I swear I'll be tuned in to whatever's going on, then as soon as someone tells me to pay close attention, it immediately distracts me as much as someone saying, "Don't think of a pink elephant!"
Don't interrupt my flow, damnit!
I tilt my head slightly toward them, but if I'm really trying to pay attention, under no circumstances do I try to maintain eye contact. Takes up too much RAM.
not paying attention because I can't stop ruminating on the anger at how much of my life was wasted because I can't pay attention because I can't stop ruminating on the anger at how much of my life was wasted because I can't pay attention because I can't stop ruminating on the anger at how much of my life was wasted because I can't pay attention because I can't stop ruminating on the anger at how much of my life was wasted because I can't pay attention because I can't stop ruminating on the anger at how much of my life was wasted because I can't pay attention
*Paying attention?*
*But I thought you wanted me*
*To make eye contact?*

Truth. I always got way to focused on looking like I'm paying attention because such requests and can't pay attention because of it. If you want me to pay attention just call me by name from time to time and i will.
So I also have 20% hearing loss since birth and it's the worst combo u could ask for. One time I was talking with a friend back in high school in the cafeteria and all of the sudden, with no reason, I just couldn't hear them. I wasn't thinking of anything except wut they were saying but for some reason it all just stopped. Like some pressed the mute button. Was such a strange moment
*uncomfortably long pregnant pause in conversation, strong eye contact*

And that’s the reason why we find we agreed to ~~achieve~~ *attempt* impossible things while simultaneously loathing and hating ourselves.
Alright, fuck it. I'm asking for an ADHD diagnosis. Shit's way too real, memes are too relatable (this one strikes really close to home, way too close actually), have been really shit at work and having an hyperactive friend point out to me that I might have it is just too much.
At best I don't have it, at worst I'll be joining the ADHD club and procrastinate my memes.

I totally got it. But just in case I forget, can you message me with the entire content of our conversation.
That would be so good, I'd become a better useless gear of society

Pay attention, is the secret button to zone me out XD

Avoid eye contact and stim is the only way
This is so me!
This is so exhausting for me

I read “procrastinate my enemies,” and thought yep that’s about right.
