If "my mind wanders a lot during conversations, connecting different dots" is a thing with ADHD, then I'm pretty sure we can say I've got it! LOL. I am usually so busy thinking about what people say and what it means that I actually forget to remember what their face looks like even though I make a lot of eye contact. This is so challenging because then I can't remember people and their names, even though we've conversed at length! Sigh.

I like this term "cooperative overlapping" too. I still like doing it, too, but am working on just doing it with people I know really well who also do it, and whose conversations I'm really in tune with.

Thank you for this comment--very interesting stuff to consider!
