I've been building a theory about ADHD brains.

The short version: ADHD isn't a broken brain. It's a different architecture.

Neuroscience already knew the pieces; your prefrontal cortex runs at lower power, background noise improves your thinking (like giving a low-idle engine a jumpstart), and busy environments make you sharper while boring ones shut you down.

What I did was connect them into a single framework I call Working Memory Fragility. The novel claim: ADHD brains don't have less processing power. They have a bottleneck. High-bandwidth perception running through a buffer that keeps erasing itself. A Ferrari engine with a go-kart fuel line.

That bottleneck explains everything: why you can master a video game but forget three grocery items. Why you need 47 browser tabs open. Why sitting still makes you dumber. Your procedural memory (learning by doing) is perfectly intact. It's only the mental whiteboard that's fragile.

I built this by documenting my own brain for three years with AI as my research partner; then validating the patterns against peer-reviewed neuroscience. Turns out my daily chaos was data.
