asian girls are too smart to get adhd i think
William Ward
why do i feel bad for this alien picture on my screen
Isaac Gutierrez
ive found playing fighting games while listening to music to be stimulating enough
Nathan Hall
I try to just trigger the go full day without eating mode
If I can't I just try to find a game that can or I just take a break for a while and play some more tf2/minecraft/etc while watching anime/listening to music

Fake "diseases" that give scamming piece of shit doctors an excuse to pump people full of opiates and keep them depended on bullshit systems.
Camden Bailey
>opiates
Alexander Wood
Over diagnosed? Probably. But it's as fake as autism
Levi Reed
Amphetamines, opiates, SSRIs it doesn't fucking matter.
Juan Gray
I browse Yas Forums, play video games, and watch movies at the same time.

>no you can't take drugs that help you function and succeed in life
Why do you care user?
Logan Rivera
I have really bad ADHD so it's difficult to be focused on a game.
For example I pirated Doom Eternal but once the numerous amount of upgrade systems came in I got kind of bored and I uninstalled it.
I'll probably reinstall it again though since I know that was a stupid reason. It's like that for me with pretty much every other game too.
I don't let my ADHD affect my friendships and relationships. I can hold long and meaningful conversations. Becuase I've learned to manage it when talking to people. I always jump from one topic to another though and it impresses my gf. She feels energized by having me around.
I've been weirdly focused with animal crossing though but maybe that's just because it's a kids game haha.
Asher Morales
every single one of these applies to me, these are just generic things that could apply to anyone, like horoscopes right? do i have brain problems?
Connor Gutierrez
this is literally me
why even live bros, I hate this so much
Jaxon Ward
This is understandable user it's a struggle for me as well
What I've found works for me is I buy a notepad and write down what happens in games and basically just jump from game to game to game. If I get bored with it I come back in a month read what I did and play until I get bored again
Fighting games I can always play though
Mason Clark
why are you talking about shit you clearly don't know anything about, you stupid faggot? oh wait, this is Yas Forums, carry on.

I think the main problem is that people don't distinguish at all between genetic vs. introduced symptoms. Like I am pretty much like OP pic 3/4 of the time, especially since getting a full time job, although it's better for me than it used to be at the start. The way most of the tests work I would definitely be diagnosed with it.
that's what I'm saying, and people definitely don't rule out other factors. I know a lot of people who take ADHD medicine but don't even keep up with stuff like sleep schedule, diet, and regular exercise.
Adam Perry
This is not caused by ADHD. I do not have anything like that, and also got bored.
Adrian Gonzalez
You'll do it eventually user
If it's worth doing its worth doing badly/late
Grayson Clark
it depends, user. if you can't manage all of that and you feel like you can't help it, then you may have some adhd traits but that doesn't mean you're diseased. people with full fledged adhd have dysfunctional lives and relationships that make everyone suffer on the long run, just like with any other mental disease.
Isaiah Taylor
add what?
Daniel Reyes

Easton Roberts
Why do anons on Yas Forums often deny the existence of many mental illnesses when it's obvious so many anons suffer from them?
Samuel Collins
how do you get diagnosed?
do you just go up to your doctor and say hey doc i think i have add?
Leo Roberts
Pretty much. Though here doctors can't diagnose you with it, and after making a basic test to see if it has any hold, they send you to a psychiatrist for further evaluation.
Carter Flores
Stfu
Eli Sanders
That would require them to admit there might be something wrong with them, and that can't be right. Mental deceases are what leftist trannies have, not them.
Thomas Smith
Pretty sure I'll be fired soon because I'm like this all the time
Tyler Reyes
The only illness Yas Forums suffers is closeted homosexuality and, as you know, it's easy to hide/deny it.

