I was diagnosed with Autism back in January at age 20. It's crazy how when you're diagnosed with neurodivergency, nothing changes but everything makes sense.
@ClaireInTheAire
"It's scary to have it, it's scary to might not have it" is such a good way to describe the hesitancy to getting diagnosed.
@rileytreisman1904
i was like jaiden as a kid, model student, great grades, except i WOULD work up until the Very Last Minute to submit assessments and go through hell every essay submission and be like "ha ha i'm a procrastinator AND a perfectionist isn't that unfortunate" !!! yeah i have AuDHD lmao, was diagnosed 2 years ago and i'm so grateful. thank you jaiden for sharing your experience <3
@EducatedNation2
As someone with ADHD a sentence that really helped me when Im stuck in ADHD paralysis is “if you were lazy you would be having fun”.
@voncornhole
"Miku obsession" into "ADHD/autism diagnoses" is the 2nd funniest consecutive videos since "dating simulator" into "coming out as ace"
@justlingplease
"i did all my homework on time!", "sure i didn't like Studying and found it hard to focus", "Up Until College" hit me like a truck,, i feel like that's a template for adhd diagnosis at this point
@PkmTrainerJade
I just got diagnosed with ADHD today! Jaiden you inspired me to get my butt up and get tested. (Once my health insurance kicked in.) Now that I have the diagnosis I feel a lot better! I will be getting drugs but I'm glad to finally have some answers! Hooray for joining the club!!!
@abbexx4283
Perfect example of the fact that symptoms for adhd (and autism) isn’t always the stereotypical stuff
@animalmace
The animation of this video is ABSOLUTELY INSANEEEE
@hagangray8006
The trickiest thing about ADHD (in my opinion, as someone with ADHD) is that if you aren’t that hyperactive, ALL the symptoms can be put under “normal people problems”. You try to explain it to normal people and it’s like “I forget things, I’m always late, I can’t focus on school work”, etc. etc. and people are like “well yeah I do that too” but it’s not the same! Your brain is sabotaging you all the time, it’s not just little mistakes. Anyway, that’s my opinion on sometimes getting a diagnostic is hard and ADHD is misunderstood. Thanks for coming to my ted talk lol
@illusioned0ne
"I could think clearly, in a line." This is the hardest part of explaining what medicine for adhd does to an adhd person and this is the line i try to use while getting told to stop being lazy. The amount of thoughts, ringing, audio sensitivities, etc that the medicine just quiets is a literal bliss to be normal. So normal people who use it to get ahead, i use it just to be normal.
@pattiepepper6217
You forget a BIG factor in your youth success was the SOCIAL aspect of school. You had people ALL AROUND YOU - ALWAYS telling you what to do. A bell rings, you go to class, EVERYONE goes to lunch, you wake up...What are you going to do? See your FRIENDS! A bus transports you, your parents cook and do your laundry. It's systematic. Automatic. When you grow up - you're alone. You have no more systems. Just drudgery. Good luck everyone.

The fact that u cleaned the birds room AFTER making the script and not WHILE making the script and leaving that task half done to return making the script, and jumping back on and on impressed the hell out of me
@Agsy8288
I was diagnosed at 15 and also put off getting meds because I also thought I wouldnt need it, but then eventually I realised I should try it and when I tried my first instant release I only remeber the quiet. Everything was quiet and normal IT WAS INSANE and I just folded laundry. It was genuinely revolutionary.
@kibbyanimates6251
That part about being very organized as a kid and then it all falling apart as an adult is scarily relatable. Maybe I should stop putting off making that appointment to get diagnosed.
@arjeeleynes
"i cleaned the birds' room after writing the script" my adhd ass: THAT'S FCKING IMPRESSIVE
@EpicNerdsWithCameras
Jaiden: "I have ADHD." Every neurodivergent YouTube user: Pretends to be surprised
