Take a look at this new treatment(neurofeedback)[1]. It changed my life. Instead of changing brain chemically you can change the structure of your brain. It's not ADHD that's the problem, its the focus networks in the brain not be

I found out about it in this book The Body Keeps the Score[1]. Its a massive book, so I would just focus on the Neurofeedback section. But it doesn't have the first hand experience so mileage may vary. By co-incidence the researcher t

We desperately need some tear downs of the Ventilators. The iFixit[1] page only has manuals and very few pictures. If people can get their hands on medical grade ones even if they are broken would be useful. I have found some good ones loca

Just curious are you referring to this? https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwebchannel-index.html# Is it possible to get any benchmarks or comparisons.

I have found the Buddhist's have a neat trick to this. I think it boils down all of life is suffering, but suffering is just an illusion. When you start seeing reality that way, it becomes easier to detach emotionally from everything.

I updated my profile before the post with my email, not sure why you can't see it. I added in the description in case you still want to contact. I also thought about doing this at home, but the risks are just too great to mess with som

Neurofeedback training has been very useful that I even forget that I have ADHD. Take a look at this post if interested. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19984126

Unfortunately it is difficult to understand without experience and "learning" it. It was completely different from what I expected, but I was going to try anything. Basically by mounting a few EEG electrodes on your head it can m

I've been through what you are talking about, but unfortunately I could not continue using those medications. What worked for me was not forcing structures in the brain to function through chemicals but actually changing them through a

Just reading the article I am extremely interested in the Advanced Query search. Bravo on allowing the user to decide how they search(unlike some products). It's something I have been waiting for years. What I would like to see next is

I would suggest looking into Neurofeedback treatment. It is possible to strengthen the focus networks in your brain and that could change everything. The treatment was pioneered by the researcher who runs this center in Canada. http:/

I really like the concept and design. Haven't used it fully to grasp how it works yet, but I did find a few bugs at first glance. I can send you info by email if you'd like.

Your brain probably just got really good at adapting because it needed to, there was no choice really. So I wouldn't feel to to bad about it that it ended up that way. It was just a natural consequence of your environment. If your envi

I'm guessing trauma which causes disassociation and can be somewhat reversed or healed because of the neuroplasticity of the brain. But a psychopath might be inherently wired to have disassociation between rational/logic part of h

You just need to find that dopamine-reward cycle that keep you motivated until it gets to a point where doing that exercise becomes a way of life. I say this as a person that has felt those things more than anyone. I don't hate exerci

I'm so glad you have managed to be happy with ADHD. I didn't mean to imply anything in my post, I was talking about some hypothetical person with ADHD (whose had a similar past to mine ;) ). I just wanted to make the point to whom

I've had this problem for many years, although it's not perfect that problem is largely solved and being able to shift focus so quickly has become a super power. When your focus shifts so often you can't develop basic cogniti

I think it is interesting if the technology did it, but I'd want to know what incentives people would have to use it, since it would just make things more complicated. Maybe it lowers the cost of transferring assets, and there is the f
