  • Also, I think it’s probably more the oxygen deprivation that is relevant in my case. Sleep apnea refers to just stopping breathing while sleeping, which may or may not result in a significant decrease in blood oxygen saturation. In my case, it was causing a big drop in blood oxygen saturation and I suspect this was the case for decades. Once that was corrected, I found it much easier to be “productive” in the narrow sense that normies use that word.

But if you view it as a set of symptoms that may have multiple causes, then we could conclude that I had a different form of ADHD than the one you describe. Regardless, I had the lived experience of someone with ADHD for a very long time. I’ll also note that ADHD was not a diagnosis that existed yet when I was a child.
