do have to admit it does make me concentrate a lot more and people on tv shows are always saying were stupid it's just I don't get things as good as others. And what was with the tics? We get tics just as much as anyone else

  • @Kintecist well put.

  • Oh really? Medication is the answer. Bullshit. ADHD was created with a boring educational system that does not stimulate students. Students are forced to sit behind a desk for hours. And do we really expect students to get interested in school when they have more vivid things in their lives such as internet, tv, computer games, parks, bycicles etc... Why don't we find more ways to use these resources to make learning interesting? By the way I'm an educator :-)

  • @Kinetekist I agree with this, I wish I could have used this as a defence at a young age instead of being drugged for a decade.

  • @Kinetekist Are you dumb? ADHD is a genetic PSYCHIATRIC disorder. Under control, medication may be necessary. Of course designing a special curriculum for those with ADHD will help them get through education. But guess what? Behaviours resulting from ADHD are not only school-related. You have no right to pin down medication for a psychiatric disorder as "bullshit." If you're an educator, I suggest you be open-minded... not just your irrational optimism.

  • @201ZEN And just to note, obviously I'm talking about those properly diagnosed with ADHD. Most of the symptoms probably apply to everyone to a certain degree.

  • @Kinetekist THANK YOU!

  • Ok that tells you what it is thanks it helped

  • .cchr

  • www

  • Interesting: My first comment was blocked due to mentioning you all check out a website!

  • ONE OF THE REASONS IT PROBABLY EFFECTS OUR HEALTH IS BECAUSE OF THE MEDICINE IT WON'T LET US EAT!! MY STUPID DOCTOR SAYS I STILL NEED IT BUT I DON'T! IM TIRED OF TAKING THAT STUPID PILL AND CAPSULES WITH YOHURT LIQUIFIED I HATE IT ALL

  • THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT WE AREN'T SMART! KIDS WITH ADHD ARE REALLY SMART! PEOPLE UNDERESTIMATE US!! ADHD SUCKS!!

  • IM A 13 YR OLD GIRL AND I HAVE ADHD AND THAT MEDICINE DOESN'T HELP ME AT ALL!! THE ONLY THING IT HELPS ME WITH IS LOSING WEIGHT AND I AM REALLY HUNGRY BUT I CANT EAT!! JUST COZ WE AREN'T BOOK WORM NERDS AND DON'T GET STUFF RIGHT AWAY

  • why do they hate us just cuz we cant seat still in scool they can stick their medice up their ass

  • The drug part is just wrong I have it and it's not gonna happen you raycist sickos

  • @camsmellmyfart That's not how you spell racist and neither how you use it.

  • I KNEW my sister has ADHD. She's ticked every single thing on this. -_-

  • saff my as hole its bad its nearly mesed up my mined

  • This is bullshit I have ADHD and i only have a problem focusing on things like in school and yes I take the medication I don't think it makes a difference

  • i have adhd aswell, fucking sucks shit.

  • I struggle to get help on Google, so: Every few minutes my mind goes blank and I can't think of anything for a few seconds...what problem is this?

  • Comment removed

  • I'd like to hear an educated answer to why kids with "attention deficit" can focus on a video game indefinitely. Until I hear an adequate answer for that one, I'll continue to say that this is nothing more than ADHE (Adults don't hit enough) or NESD (Not Enough Spankings Disorder)

  • @MisterAsshole2U I'm sorry to say but if you don't have ADHD and do not know how it feels to have one and be treated like shit by others because you look sleepy and slow because you can't stop daydreaming, then it's f***ing mean to say that parents didn't spank the child enough! Jesus, the ignorance is terrible, because of these f* ignorant people I lost my confidence in anything although I had talent doing things that don't require hard concentration and felt like I was a loser for 25 years.

  • @KISSAproductions I'm guessing you probably were a loser for 25 years. ADHD is not the newest excuse, but it is one in a long line of "diseases" that folks these days blame for their failures. I'm not irresponsible...I have a disease called alcoholism. I'm not undisciplined, I have a congenital disorder called ADHD. I'm not a rebellious little shit that needs to have his ass whipped, I have Oppositional Defiant Disorder. Bullshit. You have bad parents and you're a weak person. Grow up.

  • @MisterAsshole2U You're just ignorant. Period. I was different from when I was a child. And my parents were really strict.  My mind used to wander around all the time and I couldn't sit still in school. Nobody would let me play video games all day, btw.

