Have you ever been diagnosed with ADD/ADHD?


No, I can concentrate on jobs for very long periods, if anything it's the opposite problem. (Although, if you think about it the collateral effects are very similar.)


ADD/ADHD isn’t always that you can’t ignore distractions.

It’s sometimes that you can’t stop focusing on something, even if you want to, or need to for your own health (like drinking water, or getting up and walking around tk stretch).

Hyper focus is the term.
