Bs. Its a huge video of yapping you can't skip through and doesn't even offer a link to a PAID PRODUCT. Don't waste your time, I just let it run in the background after I realized it was preying on insecurities in an attempt to get us to buy a product. Very childlike. Sad.

Unsubscribing to this guy. Lost my trust. "In a few minutes I will tell you how..." Half an hour later still going on about he will tell you what he discovered that changed everything. Super insulting and disrespectful to ADHDers that he claims to understand. Focus Revolution is his product. Best I can tell it's an expensive doctored up version of body doubling which you can get for about $7/month at Focusmate. Thought I'd save others time by coming here to share what his push of a button life changing thing is that "he will reveal in the next few minutes ". Smh

😢 caught me red handed.

Ahahahaha!!! I totally was!!!! 😂😂

Who are you to call me out like that 😂

You got me 😂

😂😂

Damn so true.

I read this comment before the video itself started, so I decided to pinpoint the specific moment, where I would think that, because I know that behaviour as well. Long story short, that thought came up literally two seconds before he said it.. jesus..

@@D4rkk1ll4 🤣🤝

Wow, me too

wow was it at 1:00? same here хD

Fuck yeah brother glad you're cancer free 👍

Wow, how amazing. That’s great news. Sadly the drop off from methylphenidate both lisdexamphetamine exacerbates my depression I daren’t take them.

🎉

🎉🎉🎉🎉

I don't know if it is worth taking medicines that can have collateral effects...

Same.

I know right I was like who told him that 😂

Don't have any relationships to be painful 😢

Yeah but actually doing the things even things you enjoy is so so difficult that I have to continually push myself which still happens at the last minute as I get sidetracked with something else like scrolling and talking about my ADHD frustrations and going to bed late

@@deantalksfootball 1. Put down your phone and *just do* what you need to, right now. Just do it. Stop reading this until it’s done, then return. -- 2. Take this guy’s video, add it to your favorites or a playlist. Watch it whenever you feel frustrated or when you know you’re slipping. 3. Start with the small things. You know the trash is full, the dishes need to be done, your bed needs to be made, or whatever. Just get up and do it. Just do it. You’ll probably get a real nice hit and you’ll look for other small things to take care of to keep that rush going. Keep “just do it”-ing the small things each and every day and, before long, the bigger things will become easier to approach. This isn’t something that happens overnight. You just need to decide “I’m going to do this”. Do whatever it takes to help - make a daily checklist, set a reminder on your phone. Just *do it*. We have a superpower, dude. Trust me - you won’t believe what you can accomplish in life once you’ve broken your cycle, and neither will everyone else around you. They’ll be blown away by your drive.

+greghoyt4061 Honestly, I go back and forth so much from planning and non-planning. Like I'll plan things out which actually makes my life easier to some level. Example: I literally try my best *not* to grocery shop on a whim anymore unless absolutely Necessary. I will literally to each grocery store's website to compare prices to see which one is more affordable for specific products I may need, I will literally write down what I'm going to buy from each store. I go to about 3-4, occasionally 5 diff. grocery stores solely for affordability purpose. There is a huge chance I've had undiagnosed ADHD my whole life for more than 1 reason. 1.) I was tested for both ADD/ADHD when I was 7 yrs. old 2.) A lot of my childhood behaviors have transferred into my adulthood, 3.) Strong coffee literally puts me to sleep. Also, idk if this is part of ADHD or not, but I'm horrible w/phone calls and follow-ups-the reason I say I'm horrible w/phone calls is cuz I kept telling myself I'd follow up w/my doctor to get retested for it & it's already been a week and I still haven't done it. I'm someone who doesn't take action because for the longest time ever, I've allowed my own emotions to take over. I think rather than taking my challenges/weaknesses as a chance to turn into strengths-I allow my hypersensitive emotional state to take over & dwell on it. I try not to dwell on things, but sadly it happens b/c that's how my mind is until it gets angry angry depending on the situation. I've noticed now that whenever I'm upset or even annoyed in the slightest, I'll do *anything* to do my best to improve it. But there are times when I feel so exhausted by diff. things that I literally have 0 energy to do anything esp. when my mind is too focused on multiple things at 1 time. Also, I don't want to say that my mind is haywire 24/7, but it's def. haywire a lot more often than it should be. I know exactly what my passions are & would love to pursue them, but when others put me down, I end up putting myself down for it, but I'm gonna start learning how to take action mostly b/c I'm fed up w/myself and prob. with others in my life and earlier on to some level treating me like crap or downplaying my dreams rather than allowing me to do my own thing & pursue them-sorry for the lengthy-ness.

