Yeah this is pretty common from my experience. For me I end up giving into the complusion, spoilers be damned, until I end up exhausting my avenues for consuming content and get either burnt out or content starved. There is no in between for me. Other people I know are more similar to you in that they avoid spoilers like the plague. Managing ADHD is tough in that there's no "one right way" to do it.

I do my best to mitigate my ADHD by having at least 3 hyperfixations in rotation at any given time that I can jump to and fro from to keep myself stimulated, and looking at fanmade content for said media helps quell the need to indulge. Having a partner in my life to bounch hyperfixes off of helps too, as we both fixate over completely different things.

Tbh I'm not sure how helpful any of this is, as I'm merely jotting down whatever train of thought I'm having atm, but if knowing you're not alone in this brings you some form of comfort I will be happy.

hi so i got diagnosed with adhd like 6 months ago after continuously insistently denying i had it to everyone who swore up and down that i did have it. then a psychiatrist was "yeah you have it bro" and i've been re-evaluating everything in my life. anyways. that's context, and with that re-evaluating i've realized something about my hyperfixations and i want to know if:

a) people with adhd relate to it. b) how do you. deal with this. because i think it's somewhat ruining how i interact with media.

anyways, under the read more ->

i've come to realize a pattern with media i consume that i get fixated on. typically this happens with longer media. so stuff like homestuck, and currently with one piece. stuff that i cant binge in an evening or two. (i am on chapter 170 of one piece at the moment of writing this, i read 40 chapters yesterday)

i obviously can't be consuming the new piece of media i'm into every second of my day, in fact, that sounds exhausting.

i have other things i need to get done and, in fact, i NEED to be doing other things because even with something i'm hyperfixated on, my brain will get bored and needs to bounce off other types content. however what this does mean is that every thought i have IS still hyperfixated on the piece of media which means i will still seek out that content even if it's not me reading the original source material.

what this MEANS is that i have all these video essays recommended to me about one piece because youtube has caught on that i am liking and enjoying ONE PIECE (same with twitter. my entire twitter for you page is completely consumed by one piece. i dont know who 2/3rds of these people are please im still in alabasta what is happening) and i Want to Watch them all but i'm in the stage rn where Everything Is A Spoiler so i CANT watch the video essays so ill instead watch them RIGHT UP UNTIL im in the danger zone of being spoiled (sometimes actually risking/getting spoiled) or watching random out of context one piece clips and my one piece friends are all telling me i am just like icarus and flying too close to the sun but i also feel like i can't help the compulsion in some ways? it also means i cannot help but talk about it in every conversation i have with everyone but that seems like, minorly connected to all this.

it's crazy because in my head this is the Worst Stage of the hyperfixation, where i can Only consume the media itself and not all the fan stuff around it. but that's Insane because this should be the best time because i'm literally experiencing the cool media i like for the first time. i feel insane. does anyone else relate to this. how do you deal with it?

That ENTIRE interaction I was picturing Tango's little minecraft guy just vibrating with excitement. Let him do fun redstone, look at 'im. He's like a puppy you just used the word "treat" around its adorable

Pearl talking about her postal company

Etho: Wh- what do you think Tango do you think we could pull it off?

Tango, BRIMMING with excitement: I think so yeah yeah yeah yeah!

Also:

Pearl: Two redstone minds like yourself, do you think we could pull some magic-

Tango, enthusiastically: Mhm!

Pearl: To— to kind of do something fancy?

Tango, with the same enthusiasm: Mhm!

Don't know what pearl's obsession with public services is but going from server cleaning lady to server postal system somehow feels so organic and natural. I love this server so much, it's literally just a bunch of goobers doing goober stuff.

[silverdragon889]

The addition of Skizz to Hermitcraft is the most NATURAL thing and I am LIVING for it. Overdoing a base? Done. Jumping into a new bit? Already there! Causing chaos? Born for it and hit the ground running. He's thriving. He has received enrichment.

[silverdragon889]

just love how iskall went "okay. i've been fighting burnout for several seasons. i need something to do that isn't a base to keep my attention on hermitcraft so i don't burn out again. what should my role on this server be." and thought about that for a bit and appears to have come to the answer of "i should be a complete menace as much as possible actually." he deserves this, even if the rest of the server doesn't, and isn't that what's really important?

Hi.

[silverdragon889]

ever think about the fact that 3rd life wasnt meant to be a death game, initially. it was a hardcore series. there was the threat of eventual antagonists but no one took it seriously. and then All of That happened and now they go into each new season knowing how much blood is going to spill just not when and whose.

I think thats why last life felt so fundamentally different from all the other seasons. they started 3rd life expecting a fun hardcore smp with some fun red life mechanics. they started last life expecting to die.

Anyone else kinda feral over Grian giving Cleo a chance to esacpe Gem and the Scotts base by essentially sacrificing himself to buy her time in spite of his own fair-weather nature? Or Grian not killing Scar with the TNT minecart because he "forgot to set it up right", only for Scar to win? That Pearl, who's kinda like a sister to Grian, threw her fight with Scar, almost as if fufulling her brother's hidden wish? That despite Scar claiming he had no friends, Grian was always a little nice to him and was Grian's first choice for a friend?

No? Just me?
