ADD And The Female Brain - The Answers!
Over 17 million people in the United States have ADD. It is the most common learning and behavioral problem in children and one of the most common problems in adults, leading to job failures, relationship breakups, loneliness, drug abuse, and a tremendous sense of underachievement.
The hallmark symptoms of ADD are:
short attention span
distractibility
disorganization
restlessness
procrastination
impulse control
ADD is commonly thought of as a disorder of hyperactive, behaviorally troubled boys. Yet, it afflicts many girls who are often overlooked because they tend not to be as hyperactive and have fewer behavior problems.
In fact, although females have ADD in high numbers, males are diagnosed three to four times more than females. Missing ADD in females can have devastating lifelong effects on their health, mood, relationships, career, and finances.
Girls with ADD suffer more than 7 times the risk for both antisocial and mood disorders, three times the risk for addictive disorders, and twice the risk for anxiety disorders than those who do not have ADD. Additionally, they have a higher risk for eating disorders, such as bulimia and obesity.
But there’s good news-you are NOT stuck with the brain you have!
In this week’s short video, Dr. Daniel Amen and his wife Tana Amen talk about ADD and how it differs in males and females. They’ll also share practical tips that you can implement in your life right now.
Here are just a few of the helpful topics they cover in this information-packed video:
Why a traumatic brain injury can impact a woman&rquo;s IQ more than a man’s
The symptoms to pay attention to in yourself or a female loved one
How ADD can affect your relationships
What NOT to say to the female in your life with ADD
Which supplement has been shown to be very helpful for those with ADD
How what you choose for breakfast can help or hurt your ADD

Dr. Amen has helped thousands of people with his Healing ADD program, and he can help you, too. With targeted treatment, you can change your brain and change your life.
ADD is what the comments section is for!!!!!
It gives us something to do while where listening ; )
wow feeling called out there lmaooo
So funny watching her cut him off and the end of his thoughts! I struggle with that all the time, I can’t hold my thought in any longer.
When discussing things with my husband we will often have to write something down during the middle of one of us speaking. We started doing this to avoid cutting each other off because it happens a lot. We will forget what we wanted to bring up if we don’t write it down. We both have untreated ADD. It’s gotten so out of control that I’m going back to my old doctor to get some help.
"often easily distracted during everyday routines "
me: *flicking through videos while I'm supposed to be working* how did I get here ? why do I relate so hard ?
Blink Wink literally same right now
HAHA YES
Me too! I'm working and then I get a text so I read it. Now I'm CZcams or checking my bank account. Playing Words with Friends lol finally back to work 😂
I'm 26, female and convinced I have ADD. The last two decades have been filled with not living up to my potential, addiction, intense and traumatizing relationships, occupational issues, lack of organization, distractibility, unable to finish anything at all. My symptoms have got worse since I've moved to the city and my life is about to take a bad turn once again. I'm seeing a doctor next week and determined to get a diagnosis so I can start working through this. All the depression I have experienced is exactly as you said, feeling regret and sadness at everything I want to do and haven't achieved, and wondering why when I'm an intelligent individual I just cannot see things through or stick to anything. Thanks for the video
Wow I literally feel the exact same way... and we are the same age. How are you doing now? Connect with me on IG _sydneymichellle
I feel the same EXACT way!! I didnt realize that it was ADD 😁 Did you get your treatments? My meds didn't help very much
I can 100% relate. Has treatment been working?
same i'm 17, dealing with everything along with severe depression and anxiety for years and ADD explains everything so much, my brain feels constantly scrambled
I hope you all can get the help required and achieve success ❤
I was diagnosed with ADHD. In 2006 when I was 27 in another city I am not in today. The city I live in doesn't seem to believe it and keep diagnosing me with bipolar instead. The thing is every medication for bipolar I've been on only ended up making me angry, mean, and constantly wigging out. Finally I stopped listening to those idiots and got off the meds. Between listening to people like these two and others on you tube who suffer the same conditions. I've been able to help myself get better for the most part. I do think there r area where meds for add may have been helpful. I'm just glad that there formats and webpages full of people with some very helpful advise. Since Dr.Tana and Daniel. I eat better. I know how to get my anxiety down with meditation. And I no longer wig out. Haven't done that for 5 years now. So thank you for taking the time to reach out to people who can't afford the proper help
I don't see Tana "cutting off the ends" of Daniel's sentences. I see daniel dominating the conversation.
