🚀 Transform your Morning Routine with ADHD: https://geni.us/adhd-mornings Undiagnosed and untreated ADHD can have massive consequences on our entire lives. Most parents underestimate the risks and opt out of treatments due to the stigma surrounding ADHD, therapy, and medication. They think they are doing something good for their children and being protective but it might be just the opposite. This video presents the possible outcomes of untreated (and even treated) ADHD for children, teens, adults and beyond. It discusses the comorbidities with both mental health and physical conditions, the financial burdens, addiction struggle, problems with the law, relationship issues, divorce, cheating, unwanted pregnancies, and everything in between. Because ADHD is much more than attention deficit and hyperactivity. It's a life-altering disorder and it needs to be taken seriously. 📚 SOURCES (more than my bachelor thesis) 📚 https://geni.us/24TDlcM ----------------------------------------------------------------- 👋🏻 Hi, I'm Antonia - an ADHD Coach with 4+ Years of Experience 👋🏻 I help ADHDers level up their confidence and productivity - the ADHD-friendly way. ✅ Book a 1-on-1 Coaching Session: https://antoniatheuniverse.com/coaching ✅ Join my FREE Newsletter for ADHD Hacks & Advice: https://antoniatheuniverse.com ☕ Buy me a coffee ☕ On Ko-Fi (no login needed): https://ko-fi.com/antoniasuniverse Or use the "Thanks" button below my videos!

This was after YEARS of therapy (and all of the self tests in the world!). My diagnosis has brought up questions, frustration, doubt, but most importantly, a new level of self compassion and understanding. I'm here to share knowledge, resources, and products that empower other neurodivergents (and their loved ones) to live freely and creatively. I'm not a doctor so please speak with your healthcare providers before implementing any recommendations I make on my channel. Women are under-diagnosed due to lack of research. Please share any videos that are helpful to you so we can spread awareness and acceptance.

This lecture is based on Dr. Barkley's recent book, Taking Charge of Adult ADHD (2021; New York, Guilford Publications). ADHD is now recognized as a relatively common mental disorder of teens and adults, affecting 4-5 percent of the adult population and accounting for an increasing number of referrals mental health and family practices in this country. The disorder has a pervasive impact on most major domains of daily life activities, including occupational, educational, and social functioning and health-related behavior. It is therefore imperative that mental health, medical, and educational professionals have as much up-to-date knowledge of this adult disorder and its treatment as possible. This presentation will provide current information on the nature, comorbid disorders, adaptive impairments, and underlying nature of ADHD as it occurs in adults. Dr. Barkley will provide guidance on the diagnosis of ADHD and the need for clinical judgment beyond just employing a DSM-5 algorithm. He will also describe the most effective treatment components focusing particularly on counseling, medication, cognitive-behavioral therapy for executive function deficits, and Adult ADHD Coaching, as well as the need for educational and workplace accommodations. This presentation is 1.5 hours in length. Subscribe Now

A mask can be like a façade or an optical illusion that looks flawless at a certain angle but on a different angle or perspective, it looks different and the illusion breaks down. Essentially, the mask implies something that doesn’t really exist. Instead behind the mask is a hidden inner experience. The distinction between the person and the mask is it is what is underneath that is the most important thing and this experience needs to be validated.

If you're autistic or think you or someone you love might be on the autism spectrum, this channel is for you! I'm Paul Micallef, and I discovered my own autism at age 30. Yes, I know, I don't look autistic. That's exactly why I started this channel in the first place because if I didn't show you, you would never know. Autism affects many (if not all!) aspects of our lives, so on this channel, I want to show you what Autism looks like in real people and give you some insight into what's happening for us on the inside. We'll break down myths and misconceptions, discuss how to embrace autism and live well, and share what it's like to be an autistic person. Join me as I share what I've found along my journey, so you don't have to learn it the hard way. Make sure to subscribe so you won’t miss my new video every Friday and some bonus content thrown in mid-week too. ➡️️ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-FpBZR7DbpvNj5UrFN8qUA?sub_confirmation=1 👋Connect with me: ➡️️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/aspergersfromtheinside ➡️️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/autismfromtheinside.com.au ➡️️ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AspieFromInside ➡️️ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/autismfrominside.bsky.social ➡️️ Written Blog: https://www.autismfromtheinside.com.au/blog ➡️️ Email: aspergersfromtheinside@gmail.com Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy my channel!

This short video addresses one of the most important topics in coming to terms with and seeking treatment for ADHD - ownership of the disorder. It is not broken down into time stamps because the topics build each other rather than being discrete ideas unconnected to the prior ones in the video. I hope you find this useful.
