    I totally buy it.

    When I set my mind to something, I will doggedly pursue that goal at all costs. When something doesn’t stimulate me, it’s torture.

    Went camping, nobody wanted to gather firewood except me and my other ADHD friend. We were in heaven. Got to collect sticks and chop up dead trees. Watching the wood pile stack higher was incredibly rewarding and fun.

    I have thought many times before how helpful ADHD can be. My curiosity is unending and the hyperfocus/flow state is like being high.

    I’ve also thought about how hard ADHD can be in our modern society. Bums me out.
