adhd

a mental disorder that is poorly understood by many. contrary to popular belief, people with adhd aren’t r-t-rded. they just don’t learn like most other people do. this, in turn, p-sses off the faculty at school, and they make everyone around you aware of of your disorder, and since your non adhd cl-ssmates don’t understand your disorder either, you’ll be labeled as different, guaranteeing that you’ll be made fun of multiple times. despite this, adhd people tend to be more intelligent than those who do well in public schools. they don’t pay attention in cl-ss because guess what stupid teachers? your cl-ss is useless to them and boring as sh-t, not because they suck at learning. most kids with adhd are highly creative. after the h-ll they endure at school, they usually go on to be successful at life and never look back. famous examples of these people: albert einstein, jim carrey, pete rose (baseball legend), will smith, michael phelps (olympic gold medalist swimmer), robin williams (rip), walt disney, and way too many people to list have adhd and go on to do incredible things.
teacher at school: what?!?! your son has adhd?!?! oh, we can help him.

teacher in cl-ss: …and that’s why 5,552x is parallel with 9,467y. (half the cl-ss is asleep) hey…uh… kid with adhd! solve the next problem! what is 3,758y equivalent to?

student with adhd: uh…i… i honestly don’t know, mrs. richards.

teacher: are you that stupid?! we went over this yesterday! twice! you should be paying attention like everyone else is! (even though no one actually is) do this 10 page packet so i don’t have to fail you! -whole cl-ss laughs at him-

kid with adhd in 20 years: i love living in hawaii! i’m so glad that people outside of school appreciated my creativity! now i can rest easy knowing i found the cure for cancer!

attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. most commonly found in children, the main symptoms of this disorder is a lack of attention and too much activity or excessive daydreaming. ritalin is the drug of choice to treat adhd.
most of my cl-ssmates have adhd. teachers are always frustrated.
scientifically known as ad/hd (attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder), there are three types:
1)the predominantly hyperactive-impulsive type
2)the predominantly inattentive type
3)the combined type
the term add is a term that has circulated the media which has the same meaning, but generally applies only to the predominatly inattentive type.
the proven causes of ad/hd are low glucose levels in the brain and genetic factors (inheritance via a family member).
the most effective treatments of ad/hd are medications such as adderall and ritalin. diet changes may also help, but cannot be guaranteed (changing diet to fish oils and fatty acids).
finally, ad/hd is a legitamate disorder and to say otherwise is complete and utter bullsh-t, not to mention an opinion supported by backward old farts who still spank their children.
if you are consistently restless and/or have trouble paying attention in cl-ss on a regular basis, chances are you have ad/hd!
attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.. over diagnosed learning disability. for those that really are adhd it sucks. the people that are “normal” take adderall,ritalin etc to study for tests while we have to take it every f-cking day just so we can sit through cl-ss without getting distracted by the lamest things.
person without adhd:
“i took an adderall/ritalin/concerta/strattera to study for my test thats today..i could possibly kill myself using this but who cares at least i get a good grade”
person with adhd:
“get a f-cking life…. i have to take it everyday so i can be normal”
a very real disorder that often faces a lot of skepticism. this is largely due to the fact it is a very overprescribed and misdiagnosed illness, even more so then ssri’s for depression.

the most widely believed neurological cause of adhd is a problem with dopamine(catecholamine responsible for pleasure\reward system) over efficiency in the transport of dopamine leads to the reuptake before it’s full effects are gained.

dopamine is also vitally important when it comes to motivation and what we can derive pleasure from. eg. normal person can do activity a for hours adhd person being identical to the normal person but having the overactive reuptake loses interest and the ability to persevere with activity a much much faster.

this dopamine problem becomes especially problematic when it comes to the frontal lobes leading to problems with attention, memory and problem solving.

stimulant based drugs such as ritalin(methylphenidate) adderall(l-amphetamine, d-amphetamine), dexedrine(d-amphetamine), desoxyn(d-methamphetamine) all work by inhibiting the dopamine reuptake and by releasing dopamine, this works by fixing a lot of the dopamine related problems theorised to be the cause of adhd.

this ridiculous overprescribing needs to be stopped though, testing needs to be improved because at the moment it just gets handed out like candy. just because billy is lazy and doesn’t like doing his homework does not mean he should be slapped on prescription speed for the next 10 years of his schooling.

generic soccermum : “i need an excuse for the incompetence of my son who really doesn’t have adhd, little do i know this is just something else my child doesn’t need, oh look an ad for depression you know i was feeling kind of sad the otherday when a family member died i think i need a 12 month prescription to paxil or zoloft”

multi – billion – dollar – pharmaceutical – company : “nnnnnmmmm dollarmoney”

attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is a very real disorder that is over diagnosed. people with adhd have difficulty sitting still, being quiet, and focusing on things at length. these sensations are difficult to explain unless you have them; it is not that the person does not want to focus, or that they are stupid. when someone with adhd tries to focus on something, the thought often slips away, or is replaced by another thought – minutes later they will realize they have lost focus.

when a person who does not have adhd takes adhd medication, they get high. when a person with adhd takes adhd medication, they feel calm, and can focus on things for the first time in their lives.

people with behavioral issues unrelated to the disorder (acting out, seeking attention, etc.) are often incorrectly diagnosed with adhd. people who just want the diagnosis so they can get their hands on adhd drugs will pretend to have adhd symptoms, as well. this is very frustrating, as it diminishes the integrity of those who actually have adhd, and require medicine to be able to function like normal people can.

people with adhd are often above average in intelligence. when they are given medication and can function without a mental handicap keeping them down, their whole lives can change for the better.
damaged child: look at me! look at me! give me attention!

stupid teacher: oh dear, he must have adhd.

drug abuser: sh-t man, i need some adderal.
hey doctor, um, i’m having trouble focusing, and stuff.

stupid doctor: must be adhd.

person born with adhd: i don’t know why it’s so difficult to focus in cl-ss. this is extremely frustrating, and i just want it to go away.

intelligent doctor: here’s some vyvanse. take one a day, and you will be able to focus like everyone else can.
an absolute gift from god that lets a small sample of people have the ability to actually see this generations version of “normal” for the mundane bullsh-t it is. if it was for people like this, its likely the word would stay put, and advancments in science and art would never happen. usally a person with adhd already “gets” wtf a teacher is saying 2 minutes into her elementary boring -ss lesson, and their brains branch to deeper thoughts that need answering, vice the simple bullsh-t that is still, and will continue to come of her mouth for the next 5 days.
teacher: o.k. cl-ss so today where going to learn a deep and interesting subject about the solar system. so we have all the planets, around the sun…..

-while the rest of the cl-ss wrestles to grasp this simple sh-t-

timmy’s adhd mind: how do we know that, who said so, whats stopping us from going there, who found this out, hubble telescope? how do we know that pictures are the same in sp-ce as they are on the planet. how much funding does nasa get?

teacher: timmy why don’t you sit and pay attention, raise your hand, and do you work quietly like the rest of the cl-ss.

timmy: well ma’am, if i was as stupid as the rest of these idiots i would, and if you weren’t as stupid as you are, you’d give me somethin to acually learn.
