Can we stop making every little thing about ADHD? This is just a common way to do arithmetic

I don't think OP has a relevant experience, and it shows with these dumb memes.

This is the exact opposite experience I've heard from 90% of my adhd peeps. Cosplay shit.

Adding up to 10, like the other comment explains, is the common way. Using 14 as intermediate step suggests a different way of thinking. OP could be on to something if that's normal to you.

7 + 6 = 10 + 3 = 13

Some people have 7+6 = 13 memorized.

Some do 1+6+6 = 1+12 = 13.

Some use offsets from 5, like 5+1+5+2 = 2*5 + 3 = 13

Hell I'm sure somebody did it like 10 - 4 + 10 - 3 = 20 - 7 = 10 + 10 - 7 = 10 + 3 = 13
