finding out people dont usually add numbers by first adding something to make a ten (for example 7+6= 7 plus 3 is 10 plus another 3 is 13) & that its actually an adhd thing is the WILDEST shit literally ive lived like 10 years (or however old i was when i learned to add and stuff) thinking thats how everyone does it. what the fuck

WHAT

What? How the fuck do other people count? 

I always add as though it is ten and then subtract. Basically, in my head, I say “well, if the equation were 10+6 instead of 7+6 the answer would be 16, but its not, because seven is three less than ten, so 16-3 is thirteen and therefore 7+6=13
