this creates state of constant excessive self awareness. concentration copes include "numbing" behaviors that blunt the feeling of self through self-soothing repetitive motion such as the tapping of feet or fingers

concentration cannot be brought forth b/c concentration requires shutting out the external world it is similar to walking into a closet. for the adhd child, this is experienced as a sudden looming loneliness. something is quickly sought out as distraction to do sth else.

flow states bypass this fight or flight response just like being pushed into a pool or riding a roller coaster. the rapidity of physical (or mental) stimulation simply overwhelms the ability of the thinking mind to respond