  • @MisterAsshole2U and insulting people over the internet lol - you grow up, coz i'm fine without growing up. Besides, like i said, other ignorant bitches made me feel like shit but i never said i was a loser in any way. So how i recently solved this adhd problem - just got rid of self-insecure so called friends who didn't appreciate anything i did. i agree, there in america many folks just label themselves adhd so they could sit on their lazy asses and do nothing. well luckily i'm not from usa.

  • @MisterAsshole2U So please get rid of the "ADHE/NESD shit as soon as possible. And yes, we can concentrate while working on computer for hours because it is distracting in itself, it catches attention and it is very hard to get off the PC.

  • I'm ADHD and I'm all three types, and I fucking hate it.

  • I disagree with the higher chance to use drugs part, I have ADHD and have never even seen drugs.

  • Comment removed

  • ADHD is not a disease...

  • @MexicanJudge I agree. Sometimes I think of it as a personality. I know someone who supposedly have ADHD, but he's just a hyper active and funny kind of person.

  • People are just different, nothing wrong on that !

  • That you have. Anyway ADHD is a given name to a pattern of behavior who belong to the nature of human being .if you forget staff, if you are used to move around, if you can't listen for more that certainty amount of time etc etc , those are your personal characteristic. You don't need drug that later on will turn you in a zombie . Just work on your skill , everybody can improve . Pills benefits drugs company and "doctor" . Do you know that ADHD is not recognized in many country as personality

  • ThelAJ123 I don't know exactly why you believe t

  • why are people saying it dowent exist i ave it so dosa that mean i dont exist

    idiots

  • ADHD stands for " we are destroying our children because we want to much from them " Instead to drugs our kids we should give a look to the parenting style , to the teachers' high expectations on child , and to the money that " doctors " and company drugs are making on our child . Those poor kids can't refuse the treatments , but they will pay the price . The drugs used for ADHD and ADD lead to permanently brain damages . No way to recover for those kids . Even if your child fits in the rare c

  • @spupass wth no

  • wtf i think i have adhd fuckk

  • I just can't keep focused on a book if I'm reading to the class and I look up alot not even on purpose because I just have to move my head for some reason. I'm 13 and can someone explain this?

  • In one word- EMO

    O_O

  • I have adhd and it sucks to take test and notes during lecture i want to listen but oh well

  • @ijit I FUCKING KNOW RIGHT >:( im getting my medicine like tommorow :\

  • thumbs up if u have adhd. i have it. i hate when teachers yell @ me because i'm walking around.

  • Maybe I have it

  • whats nan:nan? lol i saw it in the loading bar

  • this is garbage

  • Thank you for this information.

  • Sounds like a pharmaceutical companies presentation - you have to be scared of this horrible disease, but we have a drug for you - your only hope :/

  • Comment removed

  • i took this adhd test to see if i could have it or not and it said that i do! i hope i dont. but in my class theres 20 students and none of them have it so maybe i do. but whateva. typically people grow out of it.

  • lol...so ADHD....is just what kids are.

  • Why they make it sound so bad??? D=

  • By watching nearly 2 minutes of this, I think I also might have A.D.H.D. But I don't think it effects me that bad. I have many problems with attention and math calculations, and sometimes behavior. But I don't believe I will need to be diagnosed.

  • :)

    

  • I think ADHD is just a lack of discipline. I lived in Japan for 14 years and had never heard of such thing. Then I moved to the U.S.. Here almost every kid I know has ADHD or some sort. They act pretty immature too and blame on their "ADHD". I think it just depends on how you grow up.

  • @renski1792 fuck off you retard i have adhd and i dont use it as an excuse i have to take meds for it i cant control it

  • Comment removed

  • @nicknicknick342 it's just an opinion dude. but i have a stepbrother who uses ADHD as his excuse for not being good at baseball or any kind of sports. it makes me mad.

  • @renski1792

    Fuck

    YOU

  • @66FishFran grow up mate.

  • @renski1792 Seems like alot of the people in the comments dont have the meds, I take mine and I do fine. I know some kids who do some stupid stuff and blame it on "ADHD"

  • @renski1792 No, ADHD is a real development disorder. However, it is very over-diagnosed in the USA. The diagnostic criteria can be very vague and can easily fit typical children from a skewed viewpoint. You must think of the cultural aspects and their consequential effect. While I do agree that it is immature to blame ADHD for everything, it should definitely be recognized as a variable. Denial of ADHD solves nothing.

  • @renski1792 No, doctors and teachers over diagnose it most people who say they have ADHD don't have it they are just lazy. However people like me who try and try to pay attention just can't do it and sound like a broken record. Teachers just walk away from me when I ask for help or they get mad..

  • @commonloon0 im sorry to hear that man. i guess i dont fully understand what ADHD is..