Help videogames, save me!
John Sanders
i think i have add and want to be diagnosed so i can get it treated but i also want to move to Japan eventually and they don't allow retards in the country
true
Nolan Perez
Yeah. We moved to work from home because of the virus and I have these annoying tasks and I'm just stonewalled for no reason.
I hate my brain it's destroying my life.
Cooper Ward
social constructs. no time for self pity here
William Myers
It won't effect you moving to Japan user, you just can't have adderall.
Joseph Robinson
Because it gets (You)s.
Samuel Phillips
>no time for self pity
This place is nothing but self pity.
Jaxson Wood
>treated
What are you expecting here?
Logan Perez
I don't know why you have PTSD user, but whatever it is I hope you work through it
Isaac Cook
he can have adderall, he just has to take all of it before leaving
Gabriel Barnes
Apologize to every introvert you know and promise to stay the fuck away and be quiet, you should move like a rocket when you walk at the park, not near your family, friends, or coworkers.
Cooper Scott
I'm a pretty severe case (never went on pills, my mom did everything in her power to make sure it never happened despite my school trying to force it on me).
Honestly when it comes to games it never really bothers me, I can enjoy slower games or turn based games (Persona, SMT, Silent Hill) just fine along with VNs and other stuff. I just usually very rarely do side content, most of the time will watch YT or a stream while playing, or pause the game to check phone.
Nicholas Nguyen
>can't pay attention to play games
>can't watch movies
>can't read books
Luke Barnes
Well yes, but it's hidden behind a few shallow layers of anger and irony, just enough to fool themselves.
Josiah Torres
Personally I just keep a lot of games installed / have a lot of playthroughs going at one time. I struggle to stick with any one game for more than 30 minutes at a time, so I play a small bit of something and switch to a different game. I very rarely finish anything, and a lot of games I just play the opening couple hours over and over again because I forget what I was doing the next time I open it. Some days nothing seems interesting, but most of the time something will seem okay enough to spend a few minutes in.
Asher Davis
I get movies a lot but books and games? My only issue with books is I find myself reading so fast I end up not really knowing what I just read and can barely remember it, but in the moment I know.
Adrian Morales
I got diagnosed with ADHD as a kid. Grew up and figured it was a meme but I know jack shit about it now. I never went back to get it checked out because I took meds and (according to my memories and my family at the time) it did jack shit but made me super irratable/angry when I didn't take my meds.
I mainly spend a lot of time playing games with long periods of intense action like arena shooters or action games. I also like playing low energy games like animal crossing but I need to feel a lot of progression or I start to get physically uncomfortable (like I feel the need to get up and lift weights or go for a run or some shit). Does anyone here actually know they have it? Is it real?
Carter Taylor

