What struggles do people with ADHD face?

well depending on the type it changes and it is different for everyone. I personally struggle with mixed type. I forget exactly what they all do but one type is primarily inactive and normally makes them unorganized and shuffle brained. the other type is primarily active and makes them hyper active. the last type mashes them together. I have mixed type so I'll talk about that. from what I've heard it can slow the part of your brain that lets ideas pass to your conscious mind. so you get a lot of ideas or thoughts. I don't know why it can make you hyper active but I feel an almost constant urge to move. I would before medication have some problems in school. A.D.H.D is nothing to worry about. sometimes I lie and I don't know why. A.D.H.D can make people impulsive. some have problems making friends. some can be extreme with how they act. I'd say that about sums it up. asking multiple people with A.D.H.D can help you learn about it.

This is coming from who has ADHD, so this is my perspective on it. ADHD makes the world a very scary and challenging place. People with ADHD may experience things like lack of focus, easily distracted, hyperactivity, lack of organization, forgetfulness. People with ADHD may also experience things like impulsivity, irritability, aggression, and stubbornness. People with ADHD might also have anxiety and/or depression. Some people with Autism may also have ADHD. For me personally, it’s a struggle for me but you learn to adapt to your needs. It’s important to note that just because ADHD makes things harder, they don’t make them impossible!

I think it really depends on the person. Everyone is different and we don't all experience ADHD in the same manner. For me, anxiety and occasional depression came as a bit of a package deal - mostly anxiety. As a kid, being so anxious made me withdrawn, and my social skills suffered pretty badly as a result. Something else that i notice in particular is being impulsive. This varies per person as well, but i have to take extra care while driving sometimes, and sometimes i want to buy things but hold myself back so i can spend the money on other things. Some people with ADHD are very talkative, while others tend to be quiet because they're anxious or don't know what to say.

People with ADHD face many problems related to how other people see them. Some people think that it is not a real mental illness, and some people only know about the hyperactivity and yhen when other symptoms are shown they don't understand that it's beyond the persons controll. Because of this people choose not to tell people but then they get judged for not acting "correctly" this can really hurt a persons self esteem especcisllh because a person with ADHD already struggles with keeping emotions in check. Most people with ADHD get diagnosed with another mental illness at some point( depression, anxiety) in girls ADHD presents itself differently so they can be misdiagnosed or just think there is something wrong with them.

Well it may vary from person to person. Obviously you have the main ones such as a short attentions span, hyperactivity, fidgeting and squirming etc. But it varies for every individual. Some may find they don't have some of the symptoms that others do, it depends on person to person. In my experience with it I tend to be quite impulsive, speaking without thinking or doing things without thinking them through first,I find tests extreme hard as I can't focus and my mind is just in a completely different place to where it should be. I also have to be doing something. It could be tapping the desk or walking or biting my sleeve, just anything. I can't stand still for long. Obviously this is just the things I have to deal with, or some of them, it will be different for everyone, so if you have any suspicions then it would be best to ask someone professional and trained in the area.

People with ADHD have trouble focusing, and paying attention. They may have shorter memory and lose things often aswell, and sometimes they can be disorganized. Some people with ADHD may have trouble controlling anger, or just emotions in general, and some people may have impulsiveness. They may get bored more easily and crave attention more aswell. A lot of people with ADHD will have problems at school or work, and may preform lower aswell. Sometimes they may also have trouble socializing and bulding friendships too. They may have a harder time battling addiction, and might have a low tolerance for frustration.

As someone who wasn’t diagnosed with ADHD until they were 19, I didn’t realize that the way I thought or the path that lead me to thoughts/actions were different than everyone else. In school, I was chastised for being lazy when I couldn’t retain the information that I read in textbooks. I would get frustrated and experience a lot of anxiety because I could read a test question 30 times and still not understand what it was asking, because My brain would shift somewhere else faster than my eyes could move. I would have questions that would pop into my head that I related to the subject at hand even though others didn’t. If I didn’t have my questions answered right then, I would not be able to continue with a lesson because I would zone out and miss a large part of the lecture which would then confuse me when I got to homework and/or the next lesson. I have a hard time comprehending one-on-one conversations in higher stress situations, like job interviews, professional appointments, medical visits, etc. As a kid, I would get in trouble for not listening, but I didn’t know what I was told in the first place. While I was experiencing all of these things, I shamed myself a lot because I thought that I was the issue. I thought that I was not handling myself well and that it was my fault that I was doing these things and having these feelings. Not only did I not recognize these issues in myself, but my teachers, my parents, and other people in my life thought that what they were observing, (my actions and reactions because of these experiences), were character flaws and lack of intelligence and/or ambition. This inhibited my ability to connect with teachers, peers, and others. It also fueled my development of depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. I have now learned to give myself a little bit of grace and explain my situation to those who notice my differences. I have found that once people understand what is happening, they are a lot more patient and accepting. People with ADHD are not stupid, they are not a nuisance, they are not insensitive or lazy. Most of the time, they don’t realize that people don’t think the same way that they do. My way of thinking is different and can be annoying sometimes, but I wouldn’t want my brain to work any differently.

I'll make it short We tend to overthink a lot , we over process things inside our heads. Which makes people think that were slow or lazy but we're over working our heads over things. The outcome can be good because we think it over a lot and also can be a bad outcome because we're too slow to make a decision because of overthinking. We rarely get bored, we're very imaginative. We could be good writers they say but can be stubbornly lazy to write . We love to think a lot. We suffers from insomnia. We often get annoyed because we can't concentrate on things that we need to do

You allways feel like your mind is on a racing track but your body is bounded to your place, and the disonans colides and makes you act impulsively, to be unconcentraited and to forget things or float away, even while engaged in an activity,

ADHD people, they can't focus correctly, they might seem always hyper. The fidget or twitch alot and they might stutter because of it.
