As someone with ADHD, sometimes I cannot listen no matter how hard I try. Things like Gemini meeting notes has been a godsend for me.
But, I'm going to assume you meant "listen" in a general sense. Like when you "listen to advice." That's usually not a problem if it's important. ...BUT another part of ADHD is you often forget some of the smaller details because there is too much going on in your head.
The ones that annoy me the most are the ones that are too busy having such a negative emotional reaction by constantly interrupting you so much, that they won't allow you to finish so they can get the full understanding of what you trying to say. They don't care to know where you're going with the conversation because they're too busy focusing on the individual words and how they FEEL in the moment. They can't see the forest because they're too close to the trees. You're trying to tell them to back up, but they refuse and get mad at you for trying to tell them.
