Hey Dr. Dray! Something I really like about your videos and channel in general is your informational, no nonsense approach. As a long time viewer, I prefer the talking head style lectures you give. I find the new editing style and quick cuts to be distracting from all the great things you have to share.

agreeing with the many people who miss your usual way of making content, i love to see you speak move your hands, face expression, one camera angle, is very honest and makes it easy to follow. With this editing i go into fight or flight , and that yes that my cortisol will spike 🤪

Fun story - your cortisol levels are directly tied to your circadian rhythm. I once was starting to have problems sleeping with my job that had no windows/only fluorescent lighting (problem #1 for sleeping). L-Theanine is known that it may help reduce cortisol levels so I decided to try and see if it would help reduce my stress at work. Problem is - your cortisol is supposed to be at its highest mid-morning and I was taking l-theanine right as I would get to work at 8am. It REALLY screwed up my sleep schedule - like by Weds night I wouldn't sleep at all til the weekend. Luckily I am able to get outside more now and use red light and infrared sauna for better sleep.

Honestly, this feedback is PERFECT for neurodivergent people. Especially us autistics tend to think in super binary all-or-nothing ways, where we HAVE to do things perfectly or it's incredibly stressful (to be fair this is also common in ADHD with perfectionist tendencies), so reminding us that baby-steps and minor changes are just as valid, and often more long-term, than just jumping into an entire lifestyle overhaul.

As a coffee-lover, it was hard to reduce consumption, but noticed dropping to one cup a day and no caffeine after 11 helped with energy and sleep. The basics always work, good nutrition, proper hydration, take a walk and stick to a bed time schedule. I also reduced screen time (especially the news) at night.

@soshi-805 22 күн бұрын

Dr. Dray! Love your videos and this is a topic I wanted to hear more about. I did find the editing and visuals on the first third of this video a bit overwhelming and distracting. The stock videos are fine, though you can use them more sparsely (that way you don't need to find as many!) The motions and animations can definitely be dialed back a bit. Don't get me wrong - I appreciate whenever people put effort into the stylistic aspect of their work, and it's awesome to see you experiment and get better as a content creator, so I thought viewers' feedback can be helpful for that! I understand from your point of view, just footage of you talking might seem dry and uninteresting, but I promise you your channel and videos are adored for their no nonsense, unfiltered nature :) Many of us are here to learn, and we don't mind a simple podcast-style lecture - plus, less work for you on the editing!

Really wonderful advice here. It's honestly a breath of fresh air - the focus on adding things to your diet rather than just taking food away, the cautioning against extremes, the parts about doing what you can to increase movement and stick to a schedule for going to bed & getting out of bed rather than stressing over achieving a specific number of steps/hours of sleep, and so on. Very reassuring and refreshing.

It takes a combination of jealousy and distain to be a hater as well and there's no evidence of that in the comment section! But I will say this, this is just one more reason why non-brown and non-beige people need to stop trying to use African-American vernacular English (AAVE). Because they will almost always either incorrectly use the word, overuse the word or BOTH. So please "Brad" just give it a rest!

Thank you for the informative (and timely, for me) content. I started tamoxifen in April and lasted about 3 weeks before it completely destroyed my sanity: constant hot flashes, night sweats and sleeplessness. Before this I could sleep a solid 7 hours. I always prioritized sleep because of a maternal history of Alzheimer's, so I know the importance of it. But I'm 51 and have to take tamoxifen (and later aromatase inhibitors) for the next 5 years and I don't know what to do because the pills are destroying me -- I could only sleep about 2 hours at a time, constantly waking up and taking forever to go to sleep again. I've tried melatonin and natural herbal pills but nothing works. I know I should give the pill a few months to get used to, but those 3 weeks of insomnia were brutal and I worried about my brain health. :(

You are what you eat. Your diet impacts your health. Lower stress, reduce obesity, get enough sleep and more exercise are key to a healthy life. Obesity in children and adults is rising across the world. Fast food and sugary drinks including fruit juices are contributing to the problem of poor health and obesity. Eat a healthy plant based diet and exercise regularly. Reduce or ELIMINATE cows milk, eggs, cheese and meat. Eat more salad greens, beans, fruit and vegetables. Eliminate fast food, snacks like cookies, cakes, chips, and sugary drinks and juices. Every adult and child should own a bicycle and ride it regularly. Regular exercise will help you sleep better. Yoga is a great stress reducer. Obesity is all too common today. Get off the couch. Get off the phone, ipad or video game. A variety of stretching and other exercises help with increased mobility. Ride to work, ride to school, ride for fun. Every city should be a bicycle city. Speak up for bicycles in your community

@drdray I'm always curious when these conversations come up, do they still apply to people with ADHD in the same way? I don't find caffeine stimulating, i don't even find my prescription stimulants stimulating 😂 i can and have fall back asleep not long after taking them and drinking a bucket of caffeine. I also frequently find that the longer i let myself sleep (constantly tired and can sleep for 10-15 hours at the weekend without even waking up to go to the toilet) but i usually feel terrible after. When i only sleep 4 hours which often is the case during the week, i initially feel terrible when i wake up but then seem to be more alert during the day? Its confusing. I know not having a regular pattern is bad but i can't seem to implement one at all, my body clock always seems to be all over the place. I have read that ADHD affects sleep and also causes you to be more drawn to stimulant's (caffeine, nicotine etc) because they work differently for us than most people and I'm never sure if that means traditional advice will be as beneficial 🤷🏼‍♀️
