Well of course this little vid has nothing to do with actual ADHD..
thats just the joke of it...
I do have mild ADHD - and, yes, given something I am intensely
interested in nothing can distract me - or at least that was so when I
was younger.
But all of us of a certain age or older have experienced at least some
version of what this film amusingly but accurately depicts.
No, I don't want any dope either :_)

Um, I've been meaning to watch this one since last week ... Just got to it. ;-)
Yeah, distraction and detours all day are a constant threat to getting
things done. But then there are days when you just don't care ...
Yep, I recognize that one, but just to see the positive side of it
my youngest was investigated for ADHD (and during the interviews
they almost gave me the same diagnosis),
but they found that he was simply a lot more intelligent than the rest
of the children.
He never needed to concentrate, so he never learned it. There are
statistics indicating a correlation between (wrong) ADHD diagnosis and
IQ. Give him a task he likes he can concentrate for hours, which is much
better than giving him medication to make him more "normal".
Seriously there is a lot of discussions about too medications for things that
are simply normal deviations in human behavior. Sometimes my wife think my
distractions are charming, sometimes not (and sometimes she is worse), but I
hope they don´t try to slow me down with medication. :-)
