I vary between spacing out, zoning out, or the already mentioned autopilot.

Motor tasks like eye movement I think would fall under autopilot. I think it increases with age and adhd

I have to read out loud to myself to finish a book or an article.

It has made my reading comprehension go through the roof. And I didn't understand that about myself for my first 45 years.

Now I know that when people say read something they don't mean read the words but not the meaning. They mean read it and comprehend it.

Text-to-speech is your friend here.

I use a website called "speechify" but there are a lot of options.

Still helps to read along with it, but having that auditory input in tandem with visually reading will keep you on track like you've never experienced.

It already has a name: ADHD

Edit: and the stigma against the disease continues. I thought you were better than this, Lemmy.

Sure bud, tell me about the condition I’ve had all my life and how my life didn’t get immeasurably better when I finally got diagnosed and treated by a professional in my 4th decade of life.

So ignorant and arrogant at the same time. Trump voter?

Sometimes a headache is actually a sign of a fatal cancer that needs to be operated on.

MOST of the time it isn't.

I don't expect you to understand the difference.
