I have never felt so many things accurately describe myself in one diagnosis.

“Non judgmental awareness” and a Day Dream Journal. Love the idea but hate writing so many a day dream sketch book. So grateful for this information.

I’m 100% sure I had this in my childhood. Now I feel like everything has just been exasperated. Poor routine, sleeps horribly, social awkwardness, withdrawal, no accomplishment. But I am smart in terms of processes because as you said daydreaming of situations allows me to see how something should be done. But my ability to start and finish has been my demise 🙁

Fantastic presentation. Look forward to what research finds in the coming years

Unfortunately with my ADHD there's no way i can sit through this entirely

😂 I made it to 1 minute on 1.5 speed before giving up and googling. I did not make it through the whole article. But this reply has taken about 5/10 minutes to write. More time well spent 👍. Now to not get on with the other five thousand things I need to do today. Hmm what to watch first 😅

@Hbutcyj Ай бұрын

Felt the need to reply again. Please know I’m not making light of your struggles ❤

Watched 1.5 speed. I am lucky that learning sparks my interest.

Put ear buds in and listen while doing something else. I'm listening while painting 2 rooms in my house.

@lynns3652 Ай бұрын

In line with the earlier reply, might I suggest passively listening while going about your daily routine? While I miss out on the visuals I've found it easier to just play the vid as background audio when driving.

Webinar starts at 3:14. I will continue from there tomorrow (or the next time, or in 8 months), hopefully. I know those long introductions are primarily aimed at parents and health care professionals , but it makes it really difficult to stay focused.

I’m 20 minutes in and I want to know how I can sign up to be apart of studies that are done. I have so much to say but I’ll sum it up… this information is amazing so far and I’m eager to learn more..

AD/HDers are likely on the earlier side for this one 🤣🥳

This whole CDS thing sounds frightening close, but I really am not a fan of overinterpreting things. It´s probably just my brain searching reasons again.

Wow…daydreaming IS NOT a disorder or a mental health condition. Have a goal! Imagination is key to a successful life. If you’re a parent worried about your child, there are some shocking truths you need to know before just blindly believing this information.

If you literally forget to eat and drink because of it, yeah. It can be.
