Now vs. Not Now

Rather than having an internal clock, which perceives the passing of time, people with ADHD experience time from two sorts of “time zones” - commonly referred to as Now and Not Now. For instance, if something is not happening Now then it’s happening Not Now; things that are Not Now do not need to be attended to. That is why you'll see an individual with ADHD perform, what seems as, quite well, under pressure. For example, the project they've had months to work on was due Not Now until maybe just a day or two before Now. To people without ADHD this can seem mystifying and maddening. It can also negatively impact many areas of life: career, intimate relationships, family, and others’ perceptions of them.
