So, obviously adhd affects memory, but one thing I’ve noticed is that my visual memory surprisingly good for someone with adhd, however, can’t say the same for my other memory’s. I can almost instantly recognize where we‘re going on a family trip, places I haven’t been to in years, and even random rooms from my old middle school. the list goes on and on lol. Idk if it’s because I had a connection to those places or my brain just liked those places, but it’s really interesting. If I was gonna guess I’d probably say that it has something to do with my repetitive style learning. I can barely memorize things on the first try and it may take me forever but bring out flash cards and vualla, I have (almost) every capital memorized. The more I go to places the more I start to recognize the lay out. I’ve also realized I’m really good with directions because of this. Im really curious, do any of you relate?
