@shoe I don’t know if it can be linked but if you think about Low Arousal Theory; you could say that an ADHD person with higher than normal stress capacity could do better if there was a fight or flight situation everytime. It also makes sense with Hunter vs Farmer Theory. But it’s not applicable to real life, where the biggest fear you can feel is getting a ticket or being pulled off by a cop. From my own experience, i can say that i’ve always performed better when the situation is too stressful or when i’m really scared. It all comes down to the “not enough stimulation” anyway..
