‘I have a gambling problem’

‘The casino has lots of resources that can help problem gamblers’

Absolute madness.

For actual tips though, healthygamersgg on YouTube/Twitch is an excellent resource. He is a licensed therapist and has a ton of adhd videos and other topics.

This might be a personal issue, but to me the vibes feel off with him. I’m not against someone self promoting, it just seems like every video of his I’ve seen has him wedging his $75 guide and $600 “group coaching” into conversations whenever he can. I’m not saying he’s wrong about anything or that his videos aren’t useful, he just comes off as very used car salesman to me.

A lot of his approach seems to be based on vedic philosophy, and all that is available free if you don't want to go through him. You can walk into a temple and leave with free books because they believe knowledge should be free. All they ask is you pass the book on when you're finished.

I've got nothing against the guy though, I don't know enough about him, just pointing out that you can get the knowledge free if you want to.

Why is that wrong? He also has an insane amount of free content on YouTube.

It's not wrong but any time someone is giving advice and selling something at the same time, it calls into question their motives and integrity.

Just means we should be suspicious, that's all. Lots of scammers out there.

This is only the half of it. Dude spent years becoming a monk and learned a bunch of meditation techniques and practices that have been transformative for me. I've been looking at ADHD resources on YouTube for years and no one else I've seen there have the insights he does. I ended up purchasing his guide but just going through his YouTube catalog I'm still finding videos that are gold.

Wow, "have you tried surrendering your decision making to this algorithm?"

This is like telling a crack head that there is an awesome support group for addiction in this dilapidated crack house down the street.

I love "misinformation vortex". Too true

For someone who's suspicious. Any links or tips? The community page was thin as f.

It was a meme version of this article which caused me to seek a formal diagnosis.

I'm honestly amazed that I haven't succumbed and downloaded it.
