ADHD - notice only one order in disarray

I think I’ve discovered something—a new way to define ADHD.

It’s not in the textbooks or the medical journals… it’s right here, in the everyday chaos of modern life. Picture this: you’ve got seven or more tabs open on your computer screen. You bounce between them like a squirrel on espresso—starting a checkout, abandoning it mid-way, half-reading an article, clicking into a subscription form but never actually filling it out. Hours pass, and somehow, nothing gets done. That, my friends, is ADHD—digital edition—while firmly planted in a chair.

But then there are the other moments. The ones where there’s only one task at hand, and somehow, that’s even worse. You’re standing in front of the fridge, staring into the cold abyss for a good five minutes… with absolutely no memory of why you opened it. Names? I forget them instantly. Faces? Never. I can remember someone’s smile from a decade ago, but not the fact that I left my coffee in the microwave this morning.

And then there’s the fun twist that comes with age. People call it “the golden years,” but I’m still waiting for the glitter. It’s that moment when you’re telling a story and mid-sentence—poof—you forget where you were going with it. Why? Because somewhere between your brain and your mouth, a completely different thought crashed the party. Suddenly, I’m remembering something from ten years ago while trying to describe something from ten seconds ago.

Case in point: I was about to explain what happens when you mix forgetfulness with distraction… and instead I’m now thinking about the day my cook called out, and I took over the kitchen myself. Words might paint a thousand pictures, but that day my brain was juggling a thousand unfinished thoughts. I can still see the half-chopped vegetables, the soup that boiled over because I got sidetracked making coffee, and the fact that I still forgot the salt—twice.

So maybe ADHD isn’t always a diagnosis—it’s a lifestyle. A dance between tabs, thoughts, and half-remembered memories. And honestly? I’m starting to think the rest of the world might be catching up to me.
