I have become more aware of my behavior and it’s starting to worry me a little. Everyday that I’m walking I’ll have any random song in my head and I’ll quickly go with the beat using my fingers or teeth. I’m aware of it now and will stop it as soon as I’m aware of it. I stop this because it makes me lose focus of my surroundings. Many times I almost or do walk through a red light or miss a bus stop and that makes me late to work. What I don’t understand is my brain will make a very light note of a familiar object but make no connections to it. For example today I was thinking of something on the bus and I saw this poster for a restaurant that I always see when I get off my bus stop. When I was in my thinking I saw the poster and I kind of acknowledged it but didn’t think too much of it. Then 1 minutes later I was confused about where I was and I couldn’t believe for the maybe 5th time I missed the stop I always get off at. I was so confused and I walked in reverse and saw the poster my mind noted. I was so mad at myself for seeing it but not acknowledging it. Little things like this happen all the time everywhere I am. Sometimes I’ll see something random on the street and just think about it. But those thoughts become so stretched in my mind that it makes me forget where I was walking during that time I was thinking, it almost feels like a blackout. And if I’m sitting down watching a movie or sometimes when someone talks to me, my mind will wander somewhere else where I’m half focused on my thoughts and the other half on the person talking to me. There are a couple more things but this post is long already. Does this sound like ADHD?
