ADHD comes with a set of superpowers.
0:03
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
When you have ADHD,
0:05
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
patterns in everything are vivid,
0:08
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
almost palpable.
0:10
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
Parallelism is your fluent language,
0:15
and bottom-top processing seems to be more natural
0:19
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
for most brains,
0:20
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
but when you learn to actually leverage it,
0:24
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
you become a learning master.
0:28
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
The ease of switching the thoughts midway through thinking process.
0:33
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
Lateral thinking is a breeze.
0:36
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
It's as easy as reading.
0:38
S… Speaker 1 (S8_B2)
In fact,
0:40
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
there are studies showing that neurodivergent brains are doing lateral
0:44
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
thinking when they rest,
0:46
which I can genuinely confirm.
0:49
Think about how cool that is!
0:53
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
The thing about pattern recognition and lateral thinking makes me
0:57
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
feel like I am experiencing a world in a greater
1:02
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
resolution than my neurotypical
1:06
S… Speaker 1 (S8_B2)
peers.
1:07
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
Taking standardized IQ
1:11
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
test feels like cheating,
1:13
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
and you are scoring crazy high simply because those
1:17
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
tests are checking only pattern recognition,
1:20
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
at least for the most part.
1:25
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
I am seeing more,
1:28
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
thinking more,
1:29
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
assimilate and synthesize more often,
1:32
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
and it happens naturally without my involvement.
1:36
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
For example,
1:37
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
it's almost impossible to lie to me,
1:41
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
or at least impossible to hide an attempt at
1:45
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
deception or deflection,
1:47
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
even in text communication alone.
1:50
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
I'm capable of finishing people's thoughts or predicting
1:54
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
their thinking before they themselves had a chance to finish their
1:59
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
own sentence.
2:00
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
So you have two types of
2:04
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
people with ADHD.
2:07
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
The ones that are extremely patient and understanding,
2:12
- which I am told on a regular basis -
2:14
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
or people with an extremely short fuse
2:19
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
that are seemingly very easily irritated or triggered.
2:22
S… Speaker 2 (S8_B2)
Though we all know it's
2:27
mostly undiagnosed or simply very young ADHD people.