She definitely has ADD. Lol she keeps interrupting him 😂
I thought the same😂😂
And too fast, too much. She needs to develop her own space where she can encourage her calmness. I have to keep a space to myself and distance because I was not improving with the people who incited that disorder in me.
Me
She interrupted him cause he didn’t let her speak.. ( nothing against him, he is very smart and explains well ) I would love to see a video from her, how she deals with add - and I really like her speed of talking, but everyone has a different preference
I just found out a few months ago I have ADD its been so hard because I could never focouse unless I loved what I was doing and fall in love easily I thought I was cursed
I was diagnosed by ADD but my mom didnt believe it ....she thought I was making it up...and practically laughed it off :(
Im sorry that happened you, i hope you find the support you need.
that’s how my family is 🙄
Diagnosed about 2 years ago at about 34 as a Mum of three! When I found myself looking into ADD because I thought my middle daughter exhibited signs of the disorder, found that I myself demonstrated most of the traits. Getting support for this has been very difficult - seems most "experts" have not actually specialised in this type of disorder and I feel, tend to brush you off or see you as a person who is seeking medication ( this may be me reading too much into it) rather than a genuine case. Get people telling me all the time: "well just write notes", "why don't you just write everything down", or "you just need to take more responsibility!". But none of this helps me in the least, as this is all obvious to the best of us!
It isn't that we want to be shit at all this, *we just are* ! Telling a person with ADHD to "get over it" or "just remember" is like telling an asthmatic to "just breathe". The more they focus on trying to breath, the harder it gets! Can't wait until things like ADD are understood from an objective scientific view so that laymen like myself don't have to fight the uphill battle of convincing family/strangers. I once thought depression was an "excuse", until I experienced it. Now, I really wish I had the strength of mind to stay in uni for long enough to make a valuable contribution to things like this!
To others struggling in a similar way, I encourage you to message me so we can get shit off our chests together!
Wow, so true. Its especially difficult when I do not completely understand it myself and the person that needs 'convincing' has his/her mind made up before I even speak.
By the way I am a mum myself and anxious for my daughter to have ADD too. Can you maybe tell how you recognised signs of ADD in your daughter?
What are the symptoms? I recently went back to school and seem unfocused. I read and have to reread and write notes to be able to understand what i read. I take a day to get myself organized.
They knew they were not achieving for their potential”... that is very inspiring because it motivates you to take better care of yourself to live a better life.
This is a very helpful episode. I am going to watch it several times to remind myself. Thank you guys!
Thank you!🧡I recently got diagnosed with ADD and it's hard when in my culture we are told it doesn't exist depression/anxiety/any mental diseases/therapy/so on. Knowing something was always off and now knowing whay I have and getting help for it feels so good. Please be open minded and help those around u
I am impulsive but I have learned that through self observation, mindfulness I can avoid shopping for stuff I don’t really need. I fidget big time. I can’t sit still, I blurt things out. Exhausted! Falling in love is so much fun!!!
I have been off my ADD meds for 16 years and I regret it now at 35. I really need a scan done. I feel so bad for my husband who has had to deal with me.
You are literally saving my life lovely people. Many many thanks to you.
Last year I had a friend who had ADD just as bad as I do and my teachers had to keep us across the room from each other or we would get super distracted and blurt out really random stuff 😂😂
Thats exactly what happened to me haha! When I was in middle school, my friend and I had to follow a rule put in place by the school that we had to be 5ft away from each other at all times or else we would get in trouble. We even had to get our lockers moved because they were to close lmao! Then I got diagnosed with ADD when I was 20 and it all made sense as to why I acted how I did lol
Alice Wiggin - sounds more like tourette's. 😃 Just kidding, that was the first thought that popped in my head n just had to blurt it out. 😉 I've ADD too so don't take offense...
