1
There's no proof whatsoever that medications help anybody heal from ADHD.
2
Financial stress on the parents translates into physiological stress in the children.
3
Poor kids are much more likely to be diagnosed with ADHD.
4
I'm telling you, if your friend's got ADHD, I can tell you hate the stress to relieve you for your life.
5
One of the really interesting things I wanted to talk to you about is ADHD.
6
I've had a few of my friends in my close friendship circle diagnosed with ADHD recently.
7
And then I looked into some of the statistics around ADHD.
8
I found this statistic that said in the 1980s, one in 20 US children were diagnosed with ADHD.
9
Today, the number is roughly one in nine.
10
And just generally, you know, around me, it feels like, and this could just be because of my own little narrow circle, or it could be because of a wider thing happening in society.
11
It feels like there's been an increase in diagnosis of mental illness and things like ADHD and the causes...
12
When I spoke to my friend about what he believed the cause of his ADHD was, was and he's posted this on linkedin
13
and talks about it very publicly now um it seemed to
14
point to he seemed to believe it was relating to some kind of genetic or heritable um factor yeah now
15
The issue that I've sort of been contending with myself
16
and why I spoke to Johan Hari about this and others about this is if I am to accept that, then I feel like I'm accepting that...
17
We're being born...
18
somewhat broken.
19
And this is almost what Johan Hari talked about in the early stages of his teenage years, where he was made to believe that there was this chemical imbalance in his brain, and therefore he was born broken,
20
and here's the medication to solve it.
21
so but i don't want i don't believe
22
that i don't i don't personally believe that we're we're born broken well um anybody interested in the subject
23
might do what I think Johan actually did is to read my book on ADHD, it's called Scattered Minds.
24
And I was diagnosed within my 50s and so were a couple of my kids.
25
But I never bought into the idea that this is a genetic disease or that it's a disease at all, genetic or otherwise.
26
Now, as for the rising number of...
27
people being diagnosed with it, there could be two reasons at least.
28
One is we're better at diagnosis, so before we wouldn't have noticed it but now we are.
29
Or genuinely there's more people who are having trouble in certain ways such as with attention and impulse control and so on.
30
But either way, the fact is that many more children are being diagnosed and medicated.
31
for this condition, particularly in the US, but also increasingly here in the UK as well, and in China and elsewhere.
32
As I said earlier, if we...
33
The fact is, here's the actual reality.
34
Nobody's ever found a gene for ADHD.
35
Nobody has ever found a gene that says, "If you have this gene, you're going to have ADHD." No such gene has ever been found.
36
No group of genes has ever been found that says, "If you're going to have this gene, you're going to have this condition." Nor ever will be.
37
And no such gene or group of genes have ever been found that if you don't have these genes, you will not have the condition.
38
Now there are some diseases that are genetic, one runs in my family, muscular dystrophy.
39
If you have the gene you're going to have the disease.
40
My mother had it, my aunt had it.
41
That's the genetic condition and if you have the gene you'll have the disease.
42
I think.
43
Very rare.
44
Those kind of diseases.
45
I No...
46
There are some genes that the more of them you have...
47
the more likely you are to have any number of mental health diagnoses, ADHD, depression, anxiety, even psychosis, bipolar illness.
48
But there's no group of genes or set of genes or gene that themselves determine any one condition.
49
As a matter of fact, you can have those same genes and not have any condition whatsoever.
50
So something is being passed on but it's not any kind of condition that's being passed on.
51
What's being passed on is sensitivity and the more sensitive you are, the more you're going to feel whatever's going on in the environment.
52
So you take the same sensitive care with these genes that confer greater sensitivity out of them, and sensitive means...
53
to feel from the Latin word to feel sincere.
54
The more sensitive you are, the more you're going to feel.
55
The more you feel, the more bad stuff happens, the more pain you're going to be in.
56
and the more compensating you're going to have to do.
57
At the same time with those same genes, if you treat it well and you grow up in a healthy environment, you'd just be creative and happy and joyful and a leader
58
or an artist or a shaman or a very creative CEO or whatever you're going to be.
59
So the genes don't determine, they make you more sensitive to their environment.
60
Now, if you go back to what I said about the tuning out, it's simply a defense.
61
So the more sensitive you are, and the stress in the environment, the more you're gonna feel the stress, the more you're gonna need to escape from it by tuning out.
