ADHD is a very real disorder that stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. People with this disorder tend to have difficulty focusing on a certain task and sitting still. Don't mistake them for being dumb though, in fact it's quite the opposite. Their thoughts tend to wander off, but it allows them to have an easier grasp at understanding a topic at different angles and allows them to question it deeper. Their thoughts just sometimes wander a bit TOO far off, giving their own little world. They can definitely do the task at hand, they understand it perfectly, they just tend to get distracted. Think of it this way. A normal person's mind is a dimly lit room, with a single flashing light telling them where to go. People with ADHD, however, have a mind filled with flashing lights, all telling them that each and every one of them are important. The person with ADHD can see the brightest light, and know that it's the one they must go to, but it's hard to tell with all the flashing beams because they all collide with the main one. Sometimes they think that they're following the right light, but realize later that they are off task and that they must get to the one that shines the brightest.