I was diagnosed with ADD at age 7. I also wondered if my toxic/dysfunctional relationship’s. For 5 years on and off I would go back to the same unavailable guy which was extremely, extremely toxic. The beginning was always great, then we would start fighting then end things then get back together. It was a never ending cycle of disfunction but yet I couldn’t stop it. I have horrible commitment issues and one of things I say causes that is my fear of boredom that I associate with commitment and how normal/stable relationships are not exciting to me. I always would joke with my friends that whether it’s work or a relationship I thrive in disfunction and chaos. Everyone in my life never understood why I constantly would be pick these toxic relationships that had so many red flags. Now it all makes sense
I have always felt like there was something wrong with my head, so I did get myself checked out and I was diagnosed with minor depression and social anxiety. But somehow that didn't really feel like the whole truth, it felt like there was so much more wrong with me. And suddenly, I was procrastinating, like always, I found a video about ADHD in adults, and it just made bang in my head. That's me, that would explain all my problems I've ever had in my life. So then I began digging up all the infomation I could find, everything fits, but it also fits with a big part of my family. Both of my parents, my grandfather, my sister and even my cousin seem like they might have it. Is it really possible, or likely that that many people of my family have it? Or do this symptoms just fit on anybody?(I'm not talking about some,but really most of them,if not all)
One of the reasons, I think, why my parents didn't got me checked out, even though I was struggling, was that they were struggling just the same when they were kids and thought that that was normal...
I feel much the same way. I entertained the idea, first, however, that I have ADHD. I have a coworker (woman) who also has it, and my brother had it (much different than myself, though). My psychologist has already hinted that I may have it, but I find out next week. I suggest maybe getting a thorough psychological testing done, if you haven't already? I had to take a grueling 15 minute attention test. I didn't think I did poorly on it, but I only did half as well as I could have. I was stunned. Good luck!!!! I keep watching videos and reading articles, and the more and more I read and watch, the more I realize I really probably have it.
This is legit what happened to me- diagnosed with anxiety and depression but it didn't make sense, accidentally found ADHD and boom! Now I see it in my dad and brother (who've gotten in so much trouble for it) and it's blowing my mind.
I was also diagnosed with depression and social anxiety first and it didn’t really sit right with me. I mean yes, I definitely have social anxiety and I have bouts of depression, but it’s more secondary. I ended up seeing a new psychiatrist who in the first meeting he said he had a feeling about something and tested me for ADHD and sure enough, 100% ADHD!!! It’s been a relief finding out and learning so much about it and being put on medication has changed my life
I’ve been following you for 17 years Dr.Amen! Thank you for everything! If you ever need someone to volunteer for a brain scan I’m your gal 🤣✨🧠
I am textbook woman with ADHD innatentive type. With all the sexist stereotypes that go along with it like "ditzy", I am shy and anxious in many situations but very bubbley in others if you get me excited about a subject.
Commentary on romantic life... man... if I had known. I probably wouldn’t have been so prone to toxic and abusive situations. OH WELL, I know now, and I know for my daughter
Me writing done examples of struggles with this for a doctor appointment while eating dinner and watching this video and commenting why am I like this
People, don't feel down if you have add or ADHD. It can be a gift in some aspects of life. You have the gift of hyper focus. Anything you are interested In you give 110%
It's a gift and a curse.
Kim Possible yeah it is. I almost failed 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade because of it not being diagnosed early enough and because I was getting sick from the medication. It made me go through a whole ordeal of depression and anger issues and lots of problems. So I totally agree.
MMega Pixel And I DID fail them! It's more of a curse in my opinion.
