Attention Deficit Disorder

Well since it's probably not a disorder at all (since, let's face it: most things are usually nothing to worry about), relaxing and getting a better grip on the reality of the issues you're currently dealing with are probably your best bets. Letting time pass will help, as will common sense and patience.

From where you're standing it might seem nice to have something on which to blame certain unwanted behaviors, but from the vantage point of the folks that actually suffer from this disorder, that's a pretty selfish and short-sighted thing to want. Some things don't have medical names, they just have subtle annoyances that last a short while and then, provided you don't dwell on them and blow them out of proportion, are gone.

But feel free to get medical attention