62
So, you didn't inherit ADHD, you inherited a sensitivity that makes it more likely,
63
under stressful circumstances, that you revert to tuning out when your brain is developing.
64
which by the way is an organ that develops physiologically under the impact of the emotional environment.
65
So, if there's a lot of stress in a child's life, and what I'm saying is in this society, is that more and more parents are stressed, not because they don't love their kids,
66
not because they're not doing their very utmost to provide for them, but because they're more stressed for all kinds of social, political, economic reasons.
67
I mean, if you look at inflation in Britain, which is a high risk right now, more people are going to be stressed.
68
financially.
69
Financial stress on the parents translates into physiological stress in the children.
70
Those children may want to tune out because it's too much to be in the present.
71
Some of them will be diagnosed with ADHD.
72
They didn't inherit anything in terms of a disease, they're just reacting to the environment.
73
So if we're diagnosing more and more kids these days, I think it's because the parenting environment has become much more stressed.
74
And that's backed up in this book where you mentioned that study of 65 ,000 parents and their children with ADHD, right?
75
- You say-- - There's more trauma in their lives.
76
- Yeah, so the children, they do a study with 65 ,000.
77
- I forget, you're better than I am.
78
- It was 65 ,000.
79
I read it three hours ago.
80
- You made notes, I did.
81
Yeah, but many thousands of kids, yeah.
82
- So, 'cause I found that to be really, really sort of, supportive of what you just said, where, okay, saying this from memory,
83
but a study of 65 ,000 children and their parents, and they found
84
that those parents who had more adverse effects ...traumatic events in
85
their lives.. ended up having having a higher chance of having a child
86
that had adhd well look
87
if you look at um the united states at least poor kids
88
and kids of
89
so -called color are much more likely to be diagnosed with adhd interesting no why would
90
that be the case because they're living with so much more stress Men as well, right?
91
Men as well?
92
Adults you mean?
93
Men, yeah.
94
So I read that more men or more boys are diagnosed.
95
Yeah, more men are diagnosed partly because in men the symptom of hyperactivity seems to be there more often.
96
So when a kid is sitting in school and the cancer is still, that's obvious.
97
The teacher will notice it.
98
The girl who's kind of dreamy and tunes out, kind of fades away at the back of the class, she doesn't create any problems.
99
So they don't...
100
that's one of the reasons. But also...
101
Funny to say, but young boys, infant boys are more sensitive to environmental pressure than girls are. For some strange reason.
102
So they're more likely to be affected by these factors.
103
seeing a boy like that in the class, that's fidgety, that has a poor attention span, bad response to stress.
104
we medicate.
105
What is the impact of that approach to treatment?
106
Medicating super early.
107
I used to when I worked with a physician, I would certainly prescribe medication sometimes.
108
It's a question of who's prescribing it and with what intention.
109
If I understand that the real problem in this child is not that there's anything intrinsically wrong with the child, but that they were developed in a stressed environment.
110
And those stresses are still acting on them.
111
And one of the stresses is the parents don't understand the kids' behaviors.
112
and they tend to react rather harshly.
113
than if I can help the parent understand the sensitive nature of their child.
114
which also means that when positive changes occur in the environment, the kid will be very responsive to that as well.
115
If the parents can create a positive, accepting, understanding atmosphere in the home, and work on their own stresses, so they don't unconsciously pass them on to their kids,
116
that kid will change very quickly.
117
And I say, well, if in the short term the child wants the medication to function better, and no child should be forced to take medication,
118
and medication are never the final answer, at the very most they're a stop gap.
119
There's no proof whatsoever that medications help anybody heal from ADHD.
120
They simply suppress symptoms which may be helpful in the short term, but for God's sake, go to work on the long -term development of that child.
121
And what does that mean?
122
Create the conditions in which healthy development takes place.
123
That child will do very, very well.
124
If you think the problem is a disease that you're just going to medicate away the symptoms of, What about for adults?
125
I'm thinking of my friend there.
126
He's in his 30s and he got the diagnosis of ADHD in his 30s.
127
He's been given this medication, which he presumably has to take for life.
128
He's told me the medication has helped him focus.
129
Has helped him focus.
130
Has helped him focus.
131
It's been a game changer, Steve.
132
Yeah, yeah.
133
I've taken medication myself, ADHD, and it helped me focus.
134
It helped me write my first book.
135
I didn't take it for this one.