I agree, it’s finding something I’m interested in long enough, that’s the difficulty in my life :(
Hayley Robinson excuse me? Yes they do feel down and depressed because they feel stupid they have not been able to finish a task, to concentrate to stop cutting ppl off while they are talking only to bring up 1 thing that turns into the topic then ends up with you talking about the funny cat video you seen etc etc. We have no impulse control and to someone who doesn’t have it or understand it. They are looking at you like you are mentally challenged or stupid. I know this first hand. When you say it’s a great thing being super focused ya sure that only happens after numerous testing and 6-9 months of trying medication etc etc. Until you get the diagnosis and testing and meds we aren’t focusing it is a battle daily and you can’t understand or say something like it’s a gift to ppl who suffer with it. Your comment is false and upsetting to anyone with add that may read it. And that’s wrong of you
I think that women also aren't diagnosed because it's more accepted that women are "a certain way". For example that a woman is more talkative compared to a man.
onee yeah like if a girl in class seems quiet but she’s actually zoning out, etc, bc theyre acting in a way that is outwardly “how girls should act”
Thank you for speaking about this. I just turned 30 and am still undiagnosed
I have A.D.D. and I scratch my head and stare at lint that flies through the air and sounds and other things that move in my peripheral vision. I also move my place if I'm sitting in a chair at school or anywhere else for that matter. I didn't self-diagnose,but I went to a doctor because I was failing some classes in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade. My A.D.D. ranges from me not paying attention to someone talking to me to me jumping from one thing to another while I'm talking. I know that I do it, but I try not to. My family regularly have to tell me to focus and they try to get my attention when I zone out. Once I was taking a test and I saw this piece of lint and I stared at the lint that was flying through the air, after I stared at the lint for about five minutes I heard some of my classmates talking and it royally screwed with my head for about ten minutes. Eventually my teacher noticed and she was aware of my "disease" or whatever so she sent me out of the room and made me go to a teacher workroom that was silent and empty of people and distractions. I might go to the doctor again to see if I might have Social Anxiety because I get really scared and I start to delay and hyperventilate when I'm around new people or around people I'm not very close to. Well this comment is a mess. Whatever.
No dear
What u r typing resonates with me
You just described me. Just when I thought I was the only one..
I'm part of this exclusive club too!
So very sad that we have to label everything as a negative...... So what that we might be a little distracted here and there or interrupt or be hyper from time to time or be depressed. I was diagnosed with ADD, depression & bipolar and put on meds. Never got any better but got worse. When I said "no more" to all the drugs and nonsense and got off of all of it I got so much better and today I'm so happier & at peace w/ who I am. God played a huge role!
I've been recently working on getting my health in order and I began seeking treatment for substance abuse (weed, I'm a stoner that's tryna quit) I realized something was going on with me as I started to notice certain patterns popping up in my life (the same ones you mentioned in this video)I realized my drug use is because I'm using to self medicate but I didn't understand for what. a few days ago I had a memory of me telling my parents I thought I was ADD but it was overlooked. I decided to look into it now as an adult and you guys are talking like you know me. I'm not going to self-diagnose but I'm working on setting up an appt with a therapist soon and I will definitely be bringing this up. Thank you guys!
i needa smoke less to, realized it numbs me instead of helping me deal with my severe depression and anxiety
wow. this resonated with me so much. thank you both
Her interrupting him makes me so anxious 😂
I was diagnosed with everything under the sun at age 14. As an adult, I finally got to question all these labels and now have the doctors consensus that I'm only CPTSD and ADD.
6:30,
6:59
1) NEED EXERCISE
2) SMALL AMOUNTS OF PROTEIN throughout the day( eggs, protein increases dopamine which stimulates the frontal lobe) Omega 3 fatty acids EPA
3)
4)
Got ADD after a frontal lobe injury! This makes so much sense now!
You guys are amazing, I see such parallels between myself and Tana. She is so inspiring! I am looking forward to reading your book, just got it on the kindle and I hope to visit your institute one day. I wish this video (and your others) were available 20 years ago when I got diagnosed in the days where "nobody looked" 😂. Its been a lifelong process to figure out what works for me, and I'm doing well self treating but I would love to take it to the next level.
