It's context switching, I face this daily due to my OCD. The damn doorways are always a problem.
I'm not very well versed on this subject, but have there been any experiments conducted with a doorway in the middle of a basketball court or a field?
I'm sure that would mess me up for a good couple of minutes as well. It's not just doorways that lead to a different room, it's just the fact that there's a doorway present, that changes my context of things.
Maybe I'm the weird one.

I'm picturing basketball with a slightly larger court, a canvas wall suspended down the center strapped down around three doorways evenly spaced from the edges, six players per team on the court, and maybe some round padded platforms centered behind the free-throw lines for extra terrain strategy. There'd be some kind of rule similar to dribbling to prevent standing in doorways; something like, you can only stop or take more than two steps in a doorway zone if you've got the ball.

- stordoff 8y agoInterestingly I find that doorways _help_ with my OCD - moving to another room helps me move on from my obsessions.
