      ((((Who in their right mind would have the sheer audacity and tenacity to be calling me during Movie Night? Oh, wait . . . it’s that one, again. Haven’t I told her the alimony is suspended until she learns how to act right? Grrrrrrr.))))



    *Tap “Block Caller.”


    ((((Finally, some peace and quiet!))))

    i started taking Adderall in 5th grade so you can see my attention span has been dead for a long time.

  • Okay, you win. I had my attention span until November 14th 2019 or somewhere around there.

    It depends on a variety of factors, but yes. I've noticed it's worsened significantly since I got a "smart" phone around 10 years ago. I've also realized that I've always had some neuro-atypical 'spectrum' type sensory and processing variances that aren't necessarily that uncommon. Classifying people by their disorders isn't all that useful. Accepting people for who they are and helping them navigate is. Wait... what was this question about?

    LOL!
