***I often wonder whether, if I didn't have such a detail-oriented job (I'm a research scientist), my somewhat nonlinear, often tangential, but sometimes insightful thinking would be an impediment.***
This is so great. It's like I've found my own species finally. I'm a problem-solver at work in implementing a new computer system. My boss does not understand how I have these leaps in logic where I will understand how something should work yet be unable to explain it in his step by step linear way of thinking. Luckily my boss has learned that using both ways of thinking as a team, we have become pretty effective. Which is why I love my underpaid job right now! My general practioner is handling my Effexor right now but I think I'm going to make an appt with a PDoc to explore the possibility of me having ADHD. My son is diagnosed with it and we are exactly alike.
Thanks for everyone's posts
