Day care is causing the ADHD epidemic.
That’s the provocative take from psychotherapist Erica Komisar on John Anderson’s podcast. She argues that putting very young babies into long hours of daycare creates chronic stress that flips the brain’s stress switch (the amygdala) on way too early.
It goes into hypervigilant mode, eventually burns out, and leaves kids in a constant low-level fight-or-flight state, which gets labeled as ADHD.
She says there’s no strong genetic cause for ADHD. It’s largely a response to the environment we’re putting kids in.
This one really made me pause. We’re wiring tiny brains for survival mode before they’ve even had a chance to develop properly.
If much of the ADHD explosion is coming from early chronic stress and separation, then rethinking daycare norms and early childcare could dramatically improve kids’ mental health long-term.
What’s your experience or observation, do you think modern daycare schedules are contributing to rising ADHD rates?
@BulbaSalim Halo, salam kenal. Kebetulan saya bisa Bahasa Inggris dan sedikit bisa Bahasa Jepang, dan juga lulusan jurusan arsitektur. Kalau tertarik, prosedurnya bagaimana ya? Semoga berkenan memberi arahannya ✨✨✨
Namanya Kukaku seiri (区画整理), pernah diusulkan Jepang tahun 1983 untuk menata Manggarai & Kebon Melati.
Kampung ditata jadi hunian midrise 5–8 lantai. Lahan sisanya untuk taman, sekolah, dan ruang komersial.
Semua terintegrasi stasiun. TOD beneran. 40 tahun lalu.

@elisa_jkt Temen orang Amerika culture shock karena harus jemur baju pas tinggal di Jepang, mungkin karena mereka terbiasa pake dryer jadinya ada pikiran kalau jemuran itu bikin kumuh. Apa iya ini pikiran Amerika-sentris? 🤔
Is there any petition to bring back eat-in areas in convenience stores in Japan? If you don’t have a car to eat in, the only options I see to eat immediately are to either eat standing outside or in the aisles in the sights of the staff 🤷🏻♀️
#Papua will lose 4.5 million hectares (13% of its total forest area) by 2036 if it follows the same path as #Kalimantan. Video narrated by @birdsoftheworld, animations by @422South based on our paper: https://t.co/TPCyK4HzYv. Full video: here: https://t.co/hxxuQ1qeJi
This breaks my heart. Food estate development in Merauke Papua does not need to destroy forests. We need biodiversity to support resilient food systems, to help mitigate pests and diseases, and the impacts of climate change. Forests and biodiversity must be protected in food estate development, for example by adopting mosaic plantation management. https://t.co/OMUKixT4qQ