Superb
The thing for me is I never ever seem to finish something I had started ever. And 1 get bored and distracted easily and so fast. Also, I don't feel that I have the energy or the will to do anything that's for my benefit, like improving my skills or studying. And I'm a MASTER procastinator.
If anyone can help, pls do.
I seriously think I have this, there was a time when I was really focus most part of the time along short times of this poor attention then some anxiety at 8 and then I started to lose my qualities,like I was a good listener,had a great memory,great luck,lot of self esteem it was like at 10 I was hitting puberty cause everything became so difficult to me,embarrassed even to talk or to think , distracted and wishing for hours passing faster at school but I didn't notice until I was 16 when I started to get depressed and suicidal due the amount of anxiety and lack of achieving in my life .it Hurts a lot to remember that I don't feel connected to my past or to my healthy version back then when I was a child
there were times when I do good at math then awful cause my brain won't connect with stuff I've done multiple times or I do think I actually know and then I start to doing them all wrong it breaks my self esteem and feels like I'm not good at all like the knowledge I have collect was locked down or if I couldn't reach it anymore,this has been so frustrating cause i can get very nervous about my results and possible mistakes 😔😔 this has been affecting my life a lot,so I also get angry and over sensitive to people's opinions too
Sounds exactly like me, I'm going to go get diagnosed soon, but everything's just so hard...
OMG - as the mother of 2 daughters - 1 with ADHD - the other with ADD and 2 grandsons with ADHD, I'm finally starting to see where I fit in, in this puzzle!!! It's been very frustrating for me to know that I read books at 4 years old, was scouted for the Engineering Program at UNO and on and on and yet I'm struggling with my lack of success at age 54. Wow, this was a terrific eye-opener!!!! Can't wait to see someone about this! Thank you so much!!!
I hate hearing that other people with ADHD were able tp be successful like her. I do not know how to let go of the jealousy because this is when i realize its not all ADHD, im just less capable in general. Anyway its great she is able to do all that, their daughters will have a good role model!
I recommend doing some research on ADHD. There's a great channel here on CZcams - "How to ADHD", the girl has some great advice. The key is finding the ways of doing things that work for us personally and totally ignoring what works for other people :-)
Stop telling yourself "I'm just less capable in general" and try to find out what works for you :-) I've been doing that for 3 years now in various areas of life. It takes some effort and isn't possible everywhere and all the time, I need to take other people into account. And it feels really weird to "tailor my life exactly to my needs wherever I can" - but it works :-)
People with ADHD usually have bigger potential than others but also need different, very specific conditions than others to develop it. My sister has the inattentive disorder, she daydreams all the time, unable to focus and her room is a horrible mess. But recently, she got passionate about the 1800's Sweden interior design style. Now she's cleaning her room for the first time in her life and she will have a beautiful room with a unique style :-)
My daughter prob temp lobe and ring of fire at 16 months told grandpa "that's disgusting!" after making a bagel with cream cheese. As a toddler she got out of the cry room at church to the sanctuary. I tried to quietly motion for her to come back. I finally needed to get into a dead run and she looked back at me and grinned before trying to crawl up onto the altar during a homily! At 2 she would wipe desitin all over the dresser and climb on the cubbies at daycare. At 3 she pushed a kid off the slide for cutting her. She put her pull up on her head instead of her butt when I said to put it on, get into trouble for coloring on the tables, and ran out of MDO class for being asked to stop talking during the story. She would laugh hystericallly at night and spit out water or throw it while getting ready for bed. Her older sister would jump on the bed and anything belt like or a necklace or a scarf she would swing on it from her bed, jump up and down and flap her hands when excited and run around and make moaning noises. Some of that may be autism. She is definitelly overfocused cause she gets stuck and super irrational. Now they are 11 and 12 and one likes to punch the other and the other likes to talk really loud and ramble on and on and little sis says "shut up!" They are a lot less hyper cause of the Adderall and Guanfacine. But omg stubborn and moody and sneaky!
