or ADH-Wheee! if you really want to put a positive spin on it.
I think attention modulation disorder… I have the longest AND the shortest attention span ever. I might not finish typing this but also I’ll research black holes unblinkingly for 16 hours.
The biggest impact from my adhd is actually a shorter than average short term memory span. Mine was found to be about 8.5 second, with the average humans being 18.
My long term memory is fine, probably better than most but it’s getting stuff in there that’s the issue.
Edit: short not shirt
I hate it when I forget about my shirt
I like “Executive Function Disorder” as it actually describes the underlying issue and not just the symptoms that other people can see.
The problem is that there are many other mental disorders that have a profound effect on executive function as well
I was watching a video from dr berkely and he said its the only disorder that hits all factors of executive function.
Then he said adhd people can’t do digitspan backwards so e went to try it and I was like 😦
What’s a digitspan?
A test for working memory.
I don’t have ADHD and my upper limit for digits seems to be around 6.
It took a few tries, but if I memorize the numbers in chunks of 3, then 3, then 2 then it’s a lot easier.
Nah should be Dopamine attention variability executive disorder(I’m misremembering it I’m sure somehow). Otherwise known as DAVE
Cue the “God >!FUCKING!< DAMMIT DAVE” Audio lol