136
As a matter of fact, more recently when I was beginning to write the medication, I thought maybe I would take a bit of stimulant like I used to
137
and just to see if it helps me write the book better.
138
All it did is give me side effects.
139
My brain has changed.
140
I don't need it anymore.
141
So I would say to your friend, if the medication is helping you right now, and it's not causing you side effects, I got nothing against it. And...
142
you might want to give it a break every weekend.
143
You might want to use it for when you're having to work or having to really concentrate, but it's up to you if it helps you function.
144
take it but go to work on the traumas and stresses that are driving your ADHD going back to your childhood
145
and you know I may say in my book on ADHD, Scattered Minds does outline some ways to do that.
146
You might find that you don't need the medication so much anymore or not at all perhaps.
147
Number one, number two, even if you do, your life will be so much fuller and so much less stressed,
148
if you deal with the underlying factors than if you simply medicate the symptom.
149
Like I'm telling you, if your friend's got ADHD, I can tell you he had to stress early for years.
150
and his parents were stressed.
151
So deal with that.
152
Deal with what conditions are you creating now in your life that create more stress for you.
153
Yeah.
154
Are you taking care of your body?
155
Are you exercising?
156
Are you eating well?
157
Do you get out there in nature?
158
Nature has a sign of harmony to it which actually calms the mind.
159
So, are you doing all these things?
160
If you're not, all you're doing is medicating a symptom.
161
If you are taking the medication specifically to help you focus, but you're working on these other issues,
162
You'll have a much fuller life and you may find you don't need the medication after all.

Контекст и фон разговора
В видео обсуждение с мировым известным врачом Габором Матэ посвящено АДГ (синдрому дефицита внимания с гиперактивностью). Матэ критикует распространенные мифы о генетической природе заболевания, подчеркивая, что генов, определяющих АДГ, не обнаружено. Он также отмечает рост диагностик в последние десятилетия и связывает это с социальными факторами, а не биологическими. Диалог ярко иллюстрирует современные дискуссии о психическом здоровье, что делает его отличным материалом для практики аудирования и речи.
5 ключевых фраз для повседневной коммуникации
- "There's no proof whatsoever" — "Нет никаких доказательств". Удобно для выражения сомнения в утверждениях.
- "Financial stress translates into" — "Финансовый стресс переходит в". Полезно для описания последствий стресса.
- "I never bought into the idea" — "Я никогда не верил в эту идею". Выражает неуверенность в чьих-то мнениях.
- "Something is being passed on" — "Что-то передается". Подходит для обсуждения наследственных факторов.
- "Rising number of" — "Рост количества". Используется для описания тенденций.
Пошаговое руководство по shadow speech
Shadowing (или "тень speech") — эффективная техника для улучшения произношения и интонации. Вот как работать с этим видео:
- Послушайте фрагмент 2-3 раза. Сосредоточьтесь на ритме и ударениях. Матэ говорит медленно, с логическими паузами — это облегчает воспроизведение.
- Повторяйте сразу за говорящим. Не останавливайтесь на ошибках. Цель — синхронизировать свою речь с его темпом. Это тренирует реакцию и память.
- Анализируйте интонацию. Обратите внимание на повышение тона в вопросах и его понижение в утверждениях. Например, фраза "Nor ever will be" произносится с сильным ударением на "ever".
- Используйте shadowing site. Найдите платформу, где можно замедлить аудио. Это поможет освоить сложные конструкции, например, "No such gene or group of genes has ever been found".
- Запишите себя и сравните с оригиналом. Обратите внимание на разницу в произношении слов like "diagnosed" или "genetic".
Регулярная практика shadow speak поможет вам чувствовать себя увереннее в разговорах на английском, даже при обсуждении сложных тем.
Грамматика в этом видео
Конструкции, которые говорящий использует чаще всего, с точными словами из видео:
| Конструкция | В видео |
|---|---|
| Условные предложения if + предложение, will/would + глагол — условие и его результат | if you have the gene you'll have · if you do, your life will be |
| Present Perfect have/has + причастие прошедшего времени — прошлое действие, важное сейчас | has ever found · has ever been found · have ever been found |
| Пассивный залог be + причастие прошедшего времени — важно, что происходит, а не кто это делает | be diagnosed · were diagnosed · being born |
| Придаточные определительные who / which + предложение — уточнение о человеке или предмете | people who are · Britain, which is |
Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
