Psychiatric Disease # 2 _ Adult ADHD

Not "lazy."..But the "hamster brain" won't stop running!

Let's get to know adult ADHD.

"Why isn't this work done?"

"I'm so lazy. Why have you been procrastinating for three days?"

"How could you be so forgetful?"

Believe that many people (including office workers) have been attacked in their hearts, right? Suddenly sitting and cursing themselves as "failed," deep down and "wanting to be broken."

But do you know that in medicine, Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - Adult ADHD)

It's not laziness, it's not irresponsibility, it's the "suffering" of the brain that churn chemistry.

Until the patient feels like, "There's a hamster running in his head all the time."

Compare the brains of ADHD patients like

The "hamster cage" where this rat never sleeps.

It ran on the wheel 24 hours, making us feel

"Anxious" is inside.

Even if the outside is sitting still, the heart is trembling.

Can't stand it. Sit and shake your legs and bite your nails.

And often "jump off the wheel."

Attention to new stimuli all the time.

Finish the main task to do

And feel distracted inside.

The admin has summarized this chaos mechanism.

(Scroll through the illustration to understand the ADHD brain more clearly.)

An epilogue to those around you:

If someone close to you has these symptoms,

Do not scold or bother that he has not accomplished anything.

Because he also suffered and "wanted to finish."

Shaking his hand to a psychiatrist for medication and psychotherapy (CBT) is the best way to remove the hamster running in his head.

... Read moreโรคสมาธิสั้นในผู้ใหญ่ หรือ Adult ADHD นั้น ไม่ได้หมายความว่าคนที่เป็นขี้เกียจ หรือล้มเหลวในการทำงานและชีวิตประจำวัน แต่เป็นภาวะที่สมองทำงานแตกต่าง มีความวุ่นวายทางเคมีสมองที่ทำให้ผู้ป่วยรู้สึกเหมือนมี "หนูแฮมสเตอร์" วิ่งไม่หยุดในหัวตลอดเวลา นั่นทำให้เกิดอาการกระวนกระวายใจอย่างต่อเนื่อง แม้จะนั่งนิ่งอยู่ก็ตาม จากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัวของหลายคนที่เป็น Adult ADHD จะพบว่าการเริ่มทำงานเป็นเรื่องยาก เพราะสมองเหมือนมีผู้จัดการงานที่ทำหน้าที่จัดลำดับงานเกิดปัญหา (Executive Dysfunction) ส่งผลให้เกิดการผลัดวันประกันพรุ่งอย่างมาก นอกจากนี้ยังมีอาการวอกแวกง่ายเหมือนเปิดบราวเซอร์หลายแท็บพร้อมกัน จนนำไปสู่การลืมของใช้หรือสิ่งที่ต้องทำ รวมถึงความไม่สงบนิ่งภายใน (Inner Restlessness) ที่ทำให้ต้องนั่งเขย่าขาหรือกัดเล็บเพื่อผ่อนคลายความตึงเครียด สิ่งสำคัญคือการเรียนรู้ที่จะเข้าใจตัวเองและยอมรับว่าภาวะนี้ไม่ใช่อุปนิสัยที่ผิด แต่เป็นเรื่องความเปลี่ยนแปลงของเคมีสมองที่ต้องการการช่วยเหลือ ทั้งการรักษาด้วยยาที่จิตแพทย์แนะนำ และการทำ Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) ซึ่งเป็นการบำบัดเพื่อช่วยปรับพฤติกรรมและฝึกจัดการสมาธิอย่างเป็นระบบ การสนับสนุนจากครอบครัวและเพื่อนฝูงก็มีความสำคัญ พยายามไม่ดุด่าว่ากล่าวหรือเอาความล้มเหลวมาตำหนิ เพราะผู้ป่วยเองก็รู้สึกทรมานและต้องการทำสิ่งต่างๆ ให้สำเร็จอย่างมาก แต่สมองกลับมีอุปสรรคทางการทำงานภายใน สำหรับคนที่สงสัยว่าตนเองหรือคนใกล้ชิดอาจมีอาการเหล่านี้ การขอคำปรึกษาจากจิตแพทย์หรือนักจิตวิทยาคลินิกเพื่อรับการประเมินอย่างละเอียดเป็นก้าวแรกที่สำคัญ เพื่อจะได้วางแผนการช่วยเหลือที่เหมาะสมอย่างแท้จริง และให้ผู้ป่วยได้กลับมามีคุณภาพชีวิตที่ดีขึ้นอย่างเป็นรูปธรรม การมีความรู้และความเข้าใจเกี่ยวกับ Adult ADHD จะช่วยให้เราเห็นภาพและมองเห็นโรคนี้ในมุมที่ไม่ตัดสินหรือวิจารณ์ แต่เข้าใจความยากลำบากที่คนเหล่านี้เผชิญอยู่จริง ๆ อย่างอ่อนโยนและให้การช่วยเหลือที่ถูกวิธี
