ADHD Attention

We've all heard of being a 'dreamer' and the term gets thrown around quite often. We've heard people's different dreamer dreams they feel they will never achieve but love to talk about it.  "Oh I'd love to <DREAM> one day, but that's <EXCUSE>! What's your dream?

So this post will not be so much a discussion ABOUT the topic of ADHD, rather it is more of an example. In the post on overthinking, I tried to give some context on how seemingly trivial things will get stuck in my head and distract me from more important thoughts.