Excellent comment. To turn that corner, from avoidance-procrastination, disorganization, and chaos, to getting addicted to actual _accomplishment_ of those tasks that move your life forward. There is a lot of latent power in the ADD style, but one has to _learn_ to seek those "greater and more positive dopamine hits". The brain has to get that, somehow -- the "should do" needs to somehow become more compelling than the "want to do". And it has to become more _naturally_ compelling, otherwise one is caught forever in a shame loop.

Agree with this. Too many diagnosed people fall into excuses. It’s toxic. Even just having a very detailed daily calendar in your phone will solve a heap of issues.

Could you elaborate more? Sometimes I felt like it’s a curse but sometimes I felt like it’s a gift. I know I shouldn’t but a lot of times I just tell myself I can’t do anything and I feel depressed

@@user-nz1rt1xx6l That is why we should not take them everyday as adults. Only when required. And once you have them at home...you learn when you need them..when you're better off without.

U guys are corrupted 2

🫡

Its because police dispatcher job is practical moving job... Adhd helps in that kind of activities where we have work in motion ... Its sucks in reading writing speaking listening while you study

Yes! And add to that any other kinds of trauma to our already different brain, and it can seem impossible to move. Like we have a ball and chain around our feet, meaning we can't move towards those long-term goals very fast, and are also being distracted by little things at the same time. We might have a few days of motivation and hope , but when things don't happen fast enough, it seems impossible to bring that motivation back.Then the cycle of negative self talk and berating continues, causing a deepening of anxiety and/or depression.

Not to mention that we live in an achievement society that pushes everyone to go further, climb higher and get more constantly which leads to burnout, the prerequisite to depression.

Gosh 😢

​@@JtothePrezexactly. I have depression and anxiety because of trauma. I had adhd before trauma but It became worser, more impulsiveness, masking hyperactivity through calmness

My path seems to be the path of a fruit fly... I respond to the stimuli around me and hover there... until I see a new banana. 😉 Then I hover there... until I see a beautiful open container of raspberries. Then... I see a fluffy delightfully-scented peach. This is literally how I live my life... from whim to whim.

It means Mindfulness. Be aware and focus on the present task.

Pitch to what?

I understand what u mean. Hes probably on Adderall

Absolutely. So irritated he was basically leading us by our insecurities to his Focus Revolution product. On top of that it's so expensive compared to Focusmate that is pennies per day.

Hey, me too! 😅 funny isn’t it?

Financial stress yes very. But married to I think an OCD sufferer. I’m going back to school late in life, THATS pressure. The way I’m financing our life give me guilt (not illegal or immoral means) -and I also work 30 hrs a week as a waiter in a nice restaurant, but it’s still not enough because of our overhead. I must now coming to terms with the fact that my brain is different than most others and this is largely why every opportunity and relationship I’ve had has been lost or destroyed. I don’t even know what Im living for anymore. I’m toward the end stretch of my life. It’s so depressing to look back and see how many many things could have been better had my parents (one of them has severe cluster of Asperger’s, anxiety, depression, all untreated for life) - had my parents, who are both career teachers, helped me cope with adhd, anxiety, spectrum social disorders. I’m just staying alive to hopefully someday take my wife on a vacation and help my kids get through life. Damn, and then the Supreme Court immunity ruling. And trump, and the religious right, and corruption.. it’s all bad. Makes me want to take up smoking again.

Similar situation here. My child and I both have ADD.

I'm sorry to hear that man

I sincerely hope things will improve for you! ✨💖

Good time to focus on spirituality, if it at all appeals

nah, just a few deliciously crafted food things and your inspiration might come back! like, a colourful breakfast, a finally well-made marinaded yet crispy chicken something, and some rich flavors like sunflower seeds, olive oil and a white pepper cheese cream.. yeeea, i'm hungry. but hey, i do have some blueberries for breakfast tomorrow! i just need a little cinnamon, honey and some of this neutral tasting thick white thing i forgot the name of, it's like yoghurt though. anyhow, food can be an inspiration, and i bet it will be so, even for the older people which have seen everything😊

Please see a therapist and seek for professional help

Just did the same thing. 😂

Nope reading comments while video is still playing 😂

Oh my God this is my life story at 58 brought up to be a nice woman helpful to everyone always coming up with answers for everyone and getting made fun of on the job overworking and yes, getting picked out the minute. Something is wrong instead of recognized for all that I do above and beyond everyone else you have my exact story. And yes, easy pray for people who like to pick on people and make fun of what the heck?

