What is it?
Zoning out is a form of mind wandering. It happens when your brain loses its grip on the present moment. Your thoughts drift away because your focus system is not getting the fuel it needs.
Signs & Symptoms
Why does this happen?
Your prefrontal cortex acts as the boss of your brain. It needs dopamine to stay alert. In an ADHD brain, dopamine levels can drop during quiet or boring tasks. When this happens, your Default Mode Network takes over. This is the part of the brain used for dreaming. Your brain flips to a different channel because the current one feels like static.
