I wrote out a whole response about how I've suspected that I might have slight adhd for a while now but I didn't feel I could word it right so I deleted the whole thing and posted this instead. :)

You going to go see a doctor about it? Or do you find it's not really interfering with things for you?

I don't think it's serious enough to warrant medication. I think I just need to set limits and rules for myself... Well idk. Like trying to explain exactly what is wrong is difficult for me. I just can't seem to find the words that explain the problem exactly how I want. I almost gave up writing this post like 3 different times.

I've noticed that social media and it's bite-size presented material is something that I lose myself in. I scroll through instagram and will keep scrolling for long periods of time which initially makes it seem like I don't have a problem with staying focused on something. In reality, I think it's because it's such a constant stream of bite size pieces of information that it plays right into the fact that I can't focus on one thing for too long. I can't start movies on Netflix because I just end up looking through what is available until I just give up on it all. I barely play games anymore because as soon as I start one, I'll decide I don't want to play anymore. I feel like I speak too fast sometimes because my words can't keep up with my mind. I used to think I just had anxiety but I feel like it might just be related to add because my mind is always racing.

Oh hey that whole last paragraph pretty much came as one stream of thought. Lol
