Hold the fuck up. This is what everyone experiences, right? It’s not a sign of ADHD, is it? What the hell?! JFC social media is how I learned I have total aphantasia and I’m not ready for this.
I’ve read before that there is a lot of overlap with aphantasia and ADHD. I also have aphantasia, and am pretty sure I have ADHD as well, so there’s another +1 for that theory, I suppose.
It’s becoming one of those things where more and more people have some bits and pieces from the spectrum. I’m convinced that a big contributor is how stupidly fast-paced our society is, and the amount of information we are expected to constantly be processing.
The massive flood of information and things to remember/learn/stay on top of absolutely makes the symptoms mkre apparent and the effects more frustrating.

Not sure what prompted it, but I have you tagged as my favorite fediverson for brilliance, kindness, and humor.

Also, society doesn’t just sweep any neuro divergent condition under the rug of “let’s cure it with lobotomies”
I wonder about this as well
