Fuck, this means things will get even worse for me??
Oh.
Great.
I’ll just… put that over here, with the other “terrors I’m trying not to hyperfixate on”, like Parkinson’s and climate change. >

Right now I’m fixated on it being-51c When it gets warmer I’ll go back to being fixated on those things too. >

My husband is currently in the hospital recuperating from a second procedure and pancreatitis, and I’m getting snowed in. Once he’s home, I’ll freak out about this. >

Awww shit. Hopefully a fast recovery. >

Thanks, friend. It’s complications from cancer, and while he’s doing better now, it really brought home just how much of me he is, and how cold my life would be without him. >

Damn this chokes me up. Peace and love. >

Thank you, and to you as well. >

This is a small sample - 212 adults - and incomplete data.
"Because large-scale studies that follow patients with childhood-diagnosed ADHD into older age are lacking, the researchers had to contend with an incomplete set of data. "
SO limited in other ways... >

Oh yeah, a lot of people I know in their 30s, including me, had undiagnosed ADHD. It was always played off as just being hyper. So we're pretty much out in that department. 
I'd love to see more data in the future. But that is indeed a pretty small sample to report confidently on. >

And not to mention ADHD is also excessively over diagnosed, often the blame for children’s bad behavior and an excuse to Medicate and relieve parents stress. 
Too much alarming with little data here, although a proper brain PET scan (which no one gets) can Identify actual ADHD. This was used in this case, so at least accurate diagnosed patients were selected. >

My theory is that chronic sleep deprivation is a contributing factor to alzheimer’s. Sleep is important for cleansing the brain. I frequently do not get enough sleep. >

I'm ADHD and bipolar 2 I can't wait to see how my brain rots as I age
Least I'm not suicidal nowadays :shrug: >

Ah another one of those: "Do you exist? Well by existing you have 100% more risk of cancer to the anus" >

“There are people who have this genetic susceptibility to ADHD and never develop ADHD symptoms, and people who do not have this genetic susceptibility and develop ADHD. This genetic susceptibility is merely a risk factor for ADHD that is not currently used in clinical practice, which further reinforces that our results have no clinical implications and should not concern patients with ADHD at this early stage.”
