I don't have ADHD. I have Asperger's. I can focus on one thing as long as it takes. I have a couple of subjects that I know way more about than the average person. I can remember anything I want to. I can ingest tons of information, and my brain can sort through it all and come to correct conclusions.

On the other hand, I can't read people and I can't see from their point of view. I absolutely cannot "feel your pain" like Clinton claimed. I can't tell if they're bored, and I should stop talking.

On the chans, the anons similar to me are what is termed "weaponized autism." We're the ones who can take a random photograph and figure out the GPS coordinates based on what can be seen in the photo. We can go through tens of thousands of pages of material and find what's immediately relevant.

I always thought ADHD was just a way to get drugs into kids who hate to stay in their chairs at school. Because of drug use and perhaps stuff in our food, these things, as well as allergies, are very common today. When I was in 1st grade, there was one boy that had trouble staying seated. He was the only in the entire school. Also, I never knew a single kid in school that had any food allergies. We all ate in the cafeteria, and everyone ate the same food.

I get overloaded by sensory inputs. It took me a while to get used to the noise and talking at family reunions. I became the expert that people wanted to talk to, so I could talk to someone and shut out everything else.

I believe I could function in an emergency, as blood doesn't bother me as long as it isn't mine. :)

I have a low "give a shit" factor, so a lot of things don't bother me.

I wish people in the 50s and 60s in education had known about Asperger's so I could have gotten help.