So Tana was diagnosed with ADD; what is her treatment? Is she taking Ritalin or one of the meds for this? I was just diagnosed with Asperger's and ADHD in late June and have taken Ritalin ER 10 mg for 9 days now. I'm not hyper at all, but I'm more focused already I've always wanted so much to be organized. So excited to finally start to decide what to keep and what to toss without the anxiety and overwhelm.
I have the passion but feel there is not enough time and hyper focus is a daily challenge
I relate SOOOO deeply with this but am massively resistant to trying pharmaceuticals! What other supplements in addition to the EPA help please? And thank u foe doing this vid
ok but genuine question : how do I know if I have ADD or if I just trained my brain to have a high dopamine tolerance through social media addiction ?
if you have adhd you’re born with it so you would be unable to pay attention, easily distracted, constantly daydreaming, falling asleep/running around, etc. in class as a child. there are lots of things and it’s different for everyone in the ways it shows up depending on what type you have and you may have developed coping mechanisms by now but if you experienced symptoms as a child its more likely you have it!
@@hannahrinald4266 Thank you :)
excellent ,
thank alot for sharing :)
Only if I can buy the books!
How was she treated? Supplements? Or medication?
Please use subtitle s
This is really helpful!!!
I have add. I need help.
What do you mean by saying that IQ is concentrated in certain parts of brain or more evenly distributed? What is the measurement of "IQ"? Please explain.
how does this affect male's differently? what youve said has really helped especially trying harder is counterproductive, something I've been struggling with. I'm curious about the differences between gender?
I need help because I can not find therapy because I get Medicare and Medicaid. You know any resources for ADHD.
Before breaking the bank, try:
1) working out: bodyweight exercises (NO equipment needed, either) are VERY engaging of the central nervous system;
2) walking especially with a pack of some kind;
3) eat more proteins and cut the carbs (but eat all the fiber you can find);
4) spending timei in outdoor green settings at least 20min. gets you about at least 2 hrs. of "chill" for brain;
5) music: make Pandora and your mp3 player your best friends
6) reading fascinating (to you) stuff;
now you can spend money on treatments and meds - if you still need them.
PS bodyweight exercises I find work are also the most basic: burpees, pullups, pushups, squats, jumping as high as you can. Notice how most use your legs, core and lower body: you also will look stunning quick!
Medcaid/Care have NP’s that can write for IR stimulant generic, I’d save up & pay for Med yourself.
You are lucky to have that insurance. Go to Good RX & find cheapest price
Christina Ostil in the same situation, was on Vyvanse for a year and lost my insurance. Having the medication made the chaos of my life manageable. Without it, I am extremely disappointed in myself because I lost my focus and the chaos and organization has returns
Amen won't lift a finger to help you unless you've got cash.
She’s 🔥
What if someone is really allergic to fish? How is one supposed to get the oh-so important omega 3 fatty acids then?
I know about flaxseed oil, but that it's not as efficient. And omega 3 from algae, but it's super expensive to take in high doses. Help?
Plenty of people use alternative sources. The omegas I buy are usually a combination of fish flax and borage oils. Also allergies are generally based on proteins whereas the extracted fats are just that, fats. As a result most fat-based products are essentially hypoallergenic. For example, most people with all but the most incredibly sensitive nut allergies are still fine with almond oil.
And flaxseed being less efficient isn't a huge deal if you're not pressing the oil yourself. In isolation, nutrients are nutrients, they're the same unit for unit.
So how does this women 'suffer' from symptoms of ADD since she was such a high achiever getting A's and qualifying with honours..?. Does that make her highly gifted almost genius like cause most with ADD have their grades and school suffer for it plus more than likely it's joined with some form of disability like dyslexia for example
women with add can be high achievers and accomplish so much when they have an interest or a passion about what they're doing. personally I find routines and daily stuff to be the challenge, and consistency.
Having ADD doesn't mean you can't be successful. There are tons of actors and actresses that have ADD. The founder of Virgin Airlines (forgot his name) also has ADD. Most people with ADD that are highly successful don't take medicine because they say if they didn't have ADD they wouldn't be where they are. (I know this is a year later but just thought I could share some info :])
Debbie Davis My wife has adhd and she graduated high school with honours, she was diagnosed and had to try several different meds before she found adderal and that helped her focus in class. Her symptoms are getting worse as she gets older and she now has bad anxiety.
