Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) view from inside

ADHD[1] (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) by Richard Guimond ©2015

 

My mind runs so fast that I want to finish before starting

As you evoqued a topic I already digressed on it, what's next?

No enough time to express myself without interruption

As you talk I need to notify, to confirm, to object

As I talk , simultaneously I think ahead on another channel

When I listen, simultaneously I think on several channels

I listen as I fast read grasping  the main idea  right away

Like Chinese ideogram other words superfluous to your narration

What, you are still there? I digressed, three topics ago

Not my fault, if you're so slow and can't follow my flow

[1] Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are terms used to describe pa tterns of behaviour that appear most often in school-aged children. Children with these disorders are inattentive, overly impulsive and, in the case of ADHD, hyperactive. They have difficulty sitting still or attending to one thing for a long period of time, and may seem overactive. https://www.cmha.ca/mental-health/understanding-mental-illness/attention-deficit-disorders/

The same with some  adult... like Me!

I get this, as an Asperger's man i can take in some of the aspects of ADHD although my condition has lessened with time and i'm nearly normal now hahahaha sorry Richard just had to get a dig in at those who told me what a weirdo i was, mind you when talking i still change subject in mid-stream leaving people wondering what happened there? lol The obsessive compulsive thing is a real pain in the a*s though, thanks for this excellent writing :)
