As an AuDHD person, the college dropout story is relatable to me, except for the YouTube career success. I grew up in a madhouse during my traumatic childhood, and going to college free from my backwards, overprotective, overly strict parents was essentially like falling off a cliff. I was already burnt out during my last year of high school, and I was too excited with the freedom and ended up wasting time playing video games and skipping classes regularly because I had little energy to function as an adult. I still struggle with burnout to this day due to being an overworked IT contractor for years.

    The ADHD content creation seems extremely on brand. An overwhelming amount of famous creators have ADHD because the chaos, creativity, and rapidly changing pace plays very well into the symptoms of the disorder. Same with other chaotic professions.

    Getting an ADHD diagnosis and the medication truely is as absurd as they depict it in the video. Literally night and day. Go from not being able to work linearly to suddenly being able to get all your shit done.

    I find it doesn't work as well when I don't get enough sleep and it's not perfect. But man, it's like I was living life on hard mode. And it explains my (now former) Coffee addiction.

    I need to work on getting enough sleep and likely seeking out a therapist for monthly sessions.

    One thing to point out, she mentioned it briefly how it's so much harder, and far less studied for women. Yeah, my friends tell me the same thing. Got my diagnosis in less than a month total, and for many of them it took significantly longer.

      Therapeutic doses of stimulants make ADHD individuals want to sleep more if they are fatigued or sleep deprived due to how dopamine pathways differ between nuerotyoical people and adhd individuals. That’s also the same experience I’ve had, along with the side effects being infinitely more pronounced if I don’t sleep, when usually they don’t show up at all.
