It's wild that there's so much more research and knowledge about the things my ADHD brain experienced growing up. I'm in my 30s now and don't daydream quite as much, but when I was a kid I would daydream for hours. Car rides I'd pretend I was a skater kid jumping over all the obstacles. I'd lie awake for hours at night daydreaming about my crush, going on dates, etc.
Of course I didn't know it was ADHD then, but man I sure feel validated.
