adhd-informative:youre-a-fucking-human-being:adhighdefinition:Adhd can go into partial remission with therapeutic techniques, but go off. ADHD is a lifelong neuro developmental disorder. There is no such thing as ADHD remission. Some other more temporary conditions can mimic many of the symptoms so it is possible for your depression to make you unfocused and inattentive and then you use therapy treat your curable illness and that could be the end of it. Not to say depression isn’t serious or debilitating but you can overcome it, that is entirely within the realm of possibility. I know because I’ve put the work into it and done it. But neuro developmental disorders are different. It is still extremely important to learn how to cope with different aspects of ADHD to the best of your ability and that involves therapy or ADHD coaching for sure. But this post is much like my own story, like lots of stories of those of us with ADHD. And misinformation (like your shitty sensationalized documentary you want to defend with every breath) prevent people from being diagnosed. And then how are you supposed to get therapy for ADHD if you don’t even know you are exhibiting symptoms of a legitimate disorder because nobody told you the truth about what ADHD even is?! I would try as hard as I could and still I couldn’t compete with those with normal functioning brains in even the simplest of tasks. I could take care of myself, and communicate, and think positive, and break things down into a plan and it would all unravel no matter how much effort I put in. You know why? Because my brain is different. Thinking, eating, acting differently doesn’t change the way my brain developed. It does help make me function as optimally as possible and that’s important, but that will never be the same as someone with a typical brain. That doesn’t have to be a bad thing, but when you won’t accept any different from your type of brain functioning and insist I can jump through hoops to put my ADHD in remission it becomes a problem. Especially if you have a problem with medication as a treatment option. -- source link
