I really like this! The story is already incredibly suspenseful, and the description is thriving. The flow is a bit odd, as if you're unsure where to pace it, so don't be afraid to have an exciting fast-paced story right from the go; if you're going to try it, then commit with all you can!
This is incredibly thorough and well-thought; as someone with ADHD, it's always a trip to read what others perceive the disorder as. It's wonderful to see the juxtaposition of personality and learning disorders, as the two very easily can run hand-in-hand, and personality traits are, on a personal level of specific patients rather than an overview of 'all', seem to be identical of each other, if not just on varying levels of intensity.
A better understanding here could be grasped, however, by observing/interviewing anyone diagnosed with ADHD, rather than the reports of someone who does not understand it. Many separate learning disorders are highly associated with ADHD (i.e. dyscalcia has only been known to manifest in those with ADHD), as well as association with several mood and personality disorders(chronic depression, generalized anxiety and bi-polar disorder to name the most relevant).
Both temperament and 'symptoms' may be unable to be understood if a parent does not have the condition themselves; it's a matter of empathy in any case, when dealing with anyone who has a learning disorder. Even those with ADHD have a difficult time understanding those with more prominent features of the varying three ways of going about a diagnosis--in any case, the recurring two points of interest are inability to focus on your own terms, and uncontrollable hyperactivity, or enhanced periods of manic mood.
And in any case, ADHD more than usually is not evident after full maturing age has been reached. Though it's amusing to believe that those with ADHD are simply just a complicated person of sanguine nature, I have to sadly say that I am still very much affected by my learning disorder and am quite chloric.
However, overall, an interesting and thought-provoking stance on the condition. I wish it were not a disorder, as told by all my effort to change my overwhelming struggles in school and crippling self-doubt that comes with it.
