you mentioned how adhd and anxiety can co-occur, but one could also talk about how symptoms of adhd (especially if left untreated/undiagnosed) can cause anxiety as a coping mechanism.
It has happened for me, that because I'm often forgetting things, no matter how important they are, I developed alot of anxiety as a coping mechanism (even if unhealthy) because with anxiety it's having similar effect to adrenaline or doing tasks in the last minute it can make me remember/function better in short bursts as needed. Though again VERY unhealthy! but it makes it very complicated when trying to treat my anxiety, because I start to panic when my anxiety is adressed, because it means that the adhd symptoms are gonna be more prominent and more impactful on life, like impulsive spending, memory issues or loosing track of alot of things.
They do exist also despite the anxiety, but I know they could be much worse if the anxiety wasn't acting like barbed wire around it.

I havent been diagnosed with anxiety or ADHD, but I feel like theres a chance I might have one or both.
I have most of the symptoms, yet again I know this doesnt mean much. Ive had many issues sleeping, and Ive been fidgeting a lot with my fingers etc.
Im only eleven and its been hard to talk to people about these things happening in my life. I usually feel like they just wont understand, and then Ill break down in tears or something else.
With the pandemic mainly ruining my social life, Ive just felt blocked from the outside, and Im really struggling to get back.
I am hoping to get a therapist, or someone that can possibly help me.

I don't know what I have tbh. Not sure about my full diagnosis. I pace around the house can't sit still, I fidget alot do to anxiety, I stuttered my words and my grammar is mixed up like I have a speech impediment, I forget things easily, I lack focus and not paying attention what the person is saying, get depressed of the littlest things or minor mistakes that can last for months, and having insomnia.

No matter what I do no one believes me. I speak, I get silenced. At this point, I'm 99% sure I have ADHD as I relate to all the ADHD fragments and some anxiety fragments. Not only this video, but I've been researching for over a year and people still don't believe me. So I'm forced to call it a self-diagnosis.

Ive been thing for a while now and I relate to signs of anxiety. Ive looked at many videos and I relate to all of them. Im to scared to say anything about it though since I dont want to make anyone worry of make people think Im do this for attention. I might be over reacting about this though.

It's good to know that I'm not alone. I've been diagnosed with ADHD since third grade, and my worst struggles are overthinking things people say, looking back on the past negatively, thinking about very weird things in the moment when I'm with my friends, and hyper-impulsivity.

I struggle to talk with other people I'm not familiar with. I remember I went to a place called Skate World once, I got so scared to just ask for my skates at the desk I just didn't get any.
I just never know what to say. People make it look so easy.

I really need to talk to a mental health proffessionall but I am way to scared and socially awkward to ask anyone. So I'll kust have to cope with it until I'm an adult or move out.

Best way to cope with ADHD is learning to relax and not worry about things so much. I used to fear social rejection, now I've gotten to the point in life where I reject our society lol.

Y/N: okay?

ADHD runs in my family, and my mother has anxiety and thinks I do too. I have a life coach, and I haven't been diagnosed, but I do have a feeling it's both.

This really makes me feel like I have anxiety but I cant see a mental health professional right now for multiple reasons so how can I deal with it on my own?
