@BabaD I don’t have a problem with the term deficiency either. It’s just so much more than a deficit of attention.
@Larynxa EFD: That’s kind of what I had in mind (no offense BabaD)
Two other options:
Genetic Neural Activation Disorder
or
Brain Neurotransmitter Deficiency,
At least when I say this or something similar to people, all they can do is nod their heads and pretend like they know what I’m talking about (I’ve had people do this, actually) or ask “what the h__l is that?”
They are then free of the usual preconceptions about what I identified as my “problem”.