Retard
Luke Barnes
ayy lmao
Levi Mitchell
dumb dangan bitch, I've been putting the same things off for a year and a half
Mason Lee
i used to feel normal but the older i get an the more people i talk to the more i feel like i don't fit in. i just don't understand other people
Dylan Turner
>tfw most of that applies to me
great so its ADHD and not autism
Chase Jackson
Adhd is real user, it's simply over diagnosed or at least was for a lot of people. But for those with accurate diagnosis, it's plenty real
James Barnes
>he doesn't have both
I pity you
David Gutierrez
Thats because Animal crossing pleases your ADHD by setting you small goals and making you achieve them
Its a skinnerbox effect.
Adrian Edwards
actually diagnosed here, tried all afternoon to start gaming but found Yas Forums shitpost more interesting instead, usually with games its just a matter of finding enough motivation to start and hyperfocus takes care of everything else if the game is good
Hudson Martinez
Sorry
Jace Taylor
Again, this is has nothing to do with adhd.
Hunter Lewis
Yeah that's right you better be, you awful person trying to encourage others instead of wallowing in your own filth like the cool kids
Grayson Price
I've been unbathed for a week now since I don't need to leave the house
I'm literally wallowing in my own filth like the cool kids
And I'm sure there's some anons on here who haven't bathed for even longer
Jace Nelson
What is it user?
Take a shower
Liam Cooper
Alright, fine, your membership card is in the mail. You're still a dumb gay avatarfag though
Christopher Thompson
Half that shit isn't even ADHD.
James Williams
I will when I finish my 2 am meal
Thinking about the time I haven't showered has made me feel gross
Jacob Sullivan
No, don't do it, you need to conserve resources in this time of crisis. Using that soap now means you can't use it later.
Christian Mitchell
>2 am meal
Nigga what
Ethan Reed
Good, it'll make you feel better. I'm pretty good with showering with corona going on. My main issue is eating. I playing Yakuza 2 Kiwami for 8 hours straight despite not eating all day
Isaac Thomas
>not having 3nd dinner/ 2st breakfast
Aaron Diaz
thanks ibuki
Christopher Lopez
>he doesn't own copious amounts of shampoo
I own too much and I don't know why. I live alone and I always have an extra 2 bottles unless I forget I have the extra 2 and I accidentally buy another at the store.
I struggle to feel hungry during the day so I pretty much only eat in the morning, late in the evening, and night
I need to eat more food in all honesty
Landon Foster
>extra 2 bottles
Send them to me unless they're faggy fruit stuff
John Watson
gotta go /fast/
Josiah Nguyen
Eating has always been a struggle for me and idk why. Sometimes I'll just not feel hungry for days and I have to force myself to eat
Also where should I start with the yakuza series? Kind of interested in it but no clue how to start it
Nathan Harris
Nothing feels better than gorging myself after 48 hours of abstinence but I feel that is a deep rooted corruption of the spirit of fasting.
James Brooks
>Able to pick up skills and bring them to a far-above-average-level at lightning pace compared to my peers
>Can't actually take advantage of this because ADHD makes the brain physically unable to give a shit about something unless you inherently find it interesting
>Playing new games with friends is usually a pain in the ass because by the time you've learned and dissected all of the systems they're just barely graduating past the basics
Grayson Kelly
Kiwami 1 > 0 > 2 or Kiwami 2 > numbered sequels
Kiwami 1 is a slight upgrade wise in terms of the beat em up combat but 0 is the far better game in every other aspect and it's more interesting seeing the characters as they stood originally and then seeing how they start, the other way around is boring. Then, either play 2 or Kiwami 2, Kiwami 2 is a much better game than Kiwami 1 but it runs on the brand new engine, so going Kiwami 2 > 3 is a bit awkward considering 3 is old. If you don't mind that, Kiwami 2 is good, if the engine change sounds too much, ps2 2 > 3.
Jaxson Harris
Thank you user
Imma go shower now
They are mine
Anthony Smith
>Playing new games with friends is usually a pain in the ass because by the time you've learned and dissected all of the systems they're just barely graduating past the basics
Probably the most infuriating thing with me. I can't play fighting games with friends, the ones I know I body them, the ones I don't I don't wanna play because I just wanna learn each system mechanic. Or even co-op games like Risk of Rain. It's still fun but it frustrates me when they don't learn as fast as I do
Colton Campbell
>ops pic is about a bunch of broad generalizations on add
>people in the thread literally just talking about their general video game addiction
lmao
Ayden Peterson
>invest heavily into learning an arbitrary game system
>realize too late that it's inherently broken and unfun
John Garcia
We are brothers it seems like
Blake Flores
GIVE ME YOUR FUCKING SHAMPOO I NEED IT THESE ARE DESPERATE TIMES
Kevin Morris
It's too late he is already in the shower using them
Grayson Williams
I put off playing animal crossing all day yesterday because the the thought of having to do all the daily chores was too overwhelming and I didn't even check the shops while they were open or anything
the day is 30 minutes away from rolling over and I'm still putting off booting it
I can't fucking take this anymore
this was supposed to be the one game I could relax with and jump into no matter what
Sebastian Nguyen
Just start super small, you lazy smellfungus.
>take the "big" (for YOU) task
>chop it up in several super small steps that a ninnyhammer like you can do
>do them
For an easy example, if your task is 10 push ups then just do 1. Even if its just a wall pushup.
