The AI generated images were an immediate turn-off to me as well. Whatever one thinks of the aesthetics, they're a huge signal that I'm looking at a product that's focused on monetizing me.

The overall design is unfocused and cluttered, just the exact thing I don't need as someone with ADHD.

I don't think I'd use this.

Not only that, but it would also raise significant concerns about how any of the recommendations, treatments, blog posts, etc are made. Like are the different people for those blog posts real people?

This is particularly concerning for a tool like this, you already took shortcuts on images why should we expect anything less for the rest of the app? Has anyone that knows anything about ADHD actually ever looked at anything this app is saying?

The blog is written by real people. So do the techniques. I'm just a bad designer so I decided to generate the pictures. But actually I have diagnosed ADHD myself and all the techniques are all I've collected all my life.

Be that as it may, it _does_ still raise questions about the content and sources. If you're a bad designer (I'm a pretty terrible artist/designer myself) then I urge you to source your images from someplace ethical. Try unsplash, or google free stock images, or go on fiverr and pay an artist who won't use AI (if you can find one? I haven't tried to user fiverr in a while)

Thank you. I didn't even know people were so negative about AI pictures.

I opened the first blog post and I’m fairly certain most of this post is generated by AI.

I’m not trying to be mean, but it makes it difficult to trust any content on this site.

It makes it impossible. The content gives off the feeling that it will "take" and grab more than it will "give" and release.

ADHD, to me, always, even before the diagnosis, felt like a valve that doesn't open for no reason and due to the build up pressure, some other valve with different "filters" releases whatever mixture of thoughts and actions to compensate.

Children's sugar-induced behavioral roller coasters have a similar characteristic. And this website looks like too much candy without there being any candy.

Sorry, I don't believe you. The way that the initial post has identical paragraph lengths with headers on every one is extremely uncanny. The prose is very dry, repetitive, often written in passive voice, and completely lacking in personality.

All the em-dashes here solidify this being written by LLMs: https://www.adhdhelp.app/en/blog/i-thought-it-was-just-me-th...

What? He should have paid an illustrator on top of doing everything else? I actually prefer AI art to be used, because more of the resources likely went to the essence of the product.
