  • i was diagnosed ADHD not long ago,i have 35 yrs.when i was younger i was always going straight ahead with the authority,i was never a sheep,alwys with the facility to see beauty and paint about it,its the only ways i have to be myself in this world...thanks for the video!!

  • I myself have ADD and am into music. I can't say anything different than the rest of the comments. Everybody seems to agree with you and now I don't feel so alone.

  • Thanks, this really helped!

  • Comply to society??? No way. The office??? Incredibly boring. If you don't fit in you make your own way. That is what I have found. I work for myself and there are no limits to how creative I can be. The only limits are the ones I put on myself. I also love music and have more than one musical instrument. I don't like being regulated and molded into the societal norm.

    Why be like everyone else? That is boring. Be unique. Be you!

  • Excellent video, you have expressed my views to the letter. Keep it up.

  • you have your view, but I think it is very one sided and could be very harmful and lead people with adhd to feel guilt or believe myths about medical treatment of adhd, not get it and suffer needlessly

  • your right i have felt like what you said all my life.... i have adhd depression and anxiety...i cant believe there are people like me out there...but where? ...where are they? thanks for the upload

  • I can relate to this so much, i desperately need to find somthing im passionate about, and that i can live. work is mundane and repetitive, and my own mind is doing me in lol. Bye the way isnt it left brained people in right brained world?

  • Suffering quite heavily from ADD? Well, before you were diagnosed, what were you struggling with? At least you have something to call this angst, and, you can even get drugs to get you stoned. Now that beats facing reality, by far.

  • you're the man, i too have ADD and these videos give me a deep respect towards you for your bold honesty, cheers :)
