ADD, the nightmare

Aug 24, 2012 22:37

I had a nightmare the night before last, which has stuck with me a little bit, because I finally understand something about it. It was one of those situations where there's some sort of mathematics exam, but with some really complicated not-quite-math-like problems like you'd find in puzzle hunt games.

Oh nice, I like the detailed analysis!

When I worked a graveyard shift (and had memory problems from it) this weird thing happened where I could take a test knowing I'd studied for it but instead of just KNOWING the answers I'd have to mentally struggle to find them. I'd never really GOTTEN before that 'being smart' wasn't usually a lot of effort for me and that really, I didn't have a great set of strategies for learning past 'it coming easily to me'.

Then I started getting normal sleep and never really thought about it all again.
