This is why I have to put my phone far away from me during shows and movies lol

If I'm not doing something with my hands then I won't be able to tell you what happened in the movie. Even if I was staring unmoving and quiet at the screen the whole time.

Fidget toys. Legitimately, toys for fidgeting children. There are all kinds of designs available. That's how I manage mine. My significant other (who also has ADHD) does the phone thing but none of the problem mitigation and it drives me nuts!
