I feel like I have untreated ADHD, but at this point I have no idea how exactly to get the proper help and sometimes I am too afraid to ask. What should I be looking out for in finding treatment?
What’s called ‘untreated adhd’ in this image is in fact just normal personality traits that most people experience.
You’re absolutely right that everything depicted in the image are things that are almost certain to occur to everyone. However, the difference between the two, as some other comments have already mentioned, is the frequency of which these symptoms occur causing it to be more debilitating than you would expect them to be.
I think it’s valuable to society as a whole to respect and be open to other people’s struggles when it comes to mental health, and your comment does not seem to acknowledge that but rather dismiss it.
This type of thinking and being quick to dismiss is natural because our human brains cannot interpret experiences others go through, especially with things that involve how they perceive and process information in the first place. But this is the main reason there are so many people that have untreated mental health issues BECAUSE of the fact that it’s really hard to differentiate a mental health issue from someone going through regular everyday life. And the inverse is also true where many people struggle don’t even know that they’re struggling because even they think it’s typical.
