Another ADD personality here...
*Sometimes I can't hold my attention to something more than 20 seconds, if that. One idea latches on to another, for example, if someone mentions it's cold outside, I think of ice cream because it's cold, I think of trucks because ice cream is often sold from there, *look a bird*, I think of that hot guy who works at Baskin Robbins, I think of cookie dough ice cream, then I think of cookies itself, *look a bird*, then I think about baking some later on, then I remember I better study instead, *look a bird*...............
*Other times I "hyperfocus", I can pay attention to one single thing for hours and hours. I'm unable to shift it to something else.
*Needs some sort of physical or mental stimulation or I'll fall asleep.
