An image that humorously contrasts the thought process of a non-ADHD brain versus an ADHD brain when tasked with thinking of a tiger. On the left, under the label “non-ADHD brain,” there’s a simple, clear image of a tiger. This represents the straightforward focus of a non-ADHD individual, where the task is completed without additional distractions. On the right, under the label “ADHDer,” a chaotic collage of overlapping images and text surrounds the idea of a tiger. These include “Tiger’s Eye Crystals,” the Eye of the Tiger album cover, “Is a liger a real animal?,” Tiger Beat magazine covers, a San Diego Zoo reference, a White Noise label, and an image of Beyoncé’s Single Ladies dance. This side humorously depicts how an ADHD brain leaps between tangentially related thoughts, associations, and distractions, creating a whirlwind of ideas instead of a singular focus. The visual chaos emphasizes the difficulty of staying on task for someone with ADHD.
