Hindsight is 20/20 cont'd

 I believe if ADD was diagnosable when I was young, I would be within its ranks.  I remember just out of high school explaining to someone how my thoughts worked.  "My brain is like a globe spinning quickly.  When an external speck touches the globe my thoughts are spun off tangentially and I quickly forget of what I spoke just seconds before."   In school I would constantly raise my hand to answer a question or raise a question only to forget the answer or question I so fervently wanted to share with the class.  I guess I have learned to work around my situation using notes, lists and reminders of all kinds.
