I grew up in the 60s and 70s when ADHD wasn't known, teachers used corporal punishment, shame and humiliation to mitigate my behaviors and learning difficulties. I am glad to hear this man discuss ADHD openly and know the world will be a better place for people with this. I was a professional firefighter paramedic for 30 years, going on high stress-SHTF calls was my Adderall.

I have adhd and am really in trouble
ADHD doesn't affect my driving because I always find a slow careful driver and position my car behind them. :-)
Sounds like he is really angry towards ADHD! He probably has untreated ADHD himself! THEY DISORDER RETARDED What a horrible person to use langauge like this! The mental health world needs to stop treating the mind & body as two separate entities and see that ADHD is from a disregulated nervous system from an attachment injury in childhood passed on from attachment injury in parents and so on......stop blaming the child adult for having ADHD The nervous system can heal and the brain is part of the nervous system! Wake up psychiatric world !!!
Can you develop add or ADHD as a teenager or an adult?
Wow, I got three out of three. Senior, hoard crafts and ADHD.
15:20 I relate to the docs twin brother. I actually miraculously survived getting tossed out of a rolling car
👏👏👏
if i had a nickel for the amount of times I've said to myself "makes sense.... yep. that too. mhmm" while listening to Dr. Barkleys presentations, id have a S**tload of nickels.
El primero después de muchos años de búsqueda de explicaciones, que dice lo preciso. Gracias Dr.
I was raised in an Asian home so I think he's wrong about the family influence. Just sayin'
This video needs to be seen by all the parents that do not agree to treating their children. In my experience they are not informed and often consider themselves to be "better" or "smarter" than those that do. "I am not putting my child on drugs!!" In fact they are irresponsible and creating harm by refusing to help their children have better lives. Truly heart breaking.
Excellent video!
So no hope in developing non verbal working memory without the ability to visualize? Need to revise in the light of new recognition of aphantasia Thankfully I know I have total aphantasia and don’t feel like crap hearing that I don’t have any of the abilities to recall dinner last night with images, senses, or recall of the conversation with the waiter. Which came first the chicken or the egg. Does aphantasia contribute to ADHD or ADHD contribute to Aphantasia? Because it’s one of the first abilities in the scaffold, it must be Aphantasia or some injury to that area of the brain that contributes to ADHD. Perhaps that’s why we don’t all present with ADHD in the same way. And I suppose let’s consider brain and emotional and prenatal trauma. I have no answers only questions. All that said I appreciate dr Russel’s lectures very much.
So much to process here. Amazing.
He speaks and my adhd listens. 🔥🔥🔥
Definitely Top down behaviors-obsessively thinking about things that bother me all day, I always say it can reset once i go to sleep, trying to control my anger and impulsivity so such a degree and eventually I blurt things out or react, if something stresses me, I can literally see a horror movie in my imagination.
I always felt if my husband was not around, I'd be in social housing. This explains my lifelong struggle. Wish my parent didn't label me as amounting to nothing instead of having an impairment.
Does anyone know of there's a link between really premature birth and ADHD?
I started with a "Thank You" for the acknolwdemennt of my crippling issue. But, you nailed it. Admit, you are a bit cunt, lol, or pick your own cuss word. I have had the horror to serve and I am proud to call you out, so to speak. I dare you to have a conversation with me. Methylphenidate saved my life. Without it, I would continue to gravitate towards aggression and violence. Now, I am a productive member of society. Gosh. Isn't it wonderful when the world offers you a magic pill rest makes the world stop hating Very Single Fucking thing about you. On a side note, I also have a dose of that good oll' OCD. I will mail you a dollar if you can list just 20 ghramerixal errors in raising message. The problem with ADAD people is that we are often smarter than you and giggle while you present your compromises studies. Good luck though.
Would have been nice if these kinds if vids had been available as a kid. I was diagnosed very early in life, unfortunatly my father rejected the diagnosis and just thought I was lazy and tried to fix it with beatings and screaming
Dr. Russell Barkley is an absolute ADHD treasure. He is consistently on the frontline of ADHD research, fighting to spread awareness of the facts. It's also unreal, how the descriptions he lays out correlate with me like 90%. It's like he is describing, specifically ME, up there. It is effing BONKERS. Frankly, it's almost disturbing, just how much can be described about a person without even knowing them. 😬
Oh boy! I identify with the driving. From Baltimore to Ocala, Fla is like the Indy 500. Time to get tested.
My poor dad aged rapidly when I was learning to drive and in the first year after getting my license. I have inattentive adhd….I would daydream a bit while driving…he was in the passenger seat. He was like: “brake! Brake! Brake”.
"ADHD IN ADULTS LEADS TO EARLIER PARENTHOOD" me a virgin at 25
Our children’s education immediately impacts Canadas future economy. Canada complains about lack of production from the work force this is a direct correlation.
I was diagnosed at 57 and have tried every type of medication available and I can't use any of them. The non-stimulants do not work. The stimulants give me so much anxiety at very small doses I can't function. The last one I tried was Foquest and it seemed to work with manageable anxiety but gave me such dry eye I couldn't function. It's taken me several years to try all of these since I stayed on all of them a considerable amount of time. Im also under the care of a psychiatrist.
