It's very interesting. I wish I could observe it. Don't you wonder though how evolution allowed this trait to come so far though, especially with it being so prevalent. Potentially it meant that for centuries there have…

I haven't really heard about ADHD framed as a working memory impairment. Because it does seem like an easy workaround via religiously following pomodoro - every 25 mins a reminder that you should look at your task list.…
If you have the symptoms, you have the disorder...a disorder which is only identified by the symptoms. Do you get it?
How does exercise affect a child with ADHD? I always see these portrayals of ADHD children being hyperactive and just think: what if you just made them run outside for a while...surely they can't have never-ending…

You are actually making the case that ADHD doesn't exist or is pretty meaningless. There is no scientific basis for it, it was a bunch of criteria that were arbitrarily chosen to create a term called "ADHD" so that they…
If you look into how the criteria is chosen its very arbitrary. And this descriptive diagnosis where you pick from list A and B is extremely bizarre from a common sense standpoint. And there is no brain imaging or…
"ADHD" is pseudo-science in my opinion. The impairment to life is certainly real. But the cause is unproven, and for ADHD and the medication, it must be present since birth...a brain defect...but we live in an…
You will find that a lot of negative ADHD med discussion is censored. Even on HN if you question the science or legitimacy of an ADHD diagnosis you will have posts removed. It's a pretty deep rabbit hole to go down if…

Avoidant behaviors can also just be a result of getting older. Everyday is the youngest you will ever be and gradually doors close off to you which can induce panic and anxiety. Starting a task towards a longer term…

That sums up a lot of workplace disfunction. Proactively pushing new ideas and then getting blamed for failure, not applauded for them attempt. It’s why corporates can’t innovate internally.
Be cautious, the meds can make it worse in the long run as your brain seeks homeostasis and now demands even more dopamine than before to motivate.
“Today is the day” and sometimes it just is. It’s nice to tell yourself a story as to why this is the ideal moment to have a reset.
The brain does adapt to adhd meds and there are studies showing this. The thing I don’t like about adhd is that the premise is the brain doesn’t produce enough dopamine so we return it to normal levels…but the brain…
