    Surprise! My mom does this too, and the frustrating part is that she’s wrong about the second half of my sentence a LOT of the time. It ends up being rude and makes the conversation even longer because I have to waste additional time going, “No, I was going to say…” instead of simply finishing the sentence and continuing on.

    So congratulations. You’re playing yourself. (I also have ADHD.)

      So you have ADHD, but when you start a sentence you already know how it’s going to end? How do you do that?

        Honestly, there are times after my meds wear off that I have literally forgotten what I was going to say halfway through the sentence. Lol

        Personally I do it by my brain always being like thirty seconds in front of my mouth. Sometimes I wish I could open my mouth and just yell in white noise that somehow conveys the totality of what I’m thinking.