I always caught myself saying I won't make it until I'm 40 if I keep suffering from this Mental Illness but I kept forgetting to realize it was my ADHD that I was diagnosed with years ago that's been creeping into my adulthood which definitely got me into addiction and self-medication I am now free of that life but this life is more miserable and it's not about sobriety it's about ADHD untreated but yes some people do use drugs to self-medicate traumas or certain other core issues it's when you get clean and you realize there is no emotional core issue, that's usually when it's ADHD that you're forgetting to acknowledge due to your ADHD and the fact that it's hard or nearly impossible to get treated for ADHD when you are a recovering addict even if your drug of choice had nothing to do with being an upper, I was an opiate addict and I did not get into offers because upper slowing me down and make me Focus as weird as that sounds, that's why I never got into cocaine or anything like that
I have ADHD. Yet I have excellent credit and a perfect driving record ( for 20 years since age 26 ). I like driving. It puts me into hyperfocus so that my attention is always on the road and hitting the perfect cornering apex.
The end of the video where it says the solutions is what I already do, not knowing that I probably have this problem. Notes all over the place, 15 minute pomodoros (25 is really long for me) with a 5 minute break, Alexa reminding me of things... things like that. And I like to plan, but when I have everything planned it's like I've already done it, and I go back to planning something else. Thank you for sharing the video.
I have just found out about Dr. Russell Barkley and am binge watching these videos now and it's fucking destroying me. Right now, while listening, I have literally 3 tabs open searching for professional psychological treatment facilities in germany after completely giving up on treatment 15 years ago (almost 30 years old now) because I was simply filled with the maximum dosage of adhd medication without any further treatment and losing all trust towards medical professionals as a result. This is giving me hope, this is rekindling a fire long extinguished that I could get better and do well in life if only proper treatment were to be applied to it. Thank you so much.
Keep posting
This man describes remarkably well every single problem that I encountered in my life. The worst about this disease is that since it's my daily reality since I can think, that this is normal. And that every failure is rooted in me being lazy and dumb. I am not absolving myself from anything. I could have researched this way more intensely and way earlier to find a solution. But I deluded myself into believing that this is how it is and I just have to try harder. But all I did with that is just avoiding the necessary steps for years. Again the worst thing about this sickness is your own inability to see it as such.
I can tell ay firsthand with cannabis, it's because it stops/ lessens the internal chatter, turns it down in a hurry. It's no solution, naturally .... but when it NEVER stops, any reprieve is welcomed.
His 30% rule made me very happy at 1am. I'm 28 now but I'm at the stage of my life where I should have been at 20. Turns out I'm only 19,6 in ADHD years. Today I'm gonna finish my thesis. Wish me luck, stranger!
I am sure that industry after industry is built around leeching off ADHD patients. From Instagram to the snack industry, to Chinese garbage vendors that sell you cheap trinkets you never needed.
I thought add was no more only adhd?
Idk but I cried watching this video
I love this doctor. We are blessed that he understands us so well.
En français svp
As an adult living with the (life-crushing) consequences of long-term incompetently treated ADHD- parents please, please listen to everything this doc says (in this video and other videos by him). His work in ADHD research is extraordinary. Trust me, especially if you don't know first hand what living with ADHD is like. This is the road map your kids need and deserve. Listen and then follow through- I wish someone had done it for me when I was young. I'm trying to do it for myself now- but there's a lot of fall out and so much has been lost over the years. If UA-cam hadn't recommended Dr. Barkley and his work- all might be lost, but I'm finally moving forward. Everything your kids hope to achieve and to become- the foundation they need to build a future, their potential and right to freedom and happiness depend on it. They don't have a chance without this type of informed and compassionate treatment. Not one chance. Listen and follow through- it's the most supportive and loving thing a parent can do for a kid with ADHD.
This answers a lot more of my questions than I like
I relate to all of this and can’t get a drop of help because everything requires an autism diagnosis. Aba, social skills, special sports, everything… even with other diagnosis that children with autism have along with the adhd still isn’t enough. Huge overpopulated state and not an ounce of support.
How can a parent with adhd become a good parent of his children with adhd ? How the shepard rule applies to somebody with adhd ? Is there hope ? All the educational strategies seem to be made for neurotypical parents that don't experience disruption in all 7 executive functions . In my personal experience , for certain aspects , adhd on your children might trigger stress and frustration on the parent .
I’d love to meet this man!
Super c est la vidéo de la providence. Je « tente » de désencombrer avant de vendre la maison et c est comme un boomerang qui me renvoie à mes trop nombreux centres d’interêt, trop de sentimentalisme, trop de livres etc .. je vais écouter votre vidéo en boucle, c’est déculpabilisant . Merci ! Signé une tda auto-diagnostiquée
Am 53 with ADHD, still waiting my diagnosus and treatment. French and living in Spain, very slow here. I love driving, drive for 10 years in England and 10 years in Spain. I was very focused when driving because I love it!!!
I must fall into the small percentage of people with ADHD that didn't get into crime, drugs, and alcohol or something lol
