🚨 ADHD is not a disorder
It's a phenotype
It means you have OG genetics
People with ADHD were the elite hunters and gatherers
ADHD is only seen as a "disorder" when you're born in modern times and forced to live an unnatural lifestyle in an unnatural environment
Of course, it's going to be seen as a disorder when you put a kid in a chair for 8 hours a day and force them to study useless shit
ADHD genetics are meant for a lifestyle of constant movement
The hyperfocus allowed us to craft advanced tools and track prey
Highly dopaminergic activities
Reading propaganda/useless info from textbooks is not
The ability to task switch allowed us to respond to threats quickly
The "impulsivity" allowed us to take big risks that paid off for generations
The desire for constant novelty comes with creative superpowers
The result? Constant innovation and invention
ADHDers and Autists (they deserve their own post) have invented all the technologies you use every day
The people with average IQs and no "disorders" aren't the ones changing the world
Spicy take: average IQ + zero mental "disorders" = peasant genetics :)
My advice if you have real ADHD, and aren't one of the 90%+ people who were misdiagnosed so doctors can sell you amphetamines:
- You will never feel fulfilled or reach your full potential living an average life
- You aren't meant to rot in a cubicle
- You need to find what your talents are and use those to generate income
- It's even more important for you to spend time in nature and move away from cities
Don't feel bad if you're imprisoned by a W2
You leave any time and move to a cheap rural area or become a passport bro if you aren't financially independent https://image.nostr.build/fb4bb337c80bc70030ac394398def86d077e34c2661625ba61c4a097d1e5fe50.jpg

Man, I had a thought this morning…
None of our lives should be this expensive or stressful.
None of us are really living—we’re just surviving.
It’s all totally fkn stupid.
We've become sheepish consumers, only focused on making it to the next month.
Dante Cook recently got laid off from Swan Bitcoin, he dropped a really solid quote this morning…
"Faith is taking the first step without God revealing the second step."
