Welcome! You're possibly a self medicating ADHD person.
Otter common signs you should get checked out
do you sit there paralyzed and unable to do a task, even when you want to do it and know it needs to get done?
are you weirdly calm and effective in stressful and panicked situations?
do you get really into a hobby for a while, then drop it forever because you lose all interest?
If so, a diagnosis could be life altering.
the hobby thing really gets on your nerves after 3-4 times of spending a shitton of money into every single one
Since I'm aware of this I just focus my energy on choosing the perceft balance between price and quality of the required equipment and then never actually buying it because by the time it's chosen I've already found another hobby.
It drives my partner crazy when I do this for absolutely everything. I think it's a valid methodology for efficient... living?
