@Lumooja: I think you've been programming for too long, time to get some fresh air ;)
ADHD for me is the inability to focus on even 1 task over a normal period of time. Memory is also shoddy, making it hard to remember things I did last week or even two days before. Names is very hard to remember.
I can start reading a book, and when I finish a page I don't know what I've been reading. My mind was drifting away while my eyes was scanning the lines. I try to read it again, but it happens over and over despite me being aware of it.
Then there's periods of hyperfocus. I've written whole games in a matter of days and then the next week struggle with simple OOP.
Btw, I believe the "men can do 1 thing, woman 2" is a myth until I see some real scientific proof ;) In my experience, its just something women have latched on to as a way of holding on to some kind of superiority in this male dominated society.