  • I feel it is fake. I was diagnosed with ADHD and ADD (if that exists anymore) in 5th grade, because I was real bad to my teachers and parents, and couldn't sit still. But still today I get distracted easily, and I am a wild kid. But I don't know if it should be called something, or be called just being a kid.

  • Adhd is a fake "disease" diagnosed to make their parents think that its not their fault their kid isnt obeying, and for the hospitals to make money of medication

  • @kewleodobop NO ITS NOT I HAVE ITT!! dango!!

  • @kewleodobop And what qualifies you to make such a bold statement? You come off as very narrow-minded. I have ADHD, but I wasn't an ill-behaved, disobedient child. I was inattentive. I tried for so long to take control of it, but I just couldn't. I'm not lazy either; I am in very good shape, and help out with whatever I can, whenever I can. People like you are the reason that so many feel stigmatized and never reach out for help. Please get a grip, man.

  • I love english accent : )

  • i heard that the meds for add and adhd can kill the cild if taken to long.

  • I have ADHD and I passed the 11+ and have loads of friends. I cant be bothered to treat it!! :/

  • I won't say i suffer from adhd, because i don't. You choose whether or not some 'condition' will get the better of you

  • I have ADHD and I'm in 7th grade and I have many friends so bull we have less friend

  • @alea59681 thanks I'm in 7th grade and I have ADHD but I get passed it and I have many friends and more boys like me :)

  • Who cares about ADHD. If they are friendly and is great to be around then dont judge them on how they act and if they have a disability or not. And this is coming from a sixth grader who has a friend that has ADHD.

  • @1BONJOVIGIRL i asked my mom and she said yes

  • Get the facts. cchr.org

  • i dont know if i have adhd but i have all those things that she mentioned

  • @maxitimken6 but i dont smoke or take drugs

  • I'll tell you people from experience, with taking prescriptions for 7 years, you can take control of your life WITHOUT medication. I've done it and you can too. I was awarded the Judicial Excellence award when I was in my senior year. If I can do it you can too.

  • @Gothkid15 i applaud you for taking care of the problem without meds. i admire your courage, but some people MUST have medication. i am one of those people. i tried going off of medication a few years ago and my life almost fell apart. so not everyone can take control of their life without medication, but sometimes they can do what you did and not need meds, but other times they must have meds. but congrats on doing so well with your life. i wish i could have gotten an award when i was your age

  • I have ADHD and not ashamed to have it I grew up with this school was very hard for me and my mind was in a different world (day dream) but I still have this with kinda also affects my job lol but people don't know what kind of condition this is but Im gonna try to get back on medication.

  • @anitec19 i have had the same experience as a child growing up i was always in my own world and never listening to teachers. im very mellow though but have lots of trouble paying attention to topics i dislike. I am currently in highschool and just started to notice others sharing this with me. but my friends also have started to bug me about it and it gets annoying. I still like having my own world and my own comments to myself but it gets in the way of reality. i do not take meds either.

  • This information is outdated

  • add people are just different, i am add adhd and bipolar and i have hallucinations, ive noticed the best thing for me personally is when i become frustrated with one thing, i move on to something else, so my hobbies are multiplying rapidly lol. if a kid with add or adhd really wants to learn something they will actually learn it faster and excel really fast.you have to keep them from getting bored thats the problem, once they get bored their minds just shut off like a light switch lol

  • I am 15... and a GIRL with ADHD, i take 20mg medikinet 5 TIMES A DAY (on school days)... and i am proud to say i have ADHD, i see it as an oppertunity to excel and view the world in a different light to others. Stand up be proud of who you are, you're different, unique, you stick out from the crowds... now there are not many who can say that. :P

  • Comment removed

  • ...It also means that from an early age i was ahead of others... Sure having ADHD can be a bad thing, for instance making friends and keeping them or even for us teenagers getting a boyfriend or girl friend who totaly understands us (i'm lucky enough to have found my special someone), along with ADHD i have autism, OCD and a bit of asberges syndrome... but aside from this i have coped... ADHD gives us the chance many would dream of having. ADHD can be a bad thing but also a good thing...

  • They haven't picked up half the stuff which comes with it but it covers the basics... I have ADHD, got diagnosed at the age of 5 (lucky, i know). I'm 15 now and well on my way to being a star student at school ^_^ However, i think this video misses out some of the good things which come with ADHD (many of you out there will say "THERE ARE NONE".. but you're wrong) ADHD means (for me) that i get a great imagination, I can be original and unique and not have to follow the crowd...

  • they make it sound like a hororable disease

  • @jack72143 it is terrible, I Have been dealing since kindergarten, i hate it.

  • @jack72143 not a disease
