It’s a great thing, because ADHD is the answer, and underachievement becomes overachievement.

Learn a mind-body approach to treating anxiety in my FREE course Grounding Skills for Anxiety, Stress and PTSD: d
A diagnosis of anxiety disorder does not necessarily mean you are defective or that you are not capable of handling it. It is possible to treat the disorder. The disorder doesn't need to be severe. Anxiety can be a serious and difficult condition. It affects our physiology and brain, as well as our experience. This causes us to have increasing anxiety and other physical symptoms. With the right skills, knowledge and practice, you can turn this cycle around. Although it may seem difficult to break this pattern on your own with the right support and resources, you can overcome anxiety disorders!
This video will show you 10 methods to reduce anxiety, stress, and make your life more enjoyable.

However, you should not consider the contents of this site as a substitute for professional or psychiatric advice. Before making any decision regarding your mental or physical health, consult your doctor.
My therapy uses a combination Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Systems Theory. Positive psychology is also used. I also use a bio-psychosocial approach to treat mental illness and other problems we all face. My videos often incorporate ideas from multiple sources. Many of these ideas are based on Acceptance and Commitment therapy, particularly the work of Jason Luoma and Steven Hayes. The section on stress and the mind/body connection is based on the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal Theory), Peter Levine, Somatic Experiencing), Francine Shapiro and Bessel Van der Kolk. The work of the Arbinger Institute is a major source of my understanding of how we can choose the direction of our lives.
The Gospel of Jesus Christ is deeper than that. It orients my personal worldview, sense of security, hope, peace, and love.
If you are in crisis, please contact the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at or 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or your local emergency services.

Subscribe to this channel for weekly content about optimizing your brain:
Over the years, I've had many different jobs. Because of my ADHD, it was difficult to stay with one job for long. Most jobs I would only stay with for 6 months to a year, and if lucky for 2 years.
But I eventually found what was best for me, which was to keep my job and make it work with my ADHD.
This video will share what I wish I had known before I started my job as a ADHD professional. I hope that you will find the same lessons I learned at every job I tried to help you find a job with ADHD that you will love.

Commonly prescribed medications like Vyvanse and Adderall can be illegal in some countries even if legally obtained elsewhere. In addition to prescriptions, common concerns for students, advisors, and parents include how ADHD might be perceived in Japanese society and universities.
On the other hand, many find Japan accommodating for people with many types of disabilities. English and Japanese speaking clinics provide a high quality of care to manage ADHD, and teachers can be willing to provide reasonable accommodations in classes.
Join the National Clearinghouse on Disability and Exchange (NCDE) along with our panel of presenters to learn how people with ADHD can study, volunteer or work in Japan. Captioning will be provided.

A popular prescription drug used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is increasingly ending up in the wrong hands. New data show more people are abusing Adderall across the country and in Hennepin County.
In fact, experts say only alcohol and marijuana are abused more than prescription pills such as Adderall. Many of the abusers are in high school.
"I didn't start really noticing until I was about 15-years-old that I was addicted," said Steve, who didn't want his last name known.
Steve was 8 years old when he was given a prescription for Adderall to treat ADHD.
"It made me very attentive, made me very alert, everything was vivid, more clearer."
But Steve's addiction almost killed him. He overdosed on the medicine that was supposed to help him.
"I had gotten so addicted to them, 30 pills in one day wasn't enough."
Brian Aulwes, prevention specialist with the Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge, often goes out to local schools to talk about the dangers of Adderall abuse. He has firsthand knowledge.
"I think the first time I took Adderall and abused it, I was 14 years old," said Aulwes.
He didn't have a prescription, but that didn't stop him from popping pills. Aulwes said he got the drug from a friend.
"He stole a prescription from his mom."
Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge surveyed nearly 500 students at four West Metro schools. Sixteen percent of respondents said they've abused prescripton pills.
"One of the larger populations of people who abuse Adderall are your academics all stars at a school, " said Adam Pederson, also a prevention specialist with Minnesota Adult and Teen Challenge.
Adderall is sometimes called the "study drug" or "smart pill" because it can help students focus better and stay up for hours, cramming for tests. The pills are also popular because they are easy to get.
Steve said he had no problem getting what he needed, when he needed it.
"It wasn't anything to get them. Doc—these are not doing it, can you up the dose? It was just as simple as that," he said.
But students are not the only ones abusing Adderall. Authorities said it has become a big problem in Hennepin County.
"In 2012 we saw about 15 or so individual cases where Adderall, the prescription drug, turned up in illegal circumstances. which is different from what we've seen in the past," said Hennepin County Sheriff Rick Stanek.
There are a number of side effects to Adderall abuse, includng elevated blood pressure and kidney failure. But the biggest possible side effect is overdosing, which could lead to cardiac arrest, or even death.
Those who've abused Adderall say the lingering effects of the drug can be felt for years.
"Drugs, especially prescription pills, it's just something I can't do, I still can't do it. To this day I won't even take Advil because of what happened to me when I was younger." said Steve.
