Much of my depression can be traced back to my ADHD. The everyday struggle with trying to stay focused and being organized makes everything feel overwhelming and pointless. Also making every simple task feel like a complicated challenge. I’m always feeling unaccomplished as I’m always behind on my tasks as I get distracted so easily. I have also struggled with isolation and loneliness because my ADHD makes social interactions really tough. I often struggle with keeping conversations going and reading social cues, which makes it hard to connect with others, like I’m always stuck on the outside looking in. ADHD really keeps my life on difficult mode 24/7.

You're definitely not alone in that. My ADHD was misdiagnosed as depression for decades because of my academic achievements. (The demeaning "You wouldnt be where you are now with ADHD" from psychiatrists and therapists) It looked like I was accomplishing a lot at first, but I was struggling just to stay afloat. I'm still always dealing with feelings of shame and inadequacy even with medication.

My mentor (a professional) told me to not try reading people. Because even if it feels affordless and I do it without noticing, it spends the limited energy I have in a day. I need to not read people, it's their problem if they are bored or have a problem with it, they should communicate it to me and it's a problem of theirs. Also it increases negative thoughts because you actually judge people without noticing as an example you will notice someone is bored of the conversation you are having because you are analyzing. If they don't tell you it's their lack of communication and you notice it, it's either "I am boring/I keep convos long/I can't still connect with people" (judging against yourself) or its "That person is bad ad communicating/We are not connecting because they aren't interested" (Judging others without knowing the actual intentions, it's just guessing not actually you know what they think)

@Acron-l5j It sounds like there's probably some social anxiety going on, too. (Here I am reading too much lol) On Dr K's KZitem channel (Healthy Gamer GG), he talks about how kids with ADHD are often labeled the "weird kid" due to changing conversation topics too freely. And that those early experiences can lead to isolation and social developmental delays. And on top of all that, ADHD'ers like to give themselves anxiety as a motivating factor (cramming things in at the last minute to meet deadlines). Using norepinephrine and adrenaline to replace the brain's lack of dopamine.

Adding another layer to this: decline in estrogen in women in perimenopause and menopause cause memory issues, depression, anxiety, panic attacks in some women. So sometimes the underlying issue might be deeper than we think. Unfortunately, the medical system is not meant to look a person holistically. Fortunately, the medicine keeps evolving and hopefully more medical professionals keep up with the literature

Yes! Perimenopause ... some doctors don't acknowledge and misdiagnose women with incorrect prescriptions. Taking the wrong prescriptions can lead to various issues such as hallucinations, deep depression, delusions, etc. They go back complaining and get a "lower" dose. Now its on their medical record and they go to a new doctor and that doctor diagnosis her having bipolar, adhd or bpd. It goes on and on and most women believe these doctors, it's crazy. Which is why doctors can get away with misdiagnosed, most older women don't defend themselves...it's sad to watch.

I'm so glad you made this video. Cognitive impairment was one of my absolute hardest symptoms to deal with as a result of my depression, and I feel like it is one of the least talked about. I almost lost my job over it and it negatively impacted every relationship in my life. I couldn't form thoughts, so I couldn't maintain conversations or participate in work discussions. My brain felt broken and I honestly was worried that my brain issues were permanent. I describe it to people as if it was like dementia because it feels like there is something inherently wrong with your brain function. For me, it didn't get better until I started esketamine treatments. It made a huge difference for my cognitive function and I am so thankful for how much it has given me my life back. My depression symptoms are still present in other ways (anhedonia, low motivation, and sleep issues are a real struggle), but I can think and converse and participate at work. I am really thankful for how much it has helped me. Therapies that address neuroplasticity for depression are so under utilized, so I try to talk about it any chance I get.

After the scans, it was determined that I probably do NOT have MS, or it hasn't progressed to my spine. However, I was told that it's CVID. The neurologist feels I may have had a TIA. She says I do not have dementia or Alzheimers. I have a lot of white matter in the brain, though. I am only 52. My husband swears it's all the meds I"m on. He could be onto something.

I also noticed having my blood speed up once in a day made it better so I try to do exercises when I have the time. And lastly exposing myself to eating or seeing screen light before sleep can cause that. Also whenever I never go outside in a day, it worsens for the next day so just go to a park or garden and sit there or something once in a day like 20 mins.

