Happens way too often to me.

edit: I had no idea this was such a common issue!

I'm pretty sure I have undiagnosed inattentive type ADHD so this is the story of my life. One word could send my brain on a journey of other related things even while I'm still reading the words. I have to reread so much.

I have diagnosed adhd and this is very much my life. Audiobooks are the best! It still happens, but way way less

I wish I could do audiobooks. I don't know if it's my autism making it more difficult to process auditory information or what, but audiobooks are even more difficult for me. I love podcasts though, since that is just casual conversation and I never get too lost even if I zone out and miss something.

I've never been able to do audiobooks unless I'm reading along. Can't pay attention to spoken words. I used to hate when teachers would make students take turns reading passages aloud. I literally couldn't pay attention because they would read s o s l o w l y that my brain would have too much time to think between words.

I think you just unlocked a memory. It is so difficult for me to understand when people are talking too slow. I can't remember what words were at the beginning by the time we get to the end. I always have to watch everything with subtitles.
