@kc5jck: 
! I wonder if there’s a support group for that.
At times I thought maybe it was a guy thing, sort of in that old Mars-Venus way that guys supposedly talk primarily to give and receive information, while women talk for all sorts of reasons. It made a certain amount of sense that maybe the internal conversations work the same way. But then I’d always remember my brother (I strongly suspect he’s ADD as well) and how he clearly has all kinds of daydream-type thoughts going on.
My husband is also a very pragmatic guy from a very pragmatic family. I can’t picture any of them daydreaming about anything.
So I guess my question is: do non-ADDers daydream? Do ADDers daydream more frequently than non-ADDers? Do we daydream for longer periods of time? What, exactly, is the relationship between daydreaming and ADD? I realize it’s sometimes listed as a symptom but I’m curious to understand just how much, or how little, a non-ADDers mind might wander.
Especially when I see the ad on TV for eBay. There’s a guy watching a grade-school play, and all he can think about is getting new tires for his car, as evidenced by the fact that suddenly all the kids on stage are wearing tire costumes and the scenery morphs into
an engine….obviously if only ADD folks’ minds were capable of being elsewhere that ad wouldn’t pass the demographics test!
So maybe it’s true, hubby has Empty Mind Disorder!
