I have trouble with BFD cubing too much wanting to solve and not enough wanting to remember where they go, but speed cubing it's actually somewhat of a plus. A.D.D. your mind works faster than your body can, so in theory A.D.D. should help with look ahead and being able to recognize cases while performing other algs.

YES! I can't memo very well for BLD even with my pills.
@crispy. I have noticed that I can improve look ahead easily

Yeah look ahead is something that comes easier, but it's also very easy for me to get distracted while in a solve.

I have not been officially diagnosed with ADD but I also have problems with memo, just because I'm too impatient

Haha same with me. I've gotten past my troubles with some practice. When your memo is less than 70s on average, there's no need to be impatient.
Ville probably has super ADD, he can't even bother to focus more than 40 seconds on a whole solve.

all of the questions that are asked here now lead me to believe that a lot of people have ADD

I does
I fear blindsolving because I can only ever remember the edges...after that I kind of forget.

Most young people believe they have ADD. But if most have it, is it actually a problem? Or is it a natural part of being a human?
ADD = Laziness/impatience (most of the time)

I've got ADD but it doesn't effect my cubing. I have no trouble concentrating on things that I enjoy.

I haven't been diagnosed with ADD, but every guy on my Dad's side of our family has it for some reason, so yeah, I do have it.
