@DogFather: I had to laugh when I read your story. It seems like a lot of us develop coping mechanisms to handle this, long before we’re diagnosed. Guess that means we’re resilient. Like you, I thought my struggle was just normal, and that everyone had the same issues. It sure surprised me when I found out differently.
My latest ADHD “glitch”: I bought some frozen items at the grocery store. Brought them in, and put them on the table, intending to put them in the freezer, but then lost focus. Some other shiny object got my attention or something. I have no idea what it was.
The next morning I found the now thawed groceries still sitting where I left them, so had to throw them out. *laughing* Oh well.
