The problem is that there are many other mental disorders that have a profound effect on executive function as well

There are very few videos games I can play because of this. I love gaming, but finding one that I like is extremely challenging.

I just saw someone on Reddit who claimed this profound boredom with everything was why they didn't have ADHD. Apparently the list of symptoms they were reading did not accurately describe the depths of ADHD boredom, and they thought their boredom was a worse breed that indicated some far worse mental problem.

Had to tell 'em.

I have no hobbies I enjoy longer than about a month except gaming, and even then I still get like a month mileage out of each game. I can't hold a job because every time I start a new one it's like a ticking timebomb in my brain until I can't handle it anymore. Even if the job is easy and the people are nice. Something about the repetitive schedule and saying/hearing/doing the same thing every day brings me to a near panic attack level of restlessness and anxiety.

And then forget all of it when you go to talk to someone about it.

I hate my brain.

Oh, but on a positive note. I’ve been able to go back and rewatch my favorite shows like every season is brand new except for a few episodes that really really stood out to me.

I remember things from my early early childhood. My older sister doesn't remember shit from back then. She has no idea what our forst apartment looked like and when we moved and all that. I remember everything.
But when i put my screwdriver somewhere, 4 seconds later, the screwdriver might as well not exist anymore.

I hate it when I forget about my shirt