Last year I had severe memory problems and ended up getting diagnosed with ADHD at age 50. Now I can see that I did have signs of ADHD throughout my whole life, but I felt like in the last few years it had gotten significantly worse. Like before it wasn't at a diagnosable level just had a general level and then suddenly I had diagnosable level ADHD symptoms. I was seeing a therapist and we talked about medication but I have health problems that make ADHD medication an issue so I decided to use other means such as therapy and tools. Then in the middle of all this I figured out that I had a severe vitamin D deficiency as well as calcium issues and it was to the level that My parathyroid hormones were out of whack as well. So we started aggressively treating this. It was really my own fault because I've had surgery that affects my digestion and over a long amount of time I was underdosing my medication for digestion and not getting enough vitamin D and other nutrients. So I was taking high doses of vitamin D making sure to get my calcium and the parathyroid hormone sorted itself out once those were sorted out. But the interesting thing to me was that my memory issues and my ADHD issues almost completely reversed once I fixed those nutrient issues It was amazing it was like a switch was flipped.

The part about ADHD not affecting language skills confused me. One of my most difficult symptoms is my brain basically "shutting down" on itself when I'm feeling overwhelmed or frustrated. Words that would normally be part of my everyday vocabulary suddenly vanish (inevitably making me more frustrated). For example, a simple question like "could you hand me the coffee cup?" turns into "could you hand me the-the thing...that holds the stuff...the THING! It's made of glass. It has a handle. It's a-omg! It's a thing." Box breathing usually helps, but it takes a minute or two to regain control of my vocabulary. I'm 33. I've had this problem for as long as I can remember. Notably, ADHD treatment (Rx) dramatically helps. I was under the impression this is connected to my ADHD. Is this uncommon?

I'm 40, have ADHD, and I have had this issue my whole life as well so you're in (dubiously) good company! In my life and experience with my ADHD, my language-issues come about due to my emotional state. Frustration, surprise, startlement, anger, etc. Anytime I am experiencing an emotional reaction that "knocks me off my balance," my ability to pick the right words is impaired and I start sounding like an idiot (at least in my own head). Check with a liscensed practitionar first, of course, but I've learned that the language-impairments from ADHD can be a symptom of the affect ADHD has on our physical ability to manage emotions instead of a direct problem with the parts of our brain that manage speech.

Also, do consider another point. With working memory, there is also something that I like to call, 'processing speed'. This is usually higher with information relatively more novel than information previously encountered. This is why, I REALLY don't like this notion that rote memorization has no benefits. That line now sounds like marketing propaganda to me, and others who understand human cognition. Anyways, VERY VERY informative video as always Dr Marks.

@@TheBengalDragon I wonder if perfect pitch could fall into the category of "perceptual disabilities". Perfect pitch sounds like a good thing but in reality I'm often overwhelmed by noises no one else can even hear. I hadn't really thought of it in terms of processing and information coding until I read your comment. I can distinctly remember being completely unable to focus in the classroom because of the very loud buzzing of the electric clock on the wall. I later learned that it wasn't loud at all and in fact was inaudible to most of my classmates. To that point, it was one of the only classes in which I struggled to maintain an A. There have been many examples like this over the years.

Your first example is called the doorway effect and pretty much everyone deals with it. It has something to do with how memories are connected to the place they were made. Luckily you can usually regain that memory by simply walking back into the first room. As for the rest, I am so very relieved that I probably don’t have dementia. The Alzheimer’s Society said that my mild cognitive impairment was because of depression, depression meds, and ADHD type inattentive but that was three years ago.

@@ShelbiLyn953I was told that I don’t have perfect pitch because I couldn’t remember a note after about 20 others were played but I definitely hear you on the sound. People will move to another room for privacy because I can hear both sides of someone else’s phone conversation. And when my kids were younger they would tell their friends there was no point in whispering because I heard everything. It’s funny that people accepted the fact that I could hear the other person on the phone from across the room but not understand why loud noises made me uncomfortable.

