Adderall is classified as an amphetamine that is highly addictive. It is a drug that can be prescribed to those who have ADHD; however, it is highly abused by university and college students. It is called the "study drug" for those who abuse it because it increases concentration and creates intense invigoration and euphoria. This video looks at Adderall and how it works both in the body and in the brain.

It is also important to emphasize the mental health aspect of this video. Studies have shown that students try Adderall due to stress. We want to help students to understand the dangers of Adderall. We can help them manage their stress so that they would not depend on Adderall or to help fight their addiction by outlining some resources available to them.

Losing Stuff? Use Colour

featured image

Here’s a simple strategy I’ve been using for decades. It’s visual. Dramatic. And reduces the number of times I wail, ‘Where is it? I had it in my hand a minute ago!’

Bonus: it also helps me keep things that go together, together.

Double Bonus it helps me to locate a particular file folder that I’m looking for.

Well, I’m a husband, dad, comedy writer, producer, director and performer. In 2009 I produced my first ever documentary, ADD & Loving It?! which has now been seen by millions of people worldwide. I was diagnosed with adult ADHD (combined subtype) at age 47, and I’ve had a few bouts of depression too.

This Patreon page is for those of us that love to take on new projects, and are interested in a wide range of topics. It’s a space where we can freely talk about our minds that jump here and there, and the fun and challenges that come with that.

New research finds ADHD patients who take amphetamine medications like Adderall appeared to have a higher risk of developing psychosis than those who take methylphenidate drugs such as Ritalin. CBS News chief medical correspondent Dr. Jon LaPook joins CBSN with details.

Are You Having a Hard Time Finding Your Stuff? Have Multiples

featured image

One common challenge our Patrons (share about in the chat rooms can be captured in the frustrated wail, ‘Where is it?! It was in my hand 30 seconds !!!’

It was always me misplacing the tape measure. I found a solution eventually, or rather I have accumulated one over the years.

When I realized that I could not ‘pay attention’, ‘pause and think’ or be mindful if I kept misplacing a TING, I had to stop. The solution was to have more than one.

This does not apply to all cases. I only have one table saw. This works well for me for small items that are easily lost.

Patreon –

There are many strengths that go along with our ADHD symptoms. There are many strengths that you can express and which ones you might have. It all depends on your individual situation.

To be clear, ADHD is NOT a legitimate disorder. I'm not suggesting that we should avoid treatment. I'm on Vyvanse and believe in multimodal treatment to help us overcome our challenges and find our strengths.

How Do I Stop Losing Things?

Let’s talk about simple ways to save time and energy. And since “Time is Money” we will also be saving money. Oh, and saving your sanity. You can never have enough sanity.

Hi I’m Rick Green and I want to know how to solve two challenges at once.

The first challenge is I want to stop screaming
I had it in my hand a minute ago, it being the stuff I use every day; phone, keys, wallet, scissors.

The second challenge, I want to stop wondering where are my spare glasses? Or where’s the tape measure or my blood work form, you know, the things I don’t use every day, or the things that go into seasonal hibernation; winter boots, summer shorts, car battery charger which we need right now, where is it? and I’m running all over the place. I want that to end and I want to know how to make it stop.

All right let’s look at these two big time wasters. I’m out to conquer them because I don’t have time to waste and the reason I don’t have time to waste is that up until now I have wasted a lot of time.

The question: Where is the thing I was holding 10 seconds ago, or where is the stuff that we packed away for the summer, or for the rainy day?

The answer is not to work on my memory, yes we will look at short-term memory and long-term memory and how to improve it in other videos, but I have found through decades of hard work and personal experience that doesn’t help me in the moment with the stuff that should be a no-brainer, the stuff that I shouldn’t have to worry about remembering.

I don’t need to work on my memory to find my toothbrush every day, that’s not the challenge; this is about the stuff I lose all the time. The answer actually is prevention, prevention.

Let me explain, years ago when I was giving a presentation on how to present a great presentation, it was for demonstrators at a science museum and at some point one person asked um how do you get the audience back again after you’ve lost their attention? The answer is something that I had learned when I was practicing to become a world-class magician, which eventually I did not become, and I said the secret to getting the audience’s attention back is don’t lose it in the first place, right?

Direct their attention or in magic it’s called misdirection in fact a horse ran through, you didn’t even see it you’re so focused on me. Amazing but if I don’t use a number of tools and tricks and practices to distract your attention
[Video Clip of Rick doing magic in slow motion]
then not so amazing, you know where it is. Am I getting off topic here? Probably.

So the secret to not misplacing things is to have a place for it, that way you avoid the “what happened to the hand sanitizer? I had it in my pocket, where is it?” and then I find it upstairs in the bathroom and I haven’t been to the upstairs bathroom all day, but apparently…

You may have asked other people friends or family honey where is my purse, or honey where is the remote for the TV, honey where are the batteries for the remote for the TV, or honey where do we keep the flashlight?

Well here’s a less common question one that I’ve never even asked ever, honey where is the cutlery? Where do you think it is? In the cutlery drawer, where it always is.

Now think about that “where it always is”, where it always is, oh can you imagine, can you imagine where’s the cutlery? Where it always is!
In fact you could come to our house, I wouldn’t bother it’s a bit of a mess now and look at all the drawers that we have in every room and I bet you could pick out the cutlery drawer on your first guess. You’d probably go to the kitchen right? Good, good, top drawer by the stove, voila! You’re right, the cutlery drawer, you found it.

If I came to your place I could figure out where you keep your cutlery and utensils in two or three guesses tops, whereas if I had to guess where you keep your earrings, or note paper, or place mats, candles, shoe polish, actually I know where we keep our shoe polish.

For a long time I did not have a place for things, no foam drawer, or wallet shelf, a key tray or a drawer specifically for my Fitbit and the charger, the list of excuses as to why I didn’t exercise today.

Having a cutlery drawer saves valuable time, searching the whole kitchen or even the whole house every time you need a spoon? I mean really?? Check the bathroom, oh look in the broom closet, where are my socks? Check the china cabinet, and then… Dumb. Right?

For many families medication is a necessary option to treat the symptoms of ADHD. In this instance, you would contact your pediatrician, your child's psychologist or your pediatric neurologist to help abate some of the symptoms of ADHD. It's really important to sit down with this professional and ask questions about positive outcome, about potential side effects and how well your child can tolerate these medications. Typically for ADHD, the medications of choice are stimulant medications and non-stimulant medications. Some of the more common stimulant medications include Ritalin, and Dexadrine, and Adderal, or Focalin or Vyvanse. And some of these are long lasting long acting medications and some are very short acting. Often, your medical doctor will use some of these medications in combination to best help your child. Sometimes children can't tolerate the side effects of the stimulant medications, so your medical professional may suggest something that's a non-stimulant. Stratera is a popular brand of medication. One thing that I always tell parents that's very important, if you're trying medication with your child, stay in very close contact with your medical doctor. And make sure if there are any changes in your child's behavior or symptoms, that you immediately let them know. Also, teachers and other adults that are working with your child are very good sources of information to let you know whether your child's symptoms have actually improved or if there are some other issues that need to be addressed. While there are many medication options to treat ADHD, it's really important that parents consider what we've said here and discuss the treatment strategies with their medical doctor.
