[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 129652, member: 3907"] Meowbunny describes it to a T. When I clean my house, I go through the same steps, practically in the same order. When I need to concentrate on something, I need to provide myself with a distraction so that my brain can fight against the distraction, which then allows me to concentrate. It's almost as though, by having something to tune out the ADHD part of my brain has something to do, leaving the rest of me free to concentrate. I have elaborate, almost ritualistic systems for organizing things. However I'm also Aspie-light, so that might relate more to autism traits than ADHD traits. It's all jumbled together. There was a thread several months ago about Adult ADHD. I can't remember off-hand, but I will poke around in the archive and see if I can find it. Sorry this is a bit disjointed. I guess it's to be expected. Trinity [/QUOTE]