I have dyslexia and wouldn't call it a disability. It doesn't disable you from learning, I just don't learn well the way schools teach. It does affect reading, writing, spelling, and memory, so school was is hard unless it was hands on stuff. Dyslexia has its down falls but it has its gifts as well, like being able to figure out how things work by looking at it, or how to build something by looking at a picture, being able to visualize and rotate 3d objects in my head, being artistic and creative. Up to 90% of architects have dyslexia and a high number of engineers, and entrepreneurs have it as well.
Debbie that is what makes it so insidious. High IQ masks ADHD.
No it makes her a fighter. Who was diagnosed tested and months of it and proper meds just like myself and I graduated university with a nursing degree
It's just terrible they can help but instead try to profit from it😰
What's wrong with carbs in the morning?
For some people it contributes to brain fog and sleepiness during the day. I stopped eating carbs untill after my work day and it helped tremendously. I don't get what I would call a sugar crash one to two hours after breakfast anymore. Eating carbs for breakfast lowers my productivity drastically. (my diet change happened way before seeing this video fwiw)
And we get distracted by the stupidest things... like the phone In front of me instead of doing my essay and wondering why wolves are so cute
डा • बनना है दुसरे लोगो कायाददास्त देखने का मुझे बनना है मे आज तक दुसरे लोगो का याददास्त नही देख पाया हुं मे फिस देने को त्यार हो मुझे हमेशा के लिये बनना है मे वर्ड टुर करने को त्यार हुं मे दिन और रात मे त्यार हो मे छुट्टी मे त्यार हुं मे खुद का याददास्त को रिटिन देने को त्यार हुं
I must be the most backwards example of this condition that exists - for me it's all hyperactivity and impulsivity. None of this sounds like me at all - everything about me is 100mph.
Me.
Oh sh@%& THAT S ME
he talks about relationship...i mean with who?? i hardly have people i can talk to
erusha karki You’re not alone, I feel the same a lot of the time.. hope you’re ok ✨🔥💜
Tana, how are you treating your ADD? Are you taking prescription medication?
+naznow Yes, could you guys answer this question? It would be interesting to know.
+naznow Yeh I want to know too! She say's she's living to her full potential now but I want to know how? How can I as well?
Currently, from their videos and tv shows, she's doing it through nutrition and exercise; I would think the writing and videos and outreach "to thousands" are a part of it too.
Hi there! You say Omega-3 - EPA for ADD. Any chance you would help say: What amount specifically? How many mg per day? What name brand or what do I choose? Each article I've read gives a different idea. I appreciate your wisdom.
Me 100%
It's funny he talked about how his first wife had ADHD and implied her behaviors drove him crazy which is why they got divorced. idk Maybe if she has it she listened to him so she's not as bad.lol
So what if you’re female, have some symptoms of ADD, but have many masculine qualities? I think more like a man than a woman. Im very logical and analytical. I don’t do things like women do. I do not have hobbies like women. I can’t do crafts, or decorate or match clothes. I can do plumbing and electrical and build things. I love technology. I’m very mechanical. My brain is function over form. But get this. I’m straight! Haha. I also am in menopause since age 45. Like TOTALLY DONE.
But I also don’t have ADD like a guy.
So idk what to think!!! I think a psychiatrist would have a ball studying me. Lol.
I know women like this, I think this simply means you are a Thinking (as opposed to Feeling) type in Jung's theory of types. It's been developed into two similar systems - the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (which is very popular but well... wrong on many counts, I call it "just a better horoscope") and Socionics. I recommend Wikisocion. It might also mean you have Asperger's syndrome (if you need a structure, have a good long-term memory, sometimes have troubles reading people's intentions and like that).
