That sounds exactly like me, but I don't skip large sections of text. I also read and think and talk about programming a lot more than I do it. At work I don't have this problem. The work place establishes the focus, which is hard to maintain at home.

Anyhow, why should one get a diagnosis for ADD/ADHD. What difference would it make for a 20 something?

At least for me, just understanding myself better has helped me cope with the difficulties I have.
