Edward Hallowell talks eloquently about Attention Deficit Disorder or ADD. In fact, I understand that he's the one who coined the term in the first place in 1995. Now he's written a new book, CrazyBusy: Overstretched, Overbooked and About to Snap! Strategies for Coping in a World Gone A.D.D.
According to Overly Wired? There's a Word for It Hallowell sees the idea spreading far and wide:
The frenzy of our wired world, he argues, is giving nearly all of us the symptoms of attention deficit disorder.
Playfully, Hallowell suggests some names for this harried condition. Screensucking, Email voice, Frazzing and Gemmelsmerch among them.
Columnist Lisa Belkin is not content to stop there, suggesting her own ideas: Spammified, Cellopain, Regurgimailer, Reverberon, Telamnesia, and Bluetooth fairy.
Probably if you can think up terms like these, you don't have the underlying condition.
