Sitting still and not being bored senseless. I was a hyperactive kid with adhd, having to sit anywhere for more than 10 minutes was the bane of my existence.

I don’t think my adhd ever came out as restlessness.

I always tried really hard to keep track of what was going on but the dumbest thing would cause me to zone out . When I was done zoning out I was so lost that I would just give up and continue daydreaming.

I don't know if my energy levels had anything to do with adhd or if it was just a unrelated companion, but I've always been that way. Sugar was banned in my house I think because my mother thought I'd implode if I got my mitts on any. I couldn't even sit long enough to watch a whole movie from start to finish until I was in my 30's.
