I know this is a common experience with ADHD, but somehow I’m the opposite. Visual media makes me hyper focus. As a kid, I was usually the only one still awake at the end of a late night movie. If there’s a tv on and someone is trying to talk to me, it takes a lot of effort to focus on what’s being said to me. I can’t put things on in the background unless it’s just music. Does anyone else experience this?
