Does anyone else read a magazine from back to front - apparently it's a real common ADHD thing to do πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Haha. Yep. Always have. Never heard that one before....

Often try to read other things that way too....read first part, then skip to the end, then go back and read to fill in details. Eh. Not really suggested for maximum efficiency....but it is what is! Lol.

I read everything like that especially fiction. Start jump around end, go back to random middle parts. Its more exciting and challenging that way, anyway.

My dad does that with books, and he also has ADHD. I like to read magazines efficiently, so I look at the index and then only read the articles that look interesting, but if I find something neat while paging through to get to those articles, I'll read that, too.