Yes

Why is that?,

Yes! This is so similar to my life as well! I just wish I could somehow run my own company so I don't have to answer to anyone but myself. But running it myself is too burdensome. I am a fixer and I am good at reconditioning and servicing tools and some electronic repair, but it's always a little knowledge over many different things, which makes it hard to get a jon position for. I also hate to market myself and I'm too shy and too nice to demand a decent payment for my work...

Do what you paid hge rest do at home as your own salary

💯 same and feeling like I’m failing at life. I never thought about it in the sense of being too overstimulated. Just thought my meds wore off too soon. Thanks!

If you can somehow set one or two nights a week to dedicate an evening or an hour to a task or goal, then you can build some level of momentum. It'll be hard, with more than a few times you'll fall on your face, but I've been able to get some benefit from trying that. Less the running a project and more regularly volunteering in various community groups to feel more engaged.

@@vanessacee4154 since there is a stimulant shortage. I was forced off my meds. Surprisingly I can sleep better now and I'm less irritable than I was on the vyvanse. But the problem is I get tired more easily now.

That aspect of ADHD was definitely not addressed in this particular video, unfortunately.

Dude I feel you! I need to revise for my law exams and I WANT to give it my all, my best, my time but after a days work I'm shattered. Not necessarily physically but mentally. On top of that, I need to stick to my physio and mediation but they've become chores when they're meant to be helping me. The mental exhaustion drives me to "just have a drink" in the evening. Which, I'm good at controlling (usually because I scare myself of the worst if I feel that I'm relying on it too much) BUT... the alcohol doesn't solve the problem, it just helps me FORGET about things.Which in turn.... means that I can RELAX but ONLY because I've NUMBED my thoughts! Yes it's not healthy, but this really highlights what we ADHD'ers need.... to SILENCE the MILLIONS of THOUGHTS that were either CONSCIOUSLY or SUBCONSCIOUSLY aware of Xx

The music is just right ☮️

It's very fitting

No music or editing with those lil vids within the vid would be the best. Unnecessary imho. Only the content/advice counts. Thank you for that!

Musik klappt perfekt 💯

for me it's a bit distracting and melancholic, but the content was interesting so I was able to tune it out :)

Maybe becoming a psychologist would be good for you

I would not believe you until i hear the other side of the story

❤‍🔥

I agree. And concur.

i would have loved to have been a hairdresser but my mother talked me out of it. I still think of it. I'm too old now. (54)

@@SusanaXpeace2uThat’s my story too!! You should do it! I’m retired but I wish I would’ve done it ten years ago!

​@@SusanaXpeace2u you're not too old to get involved in something new......you just willing to take the first step

Wait till you do the webinar. Uptime snake oil

I liked it until he started talking about a link to some miracle way to focus

😂 me too!!! Or travel...I'm like a bird in a cage. I'm dying right now living in the same house for 4.5 years. My husband and I bought our first house and I have to stick it out for the kids because we have a GREAT neighborhood and location. Safe and friendly, but boring. My son was 7 mo when we moved here and my daughter was 5 (she had already been through 5 moves).

@a1cwilette, that many moves for a child is not good, very unstable. You’re going to figure out how to find more variety without moving houses.

Camping. Rick climbing. Hiking. Rehab thrift store furniture. Etc​@@a1cwillette

​@@BarbaraM-lv7pe I loved it as a kid. My dad was military.

Good luck man.

Why did this make me laugh. I'm so sorry 😂

Same!

Wondering what others think about why they drink? For me, before I was on ADHD meds, it felt like by the end of the day I couldn't turn off work thoughts and/or couldn't think straight. Something I need to take an updated look at.

@@liz6034 thanks for the feedback liz....i am not on meds......but it seems something bad always happens when i drink.....i have cut down a lot.

​@@liz6034as the hyper type, I was always looking to calm down as there's no down time with ADHD.

Negative self-talk combined with high opinion of others is such a handicap. I get reminded of it constantly but I can't break free from it. For example whenever I see a person who is confident about what they are saying, I tend to believe them and I don't voice my disagreements. I think, surely someone that confident can't be wrong about this? And yet they commonly are.

We need to connect

Have you had fun solving physics numericals or mathematical problems that you understood?

What’s a split? I think that’s what is happening to me?

thank you for the commenting that! I was doing something else as I was watching and then came back only to see the view from Marjan and being confused because Split was not mentioned anywhere in the bio!

Congrats. My gf has adhd in believe I might have in a a more controlled form. I'm a electrician and when I get home I don't have energy to clean either but if I do a little bit at a time I'm good . Now if a take a few shots I'm definitely cleaning the whole house and playing music😂. You have ig?
