Anybody who thinks that non-ADHD people go straight from start to end has never listened to another human tell a story.
Sure, there are times when someone has a well-rehearsed story that they've told 1000 times so they're basically doing a monologue they've memorized. But, mostly people forget details and have to go back, or stop to clarify something, and so on. Losing their train of thought is also perfectly normal.
I'm sure that people with ADHD are more scatterbrained. But, you should have a realistic comparison for what's "normal".
This post isn't for you and nobody is sorry about it.