I prefer intense exercise as well. Love to hear another woman say it. People are always saying go for a walk or a relaxing bike ride. Are you kidding me? Hell no! lol
i just found out i have add im 23 years old should i change my vegan diet ?!
Alia Albinali Wait what
I found out 1 month ago and I’m 25. I read a few things about how a vegan diet can help!
Iam vegan and have add works well for me
lots of bragging going on up there...seems the sole reason for them even making the video.
The whole thing is about stroking the ego of the little man.
Kimberly Johnson - right, barely even touched on the given title WTF!?
It must be your ADD because I don’t see what you’re talking about.
Relax lol bitch
🤔
BRO fuck i didn't wanna believe it but i'm 90% sure i have add
A.D.D. = is this high conflicting character?
ADD doesn't necessarily mean a high conflicting character, it depends on the specific person and on the family background. My sister has ADD and she's a very nice, easy-going kind of person.
Adhd can be both good and bad
You are a "CALLED OUT ONE" , in these End of Times , , With those with the ears to hear~
7:21 With all the love. She LIKES intense exercise, but intense exercise INCREASES THE ADRENALINE and she has hyperactivity... so is probably not what she needs. If I was her I would seek a more moderate exercise like biking with a camper bike so that I go paused, swimming, fronton.
Did she fall in love with her therapist
literally could not pay attention watching this. hmm
Dr Daniel Amen = Amen Daniel Dr -OR- ADD. Coincidence ?!! I think NOT
The man should listen better to wife. He looks like he is high in the Narcisistic scale....
Ugh , what a narcissistic train wreck she is! Detracts from his professionalism and makes the videos unbearable to watch. I had to unsubscribe.
+ Dr. Daniel Amen, Honestly, when i see you two engage in conversation together, the perception of hormones are kicking off and her body language is non-professional. She is about imagery of herself. Christian couple? Good examples?
I see she is not a conservative lady. She is a person who is looking for sexual appeal and the cleavage she shows is not professional. She is 14 years younger than you and I have no admiration for christian woman who have even the small intention of sexual appeal in public places to mass appeal on social media. I would never buy anything from a behavioral person who is like Tara Amen
He's only a christian because there's money he can make off those people. He is vain, judgmental, spiteful, disrespectful of women, rude, and browbeats his wife into getting plastic surgery so he can talk about how 'hot' she is.
The Daniel Amen you see in these videos is drastically different from the Daniel Amen we see in the office every day. He trusts no one, ridicules people in front of the entire staff, makes inappropriate jokes and pays inordinate amounts of attention to the attractive female employees, to the point that at least three have quit because of him. He is an awful person, and a total joke as a 'medical professional.'
Don't blame Tana; she's as much a victim of him as the rest of us.
Rofl I can't imagine being that prude and taking yourself seriously. You think that top showed cleavage? You think your sex-phobia dogmas are at all germane to someone's knowledge of a topic? For shame dude, I mean really, your comment is off-the-charts inane
My daughter prob temp lobe and ring of fire at 16 months told grandpa "that's disgusting!" after making a bagel with cream cheese. As a toddler she got out of the cry room at church to the sanctuary. I tried to quietly motion for her to come back. I finally needed to get into a dead run and she looked back at me and grinned before trying to crawl up onto the altar during a homily! At 2 she would wipe desitin all over the dresser and climb on the cubbies at daycare. At 3 she pushed a kid off the slide for cutting her. She put her pull up on her head instead of her butt when I said to put it on, get into trouble for coloring on the tables, and ran out of MDO class for being asked to stop talking during the story. She would laugh hystericallly at night and spit out water or throw it while getting ready for bed. Her older sister would jump on the bed and anything belt like or a necklace or a scarf she would swing on it from her bed, jump up and down and flap her hands when excited and run around and make moaning noises. Some of that may be autism. She is definitelly overfocused cause she gets stuck and super irrational. Now they are 11 and 12 and one likes to punch the other and the other likes to talk really loud and ramble on and on and little sis says "shut up!" They are a lot less hyper cause of the Adderall and Guanfacine. But omg stubborn and moody and sneaky!
