My limitless desire for information always gets hindered by my very limited memory.

There’s nothing like the ADHD experience of going to google something and immediately forgetting what you were going to search so you have to look through your recent apps to find whatever triggered the thought, but then get distracted in the apps, then just rinse and repeat.😩

    That’s the beautiful thing… you get to enjoy learning something then you’ll forget it and get to enjoy learning it again!

      A lot of the time, I start the re-learning process, only for my long-term memory to kick-in halfway through, and then I get annoyed because I “oh, I’ve read all of this before, it’s boring now”

        You know the next sentence, but you don’t understand the concept. You’re bored of the familiar text, so you skip a few sentences, find out they are completely foreign, go back, realize you forgot the context or to actually read so you end up re reading the whole paragraph. But this time, the effort to concentrate takes the soul out of your body. And that’s how you spend a full workday reading a one page document, while feeling burnt out.

        And I’m not working again…
