Did anyone else have a weird experience with math? I could always do it in my head, really fast, get the answer, it’s correct… But then I couldn’t show my work or prove it, meaning it was useless. I’m curious if this is an ADHD thing? If so, does anyone know why?

    Your skill is useful in real life, it is only useless on exam settings.

    I can’t answer math in my head, if asked a numerical question I will forget the begging before you reach the end, I need to read it, and I need all in-front of me. Once I got that I can answer math questions, but only step by step, from school topics to higher education topics.

    However, I cannot calculate the change in the supermarket.
