Also FYI the ADHD subreddit is hilarious. We're so eager to dump feelings in 5000 word posts but NOBODY there can read any of it because it's too long.

We need to hire some normal folk to come in and TL;DR that shit for us.

This is great and convinced me - it also mentioned why most "knowledge" doesn't work. So, can someone find another (preferably 3-5 minute) video where he talks about what DOES work? Thanks!!

Medication. When you have bad vision you get glasses. No amount of trying will fix it.

That's not what the person whose video we're talking about (Dr Russell Barkley) alludes to in the video. He said there are techniques you can use at the "point of execution" (or similar phrasing).

Surely he has another video that summarizes what he means? Because in this one he doesn't say it, only just alludes to it.

It doesn't sound like he means medicine.
