  • Like many adults I just got recently diagnosed in my mid 30s.

    For me it was that I can’t have adhd because I was good at school and uni. Then I completely fell apart when I entered work.

    I had to go through depression and burn out and bore out and more. Eventually someone said I could have adhd and just been able to deal due to high IQ.

    Turns out that’s what it was. I’m really good at learning new stuff. So school and uni. I really suck at repeating the same shit all day. So work. Welp. Helps to know.

    Same.

    Also I get to share my hobbies with them. We got a d&d group, we paint minis and play video games together. Which is stuff I’d do anyways.

    I also picked up inline skating as my kids do that all the time and just standing there while they skate was boring.

    Plus I still got hobbies as does my wife. Yes there is less time but we have each other’s backs so everyone can have some time for their own interests like once or twice a week.

    Uuuh… Jim once became the BBEG in a story arc I GMed in masks.

    I set myself the challenge that whoever the Bull character first selects as their rival will somehow be one of the main bosses of the first storyline.

    So they chose the random security guy named Jim who was tasked with watching the group during prep for a press event.

    So J.I.M. was born. Juggernaut infiltration Mercenary program made by some lex Luther type ceo to create super soldiers. And Jim was one of them gone rogue.

    It’s an adventure the group still remembers very fondly.




  • It’s either obsession or bust for me. But that’s with everything in life almost.

    Currently obsessed with silk song too. But then it could end any second.

    I didn’t game any video for almost two years prior. Like at all. Excitement suddenly gone.

    I went into board games and trading cards instead. It’s really annoying sometimes to lose interest after so much investment of time and money and emotion.

    Brain is weird man.
