I am interested in what is generally known as ADHD. My generally known should not be taken as dismissive, but rather as cautionary towards a term that has come to mean a lot of things in broader culture.

I'll come to this, later, but here are a few knots I've yet to tie:

a description of reading on the Internet seems similar to moderate ADHD symptoms
a possible relationship between multitasking and adhd-like symptoms
an overtaxed brain might behave akin to the ADD brain
feelings at the end of a day
psychological flexibility allows for better attention
Scattered Minds
the role of attention in health
the working memory overload; a book vs. the internet in a nice bathtub metaphor
what a bad ADHD day feels like
