ADHD meds are dangerous and no real solution
Which makes therapy and managing the challenges of having such a condition the solution for the majority of those with the disorder...except that a lifestyle that focuses on instant gratification + watching these youtube short vids that are under 1 minute long as an actual hobby only encourages the mind to have its attention span become shorter and shorter.

Heck, the retention rate of a Youtube video that's around 5 minutes long (give or take a minute or two) is around what, less than 50%?
 
You realize just because you call someone a bigot that doesn't mean it's true.
I know. Sadly, that's mostly the case when I do it.


No, the leftist didn't do crap to change things.
I guess you have a lot of things yet to learn.


There used to not be free time because if you had free time you would die. You couldn't just run to the store and buy food or even clothes. You had to do it all. The idea is a lot more modern than you think. Innovations from those people who worked hard created it. That is how far removed the generation is.
they did only because of innovations
No mate. Progress like that doesn't come because of technology or innovation. Progress like that comes because there are people who fights for worker's rights.

We could live in a world filled with AI and robots all over the place and still be overworked if people didn't fight to reduce work hours or improve worker's rights.


No we aren't all strong generations.
Yes we are. All generations are strong in their own way. There is again...

.. no such thing as weak humans


When you cry and get offended over words, you aren't a strong generation. Words are just words, which go back to my complaint about part of my generation.
Words can heal
Words can horrify
Words can puzzle
Words can joke
&
Words can kill

The reason why I sometimes rise up against words is not because I'm not strong. Its because I know the power of words.

You words on the other hands, are showing me that you still have a lot to learn.


Also you call yourself a feminist
Wrong. I'm not a feminist. I have no rights to call myself a feminist. I'm a simple leftist who tries to help as he can.

since by historical facts when they are put against XY they cannot win in most situations
What historical facts? Do you have clear scientific and sociological studies showing that trans people are necessaraly better than Cis people in their own gender categories or are you just projecting here ?

I'll wait for your studies patiently here. And then, we will have a talk about your moral panic.

This goes back to why I really dislike white saviors. Which they are also the reason
Oh, I remember now !! You are that conservative Mom that was explaining me why there was no systemic racism in society and why liberal schools were all but victimizing kids of color, right ?

I'm reassured, I thought that I was facing a new bigot here...






Therefore, no, free time wasn't always a thing and something a person was born with.
Actually, when you are born in the upper classes of society, no matter the period, you have freetime.
Freetime now exist for popular/worker classes also because people fought for have more rights.


An immediately noticeable symptom of ADHD in kids would be inattention and impulsivity (hyperactivity could be a symptom as well), which manifests by certain kids having a difficult time concentrating on a specific task, or even "hyperfocusing" on a certain activity. This leads them to pretty much ignore any other task(s) that may be equally important.
Yes, those are the symptoms, not the causes.


Additionally, they might struggle with following instructions as well as being able to stay organized, which can impact their academic performance and social interactions with others.
Indeed. Again, symptoms.


Engaging in activities that don't require the kid to focus for extended periods of time, such as watching videos instead of practicing the ability to read a decently sized chunk of text, fails to train the brain on how to focus effectively.
Interesting ! Do you have studies explaining that ?

But again, those are not the causes of ADHD.
We all want affordable health care.
I do not need to want it. I have it

Most people obligation to their side prevents meaningful change
No, only one side prevents meaningfull changes: the right side.


The answers are somewhere in the middle,
Nop. They are on the left side and in science.

And they are all accessible to everyone. All you need to do, is understand them.


but each side wants their extreme sides. I often wonder if this is by design.
Not really no. One side is simply fighting against the hegemony and bigotry of the other. Each side are not equal.

And most importantly, there is no such thing as truth on both side in politics.

bruh i dont usually watch youtube shorts but i did once a few weeks ago. Ended up wasting 3 hrs on max 1 minute long nonsense videos that start autoplaying befire you even notice it, it leaves you no time to even process what you even saw before tge next one starts. And each video had obnoxious, very loud music which made everything feel even more hectic. I understand parents who ban their kids from having internet access. The digital dementia crisis has been predicted over 10 years ago, I saw an article about it pinned on the (physical offline) pinboard in the waiting area of my graduation prep classes. This was around the time when that smartphone craze was in its baby shoes, and look where we are now.
I guess you have a lot of things yet to learn.
Like I said, average American centric understanding of history.
I do not need to want it. I have it

#FrenchTrolololo
I don't and I live in Lermany. Free health care is a scam.
 
