How do you use adhd as an advantage to everyday life as far as making a living?
Answer:
There is absolutely no evidence that ADHD exists. This is an invention by drug manufacturers and those who want to prescribe to behaviors that are not compatible with theirs/or when they want to rid someone of accountability for a specific action. There is absolutely no chemical imbalance or any physical evidence that this is anything but a speculative disease.
become a councelor for it. Or an advocate. But you should never use your handicap to get an upper hand from an employer
You have a physical job vs. a desk job. My brother and mother would both be considered ADHD by today's standards. My brother is a machinist and just constantly active. My mother works at a hospital (she's already retired 3 times and still won't quit working) working with instruments. Neither would have ever done well at a desk job. My brother's best friend in childhood is the same. He works construction. Constantly doing stuff.
The difference between them and me (I don't have ADHD) though is that they complete tasks and then move on to the next one. I tend to have 8 things going at once and it doesn't work for me, so I'm trying to retrain myself to finish and move on to next. This is something I should have done years ago and I suggest you train yourself for it as well.
ritalin!!
dynamic jobs may be fit for people with ADHD.
You have to remember that each person, whether they have symptoms of ADHD, or not, is an individual. So, with that in mind, you need to determine what your true interests are and find a way to pursue them. This is true for everyone, but for a person who may not have the patience to put up with trivialities or other things that may "interfere" with what they want to do, or how they think things should be done, doing something that you find interesting or engaging is very important. Think about your own personality and what "makes you tick" and then think of how you could use this. Do you like to work on cars or work with your hands? Find a way to do this. Do you like to be moving or active? Then what type of professions would engage that part of you?Many people with adhd are creative thinkers, like to get down to business and find ways to get things done, or are good at leading people. These are all very good qualities in the business world. Find out what you love and do that. You will be happier than if you only concentrate on $$. Try not to listen to people who have negative things to say, and make certain to list all of the good qualities you posses, and have someone you know help you with that if necessary. List everything, large or small. That will help you to think of yourself as an individual, and also to possibly uncover things about yourself that could help in choosing a job or career. Also, don't let people who don't know much about you, or specifics about ADHD speak about that which they have not experienced. Life is much broader than that. If you have not had any success with medications for ADHD, try looking up food allergies and adhd in an online search and see what you come up with.
