I can't focus when someone is talking directly to me with a lot of details for more than 2 minutes!  
This is my biggest problem with ADHD .  
Give me tips to be a better listener

If it’s a lot of details (instructions, directions, etc) then I ask for it written down. If it’s just a conversation then having something to do with my hands helps a lot (I like knitting or drawing). If I still zone out then I just try to be honest and tell them, sorry can you repeat that I got distracted 😅😅

I do, except out loud. I am probably really annoying

When i do so , i repeat words without understanding the context! Just focusing on repeating

I’m also here for a tip, but I have a question. 

Do you finish sentence of the person who is speaking to you in your mind?
