Re: The Sixty-hour hyperfocus COMA

[Anonymous]

The internet has been my hyper focus for about ten years now. Lets see.. ebay was the first one.. shopping in general (also a major clothes horse) Any games that are of a puzzle type.. HOURS wasted doing that. Then my youngest daughter set me up on Myspace.. well I resisted it for awhile.. then I found a few old friends.. they told me to switch to Face Book cause that’s where they usually are.. so then I got into gaming there.. Vampire wars, Mafia wars , Farmville.. and a whole lot more.

Then my other daughter got me to read the Twilight series.. did it in 5 days over Thanksgiving break. Then one of my clients told me about another series for adults .. LOVED it and partially cause I was unhappy in my relationship at the time. So I became obsessed with reading.. read literally about 200 books in less than a year. Met some people online thru a book group .. made more friends on FB.. started a RP group for one of my favorite authors… then I finally moved out and on with my life from that relationship. Met current man in my life.. stopped reading very much.. and almost feel obligated to go online to my RP group. BUT the bad part is my new man (fellow ADDer) Is my new hyperfocus and he has a busy life with only a limited amount of time for me. Plus his ADD of course has him over whelmed alot and I’m still new to my diagnosis and am trying to be patient .. knowing I am the same way sometimes. Ugggg… I just started Ritalin last week with hopes that I can get it all under control.

Sooo.. over all .. yeah feel all your pain! LOL
