I'm sorry, what?
Aprosexia - An abnormal inability to pay attention, characterized by near-complete indifference to everything. Usually blamed on ADD these days
Opposite is hyperprosexia, meaning to concentrate on one thing to the exclusion of everything else; and,
paraprosexia, meaning the inability to pay attention to any one thing (a state of constant distraction).
I fear that I suffer from the latter. I blame cats, the internet and Nutrasweet. It isn't MY fault! :P