@@kathleendavidson3316 Interesting. I can recall notes, though I can't name their corresponding frequency. However, give me a dial and a set of headphones and I'll get within .1 Hz of the pitch in question. As to loud noises? Yeah....no one ever seems to understand that. There are special noise-reduction earplugs on the market for people like us which I'm told help with such things, though I have yet to try them.

Okay, so in hindsight: it's been forever since I was faced with this task (the dial and headset). It may have been something more like 2-5Hz depending on the frequency. I remember it being freakishly close. The person testing me said something along the lines of "that's not supposed to be humanly possible". 🤣 I'd really like to try this experiment again now that we're talking about it. Lol. It's been 5-ish(?) years.

I read adhd/cptsd has higher chance of dissociation..I once got off the hwy exit to go home but couldnt recognize the main road. It took like 2 blocks to see something that snapped be back but for a while I wondered If I got off the wrong exit..even when I saw the road signs saying it was the correct street and everything. It was wild.

I had a great memory as a child. But in my teens, depression set in and gradually my memory became very bad. I don't remember what I talked about with people, I don't remember the details of the books or movies I watched. It's hard at work, I try to write everything down, because if they ask me something, I definitely won't remember. At some point, I was terribly scared, I thought I had early dementia, I cried. Then I resigned myself to it. I don't know if this can be changed, but it's hard to live with. Constant porridge in my head. And it affects the quality of speech too. If there was a miracle cure that would cure this, I would be happy. I don't even remember what it's like when my head works normally

If you have never met someone with cognitive impairment from depression, you could be confused. This video does an excellent job of discriminating between the two. And dementia? After a few years of working with older adults, you know it when you see it and hear it. The saddest condition is someone who has had a lifetime of ADHD, developed depression after the loss of a job or partner, and has developed dementia. These folks are absolutely impossible to treat effectively.

But so far doesn't seem to be vascular or altzheimers, but he is 80 next year, so it's tricky to know for sure if it isn't just general old age and a lack of socialisation and a lack of activities outside of the home!

Ha, I've been using something similar to the Loki method to identify items to buy by just opening cabinets in my kitchen in my head and figuring out what I need to buy. The same with the supermarket, I imagine walking around and looking at the shelves to identify what I can buy in a specific store.. others found it strange but cool, but it's the easiest for me as my visual memory is way better than other types.

It has been slowly getting better now that I am mostly stable, but it is still far from what it used to be 15 years ago. I understand and accept that it will never fully return to how it was, but I'm wondering if there are any ways to address this issue. I am in my late 20s, so it is not related to aging.

Thanks for this video . I have bipolar 2 with typical meds. I play music, and while deciding to learn songs without having to use sheet music I discovered it got progressively easier over time . Look for a story and then words that rhymes. I guess that's chunking. Patterns in chords progression. Of course practice. But during conversations still can't find my words sometimes. My lamotriragine is now taken at bedtime and find I have less trouble finding my words . I guess there's different strategies to help with memory problems. Thank you Dr Marks .

I love Dr. Marks's on cognition!!! The domain of psychopathology most difficult to understand until you read the DSM's table of Neurocognitive domains again and again and again. Here are some typos that may confuse meaning in caption for deaf: 06:40 - "Second, dementia usually affects reset memories" --> "Second, dementia usually affects recent memories" 10:24 - "and the categories dividing study materials and to related concepts," -> "and the categories dividing study materials into related concepts," 10:33 - "using techniques like the method of lowkey chunking or other pneumonic," -> "using techniques like the method of low-key chunking or other mnemonics" (I had to look-up how to spell mnemonics. I can't hear if you said singular or plural because I can't hear the /s/ sound, but I'm guessing plural because you said techniques. Also, I speechread/lipread. Just a guess.

Not taking my ADHD medication, I honestly thought I was starting to become depressed again (came off my antidepressants last spring). Started taking my ADHD medication daily and I feel SO much better over all! I had no idea they felt so similar. I was just diagnosed with adhd and OCD/anxiety only 2 years ago age 36. But was diagnosed with depression age 12 & anxiety age 22. So I find it confusing to tell what exactly I’m feeling and why. My brain does not know how to separate; scared, anxious, worried, hyper, excited, etc. if that is something you would be willing to talk about in the future. How all of those feelings feel the same in the brain. 🧠
