minus-squareMartineski@lemmy.dbzer0.comOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 years agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperfocus From section about ADHD: “These inattentive symptoms occur dually with what has been termed “hyperfocus” by the 2019 European Consensus Statement on Adult ADHD.” So I think it’s officially recognised? But name of that term sucks as much as “ADHD”. Both are very misleading.
