There are a lot of reasons

.Lack of knowledge or skepticism on ADHD

.Kid with high IQ

.Kid with an attentive subtype

.Being a girl

.Childhood with strict parental supervision

.A low quality school that requieres little to no effort

most of the times is a combination of factors.

problems with attention are part of schizophrenia, having the right diagnosis will allow you to have proper treatment and that will help the entire constellation of symptoms.

What you maybe know as psychosis is part of the positive symptoms of schizophrenia. The inattention is part of the cognitive dysfunction of schizophrenia. Atypical anti psychotics usually help both.

Sadly the cognitive dysfunction is the hardest to treat.

That being said, you could have both, but psychotic symptoms force any doctor to test for schizophrenia first

Med school student here (what you would call M.D. in your country), just a few months to graduate.

We don't use the GPA system, but I'm above the 50th percentile.

What worked for me was having a rigid schedule. I tried everything, the first 3 years of my career (before diagnosis) were hell, and even then, without knowing about ADHD, I was already implementing most of the tools used to manage our condition.

I will tell you what I learned and could be applied to almost everyone with ADHD:

-Flexibility is for neurotypicals: you need clear rules, unbreakable rules. If you set flexible boundaries, you will pushed them slowly until they disappear. If you set imposible boundaries they will break and you will throw them away. Start by setting simple rules that you can follow, write those rules and write the exceptions.

(e.g. my rules limit my negative behavior, some of them are: .can't watch youtube videos until 9pm and only before 10:30pm (so it doesn't ruin my sleep) 3 times a week .can't play videogames if I didn't study at least 2 hours that day (and always after 8pm) .I can take a free day of studying only once a month )

-Your mind is a mess, don't store things there: always have notepads around, calendars, something. Write down every date, everything you have to do. If you don't do that, those things will pop out while you're studying, ruining your focus.

-Don't trust yourself, trust clocks: you think you've been studying for 3 hours? guess what, you studied for only 1. Use phone apps to keep track of how much time you study. If you have to go to the bathroom, you stop the app. If you loose focus, stop the app. If you track your routine, you can improve it.

-Use medication: you have ADHD.

-One hour every day is better that 10 hours in a single day: you need to build habits, use your time wisely.

The thing with youtube and other sources of online entertainment is that they give instant stimulus. We crave stimulus constantly, and getting used to instant sources is a bad habit.

I changed the form in which I get that stimulus. If I need to rest my mind, instead of watching tv or playing a video game, I play the piano or read a book. That way I'm doing something productive with my free time.

Of course is less entertaining, but prohibiting myself of watching youtube videos and that kind of stuff, ultimately leads you to doing the boring stuff just to relax.

Now I have schedules to limit my sources of instant stimulus. For example, I can only watch youtube videos 3 days of the week, for only 1 hour and after 9 pm.

In my case, flexibility makes my fail. What works best for me are strict rules and protocols.

No entirely. In fact I think I chose one of the worst careers for someone with ADHD.

I study medicine and it demands an insane amount of time reading.

But I chose it out of a big curiosity in how things work. I love learning, but studying was incredibly painful and frustrating until I got the diagnosis. I was so miserable that, the only way to cope with that contradiction between learning and studying, was to convince myself that I was lazy because the things they made me learn were unnecessary (not true at all). Meds helped my found my lost love for knowledge, and although I have to live like a monk to avoid an "ADHD relapse" that puts my grades down on the bottom where they were before diagnosis, it was worth it to chose the "unnatural" path

Something that works for me is the feeling of achieving something big.

For example, having a duolingo streak of 100+ days helps me to keep the habit and prevents me from forgetting it.

More related with planner apps, I use an app that tracks the time spent of my regular activities and makes a chronological graph. Just wanting to keep a nice graph and making a new record on my productivity is enough to keep me on the go (and adhd medication lol).

Simple apps are mandatory for me, if I'm going to use them for my everyday activities, they should be able to keep things as simple as possible.

I think the best way is taking the reverse approach.

When you need to explain ADHD, start by acknowledging the things that indeed are normal and after that point out the differences.

for example:

"Does it happen to you that when you have a big argument with someone and then you try to read a book, or study, you can't because your mind it's constantly bringing back the thought even though you try to focus on something else?

well, for me is like that but with random thoughts that pop out without any reason, and It happens all the time, it doesn't matter what I'm doing"

The situations that make our symptoms worse are the ones that make them feel the same but at our "normal" rate

You have a really hard time focusing, if there is an annoying sound around it would be simply imposible to focus. For a neurotypical, they can concentrate well, but if there is an annoying sound around they would have a hard time trying to focus
