    My brain is like a jujitsu master at avoiding work. I’ll be like OK we’ve got our green tea, no distractions, pomodoro is set, tasks clearly defined and workspace prepped for focus I am figuratively taking a running charge at my work annnnnd……wait why am I looking up how PS/2 ports work? Why are there 22 tabs on this open???

    It’s like my brain takes all my productive energy and redirects it to fun trivia or solving the wrong problems.

      Yes. ADHD means a lack of control over your attention. Having to wade against a current to stay on task, something NTs don‘t experience.
