    Can we stop making every little thing about ADHD? This is just a common way to do arithmetic

      generation gap happening here. common core wasn't a thing for a lot of us, it's brand new.

      i do math the "common core" way not because it was taught to me but because the old methods didn't work and i had to figure it out on my own.

      it may not be strictly "an adhd thing" but society made it so for a time.

          Adding up to 10, like the other comment explains, is the common way. Using 14 as intermediate step suggests a different way of thinking. OP could be on to something if that's normal to you.

          7 + 6 = 10 + 3 = 13

          Some people have 7+6 = 13 memorized.

          Some do 1+6+6 = 1+12 = 13.

          Some use offsets from 5, like 5+1+5+2 = 2*5 + 3 = 13

          Hell I'm sure somebody did it like 10 - 4 + 10 - 3 = 20 - 7 = 10 + 10 - 7 = 10 + 3 = 13

            Now determine the correlation between the various methods and adhd. My guess is that people with adhd are more likely to use the more exotic methods.

                Is this not just how people do simple math? Why the hell else did they make us just memorize multiplication tables?

                  I would actually step to 10 first by going (7+3)+(6-3)

                  Steal some from the 6 to make the 7 round up to 10, then ad the remainder to 10.

                    Your guess is scientifically worthless. As any other guess, for that matter.

                      Indeed. The important part are the experiments to determine the correlations. Without those every opinion about OP's hypothesis in this post is as useless as my guess.

                          I don't think OP has a relevant experience, and it shows with these dumb memes.

                          This is the exact opposite experience I've heard from 90% of my adhd peeps. Cosplay shit.

                            three of the six falls into the gap between the 7 and 10, leaving 3 sticking out the top = 13.

                            I have no idea if this is normal or not

                                i actually do do this. also sometimes 7 + 6 = 7 + (3 + 3) = (7 + 3) + 3 = 10 + 3 = 13!

                                btw: i studied math.

                                  This is just what's called the "common core method". It's now the preferred method of teaching math in many Western countries.

                                    Not adhd and I do this. I think this is just an effective way to do mental math

                                          Or that this isn't related to ADHD at all...
