AuDHD is so funny sometimes like what do you mean my hyperfixations/special interests will last for years on end or possibly forever but they will cycle out every month or two with absolutely no transitional period or warning. like i will think about the same topic every day obsessively for 46 days in a row and on the 47th day with no visible cause adhd brain goes "ok! bored of that now" and autism brain goes "dw i got something queued up for ya" and i blast into full blown obsession on some other topic whose mental file folders haven't opened in 9 months. brain's out here treating hyperfixations like a crop rotation. once the dopamine runs out it cycles in another one but once something's in the rotation it never ever leaves. last summer we brought in one from when i was 11. it's so funny to me but frustrating too bc like. i cannot stress enough my inability to predict or control this. or how completely abrupt and random it can be

#actually adhd #actually autistic #audhd #aphelion.txt #ik 'adhd brain' vs 'autism brain' is a gross oversimplification especially given how much overlap there can be #but it at least helps me conceptualize wtf is going on in my head when i do this lol #and yeah i'm mostly referring to fandoms in this post but it can happen w more 'Traditional' special interests too #like my linguistics special interest which hasn't popped up in a couple years now but whenever it does #i will fill literal notebooks while studying 4 languages at once and simultaneously inventing a conlang #and then i'll be like Ok that was fun! and several months later im deleting like. 2gb of textbooks off my iphone to make room for an update #And sometimes yeah there is a precipitating event like 'Oh something new happened in X fandom with my blorbo!' but sometimes it's like #yeah. no. idk either. switch got flipped in my brain and X no longer sparks joy. only Y rn. how come it's Y? yeah idk i also wish i knew #i don't think any of this is actually an uncommon experience for people with these types of neurodivergencies it's just.#the severity of abruptness and TOTALITY of the switch that makes me feel like a weirdo sometimes lol #like I'M getting mental whiplash from this sometimes. idk how y'all are still following my blog
