Most productivity tools and apps don’t really work for people with ADHD.We get excited by the shiny features and may think “this is the one!” before reality crashes in (and we forget to cancel the subscription).What are some tools that have ACTUALLY worked with your ADHD?— ADHD Jesse (@adhdjesse) September 16, 2022

Once thought to primarily affect overstimulated boys, ADHD diagnoses have spiked among adult women. For one writer, coming to terms with her diagnosis later in life has put her past and family history in a new light.

"Syndromtypisch kann sich ein Mensch mit ADHS furchtbar leicht (ohne es zu wollen oder stoppen zu können) in die »Angst vor der Angst« hineinsteigern. Er/sie profitiert in einer Therapie dabei in keinster Form positiv von der Konfrontation mit der Angst..." #ADHS  via @readwise pic.twitter.com/rZBs4lCH5t— Manuela Hoffmann (@pixelgraphix) September 7, 2022

It doesn't work. When I step over the clothes pile, I take it to start the laundry, only to remember in that exact moment the unpaid bill, the old vegetables in the fridge and and and. How could I fix the clothes thing with this urgent tasks in the back? This is how my ADHD works— Fx33 (@Fx3313) August 30, 2022

At a check-up after this, I discover that I suffer from bizarre claustrophobia when trying to chill in an MRI machine. The 7,5er midazolam does quite nothing for me. Later I will learn that a huge benzodiazepine tolerance is a common feature of ADHD and ASPD brains alike,...— 𝕸𝖊𝖗𝖑𝖊∴𝖛𝖔𝖒∴𝕽𝖔𝖘𝖊𝖓∴𝖁𝖔𝖎𝖉 (@HEREDOMETRICS) August 6, 2022

Hundreds of young people are displaying strikingly similar tic-like behaviours. But is it Tourette’s, or something more mysterious?

Recent research has revealed a ‘parallel pandemic' of unexplained tics in young people.

Die Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-/Hyperaktivitätsstörung (ADHS) ist eine der häufigsten psychischen Erkrankungen im Kindes- und Jugendalter. Weniger bekannt ist aber, dass die betroffenen Kinder oft auch im Erwachsenenalter an Impulsivität, Depressionen, Aufmerksamkeitsstörungen und vielem anderen mehr leiden. Auf der anderen Seite gibt es kaum eine Erkrankung, über die mehr Mythen und Vorurteile existieren: „fake news“ überall! Wo die Gründe für diese Erkrankung zu suchen sind, wie man sie im Erwachsenenalter erkennt und vor allem richtig behandelt, werden Sie hier erfahren – aber auch, was der Autor des Struwwelpeters Heinrich Hoffmann mit der Psychiatrischen Universitätsklinik und der Paulskirche zu tun hat.

For me, one of the absolute worst things about having #LongCovid is that my brain just doesn't work properly. The unrelenting derealisation, short term memory issues & more. It cuts into your very sense of self. It's as though the brain is sedated; continually half-asleep.— Shaney Wright (@ShaneyWright) June 5, 2022

I feel your pain. I would turn a corner while driving and get confused about what side of the road I should be on, or feel lost driving in my own neighbourhood. So scary. An anti-histamine at night (I use Claritin) and a low histamine diet have done wonders.— Jen (@JustJennyHere) June 5, 2022

I literally realized yesterday I have to go over what I’m trying to say before I say because I’ve talked myself into more dead ends because I can’t recall names/things/places I should and I sound like a complete dolt.— Peter Austin Elliott (@PetieE209) June 5, 2022

The many characteristics of long Covid align to many of Fibromyalgia. If people are wanting tools to manage those characteristics, read Fibro material. Blogs, studies etc.— Mick Casey (@mpcasey93o0) June 5, 2022

Yes this is the worst part of long covid. The only time it has lifted for like a week was after a third apheresis. It felt like it was completely turned off for a while. Anyway it came back to baseline after a week.. I am like drunk/concussed/pulling an all nighter all the time.— Michal Mráz (@michallmraz) June 5, 2022

Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), including those who otherwise require less support, face severe difficulties in everyday social interactions. Research in this area has primarily focused on identifying the cognitive and neurological differences ...

Autistic people are constantly forced to suppress who they are as a means of pleasing a neurotypical world. Social psychologist Devon Price not only wants to give them permission to take off that mask and be themselves, but believes that doing so allows everyone to lead happier lives.
