Still i have some focus problems, but i know how to control myself, still has problems waiting for my turn, like in zoom calls, i am interrupting others middle of the conversations, most of the times i can control, some times i can not. Funny thing was, i did not know this is some condition, and accidentally discovered that i have ADHD(like at the age 30). Until then i was under the impression that focusing is this hard for everyone. I learnt that this could have been treated and i could have better childhood.</blockquote>
