I’ll never understand why some people talk about hyperfocus like it’s a good thing. Sure, I may have gotten the task done but I also didn’t pee, eat, drink, or even move for multiple hours straight. I have issues with stopping when I’m in that state even if I’m experiencing discomfort. I also live alone so there’s no one around to help me out of it.

Taking my meds helps a lot. It’s funny because I know a lot of us take ADHD meds to help focus more. I guess I do too but it’s more like it gives me more control of what I’m focusing on.