I don't know about Germany, but come in France, if there is one thing we can be proud of is our health care system and or green "vital card"


Cancer is an easily diagnosable illness with available standard treatments. You can't compare it to anything more complex. And this is where basic healthcare fails. It saves ppl from dying and nothing more. I'll leave it at this and end this conversation before I get so angry that I feel the desire to physically attack human beings.

We taught people the words others call them have meaning or merit behind them, which has taught people to let others control their happiness and mental health.

Also you call yourself a feminist, so tell me what should people with XX do? Should they quit competitions, since by historical facts when they are put against XY they cannot win in most situations? We should just end women's sports. Or do you believe women with XX should lose spots and opportunities to those born with XY?

This goes back to why I really dislike white saviors. Which they are also the reason, my children will mark black on every form they fill out so they can gain that advantage they didn't earn.
told you lol

You just twisted every word I said to fit a narrative you created on your own. Not once did I say mental illness didn't exist. You took me saying people allow others to affect their mental health and created that.

Do you think in the last 200 years people didn't have to work their asses off just to survive? Growing their food and making their things? My great grand-mother had to work with a baby on her hip in a field, just so her family could eat. There wasn't much room to help others when you would suffer for it. I could go into why that generation and the one before it had multiple kids because it was the only way to survive, but I would be here all day. Therefore, no, free time wasn't always a thing and something a person was born with. You could find outliers in the past of wealthy people, sure, but it wasn't a normal thing like it is for us today.

People do not have to work like they did only because of innovations to make work easier for people to where, people don't have to work from daylight to dark just to meet their bare needs.

Also I'm proud to say I have lived mostly an alcohol and drug-free life and have smoked nothing. My skin thanks me.
the person you're replying to, is a troll

What did Bob do to get banned? Do I really want to know?

Regarding ADHD, I wonder if the definition of it is going to change. I wonder if the increase of screen time at a young age will impact ADHD diagnoses. It’s always existed. My dad has it and he’s a 64 year old boomer who clearly did not grow up with the internet and social media. I also have it and I didn’t grow up with the internet either. I didn’t get my first smart phone until high school.

I think people believe ADHD is an attitude problem. Or it’s people who get easily distracted/can’t sit still. It’s a lot more than that. The worst part of ADHD for me is the emotional regulation and time blindness. Growing up it really affected my self esteem. I’m still a work in progress lol.

My level of laziness is top-tier today. I got up and cleaned random things so I wouldn't have to write, :milaugh:So I'll respond to both of your posts under this one.

I was well aware, like I told you, and I also told you exactly how it would go and I was right.

Innovations helped the world move forward, making work easier to accomplish. Some places are more advanced than others. I hope these advancements spread worldwide. I think you might remember us having a discussion a couple of years ago about US medical technology compared to others and my belief it is unfair some places don't have the same advances with certain conditions as 1st world countries do.
 
@Logiko the ban is warranted. It doesn’t matter if he’s being sarcastic, our language has power. Also even if he was annoyed, he still had to think of a response, type it in, and hit reply. There are other ways to end a debate than resorting to violence. It’s perfectly acceptable to say, I am getting upset and need to walk away from this discussion.

Yeah. I'm always open to talk and I can understand that a rightist person feels angry about what I say. I can even discuss with far rightist who say very awfull things (when technically, I shouldn't talk with them).. But fascist rethoric is where I draw the line. I'm glad the moderation made a move here.

Sad part is people still don't understand political terms and throw them out like morons. We even got a guy here who calls you a conservative and liberal at the same time. Even going as far as to label the action of explaining textbook definitions as propaganda.



People falsely believe it is a left vs right wing problem when they don't even know what those are. In U.S., so many falsely think the Democratic Party is leftist when they are Center-right.
