Is this statement true for you? Can you think of any examples? Is it an easy or difficult question for you to answer?
You can take the full AQ-10 test here. Note this test is intended as a quick screener, and cannot diagnose or rule out any condition on its own.
Slightly agree. I also have ADHD. Sometimes I need to be multitasking for things to get done, e.g. exercise, cleaning, showering are basically impossible if I’m not streaming something or at least listening to music.
If I’m studying, I need zero distractions, and that includes music, even if it doesn’t have lyrics. I also tend to hyper focus on games, so holding conversations while playing is very difficult. If I’m staring at my phone, I’m probably too focused to even notice someone come in and start talking.
