I find this pretty interesting. I can understand how some of the traits of ADHD might be a competitive advantage in things like hunting, but there are other traits, such as inattentiveness, that I fail to understand how that would be a competitive advantage in hunting. I have ADHD, and I basically swing between intense periods of focus/hyperfocus, and serious inattentiveness. I can see the advantage of hyperfocus… however I’m yet to find an advantage for inattentiveness, and the trouble with ADHD in my opinion is that I don’t seem to have a lot of control over when the hyperfocus kicks in, or when the inattentiveness kicks in.
