Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are talking about a very personal topic, dealing with ADHD as an adult. They discuss three areas of ADHD: inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity... and they go on tangents and lose their train of thought because they have ADHD.

I have not just lived almost 25 years to only now confirm that I have ADHD and there’s a reason why I’m this way 😳🫠.

The filling in the gaps thing led my Therapist to believe I didn't have adhd because obviously I wasn't spacing out. I tried to explain it to him but he didn't really believe me. I was also not able to tell him that I go instantly into hyperfocus during therapy sessions. And the 'I want to do things but I can't and I don't know why, my body just nopes out and I can't do anything' wasn't enough either. God I am so happy I got a second opinion. I had my therapist for 6 years and he was great with depression and he was the reason I had enough self-esteem to go against his opinion, so technically he did everything right. But this killed so much trust I never went back to him. My Psychiatrist looked at two questionnaires and my elemtary school reports and didn't even think twice about a diagnosis. The meds literally saved my life because I was falling back into exhaustion depressions every 3-6 months and they tone down my anxiety and my OCD. I can be normal in your comments... I swear... some day I will be a very normal commenter in your comments. Sorry about these random essays... Btw. just FYI big adhd job pool: STEM STEM jobs are usually highly creative and deal a lot with problem solving. My personal instant hyperfocus is when I write code (I am not working as a programmer because I would probably just... die of exhaustion because I can't stop working until the code is working) If you work in MINT there is a very high chance that most of your colleagues are either autistic, have adhd or are both. Thank you for this wonderful video <3 I loved the ADHD Combocounter :D

I see you. I was diagnosed in 2022 at the age of 37. It's a bittersweet thing. All those things that you thought were "moral failings" - aren't. But there's a part of you that wants to know why no one noticed so you could have been diagnosed earlier and struggled less.
