Your mistake was saying it was a superb bowl rather than a super bowl!

I dunno, this guy is pretty annoying as well!

Serious answer: No. If you have ADHD, you have always had ADHD.

But some ADHD symptoms can be experienced without having ADHD. ADHD is identified by a bunch of symptoms and, importantly, the degree to which they affect one's life.

But anxiety and depression are common causes of some ADHD-like symptoms. My bestie suffers from anxiety and absolutely has some ADHD-like symptoms. But doesn't have others.

And neurotypical folks often have some ADHD-like symptoms, but it's to the degree that it impacts them and/or it could come from a different cause. Or some folks find out later in life they have ADHD. (I was 30 - same for my wife, who found out at 50 she was actually AuDHD)

I may have said it was a super bowl. I don't remember for sure. heh.

Or they rephrase it like I didn't get it.

No. It's just I didn't hear the last bit.

I checked the rules, and it says

Posts must be about owls.

So even "super bowl" wouldn't have saved you. Perhaps a bowl with owls printed on it? It doesn't say it can't be about depictions of owls!

IIRC, it didn't say that when I posted, which was quite a while ago. Or I missed it, but I think I remember checking. :)

Yeah, just say it.

This is me, but I'm also the one who takes forever to form a sentence

Thus, I appreciate it when someone finishes my sentences for me XD

If you still have the picture, I think the fediverse equivalent would get the joke XD

Funny enough, some of this behavior is similar to normal Japanese conversations where everything is implied. XD. The other person is supposed to guess.

I'll have to keep my eye out. heh. I probably do have the picture somewhere, buried in many years of such pictures. lol.

Wow, thanks for the input!

And yet, 60% of the times, my partner is wrong, because I haven't finished talking. She looses focus because she thinks she knows, then interrupts, with a misunderstanding and then continues as if nothing has happened.

Especially when you imply what part you missed in the question. Like if I asked "That last... what?", to which you could just say "3 words", but instead start "I don't have ADHD, but I...". Then, once you finally get to the "3 words", you mumble it in the exact same way... Gah

As an ADHD person you have always the feeling that you yourself are speaking way to slow, because your brain is working double the speed and your lips can't keep up. Therefore you lose track of a thought so often. You still trying to speak out a sentence and your mind is already three sentences ahead.

And no, my wife is making more and longer pauses than other ppl. She is most of the time really tired. Therefore I'm putting in all my effort, even when my ears start smoking ;)

Yes, sometimes I need to be patient, even if I already know the rest. I try.

Other times people need to FINISH THEIR SENTENCE BEFORE I RETIRE!!!

You really want me to hear all of it? Then be more interesting, or at least faster! This is not always on me!

An ADHD friends don't let me finish. 2 time on 3 is wrong about what I was about to tell

You don't tho, and then you interrupt, and then I have to start over.

ADHD isn't a super power. You can't read minds.

Yeah I definitely have these tendencies and had to really work to stop interrupting. Sometimes the end is what I expected, and sometimes it’s quite a surprise. I can totally see why it would annoy someone to have a person finish their sentence, and incorrectly at that.

I do feel that my social interactions are much improved as I’ve gotten better with impulse control

You assume they don't know all of you based on preconceived notions.

Its like talking to a stupid AI. (When someone finishes my sentence but incorrectly) So frustrating. And the other thing that happens is I'm so astounded at the interruption I forget what I was getting at. My brain does not prioritize speed (I'm slow to process/respond sometimes) so I just can't even do these kinds of conversations. I'm giving up, my contribution is clearly not needed for your conversation with yourself (I don't mean YOU, I mean the theoretical person)

Anyway, ty for working on improving it, I know it's an effort!

You assumed wrong ... again.

The only thing you are doing is proving their point.

You understand less from the sentence being said than you think. You only assume you were correct because you also listened with half an ear to their explanation.

TLDR

You've misunderstood. I'm still listening, I'm just frustrated.

Good, next time don't pretend not understand me if I use slightly wrong terminology.

Well yeah but once I've made up my mind on the rest of your sentence, it's not like I'm going to process your version in my head anyway

My wife always predicts the worst possible outcome of what I'm saying and starts to say how bad it is. I have to stop her without losing my temper because it's so aggravating

I spend to much time with fellow neurodivergent people, so now i confuse neurotypicals when i don't finish my sentences or start talking in keywords, to bring my point across without wasting time.

Both my wife and I do this to each other all the time. While we both do it, we still get annoyed when the other is doing it, because we are only right 60 % of the time or less.
