Is it fair to say people with ADHD add thoughts onto a stack while the rest of the population adds thoughts to a queue?

More like the thoughts are added automatically to the stack with little to no control.

You pop one off the stack but in doing so it opens up and a dozen springy toy snake thoughts burst out.

Yeah. So you pop one off the stack, but in processing that item, you push 10 more things on the stack. And the same happens when you pop one of those 10 items off the stack.

Why haven't I finished that task from eight weeks ago? I can't tell you, or it will get even later.

I suspect it's non-ADHD is linear, while ADHD is multi-dimensional mesh.

The thoughts are added to the ether and the ones that happen to make contact with the previous node become the next link.
