Hyperfixations - Tumblr Posts - Page 2
“i just need to get it out of my system” i say as i draw them for the 47th time
God didn’t give me any normal healthy hyperfixations cause he knew if I was productive I would be too powerful and create things against his name
peak adhd is either having 1 chaos smoothie of a blog with every single one of your hyperfixations being yeeted in
Or
Having separate blogs for each of your hyperfixations in an attempt to be more organised but ending up with 13+ blogs and only a vague sense of organisation
Love that most of my hyperfixations aren't on objects, games, tasks, y'know, normal things.
I almost exclusively hyperfixate on people.
(My current hyperfation is named Bella.)
why hyperfixations can suck:
i wanted to make this blog to complain about how hyperfixations can suck, depending on the subject. for example one of my current major hyperfixations is Mindless Self Indulgence. i have no control about how it occupies my head, despite knowing how the band is pretty shitty its like i try to get away from it but as a hyperfixation it always come back (springtrap refrence be like) its a thing i dislike about hyperfixations: its out of my control even if i dont want it
Um what the actual fuck are you doing in my house- /LH
Buuut besides the point I got more art to share of the funny (it's just art of my lil Sona as Sif, which I named Siffi)
And as a lil treat, I went silly and made a comic on a whiteboard,
Anyway

The times where you have the same hyperfixation as your friends are the best ones
i am constantly resisting the urge to infodump on people about my hyperfixations
I!!!!! Had SUCH an issue with this!!!!! I think I got metaphorically kicked down far top many times in grade school, since I stopped talking so openly about my hyperfixations by the time junior high came. At least to everyone except my mom, and my closest friends, because I KNEW for CERTAIN that they would never make fun of me.
I still remember a few things that were said that will forever haunt me and make me doubt myself. The one that hurts the most would probably be when I was... Ohh, 12? Maybe 13? I had just experienced my first abrupt fixation shift, from Invader ZIM to I THINK it was Alien??? Or maybe Assassin's Creed... But I remember talking about my new fixation with my mom and step-dad one day, when my step-dad pipes up and tells me; "You know what I find weird? You know how you keep talking and talking and TALKING about [X Interest] nonstop? Yeah. You used to do that with something else, too- you were absolutely Bat Shit Insane over it. You remember Invader ZIM? Yeah, you were Bat Shit over it, and now you just FORGOT it? It's fuckin weird, kid."

Thanks. Now I will forever be self conscious over how hard I fixate, and how much I gush about them. :)
DON’T MAKE FUN OF THE HYPERFIXATIONS OF PEOPLE WITH ADHD
I have ADHD.
Elementary school - judged for being hyperfixated with cats
6th Grade - bullied relentlessly for hyperfixating on Harry Potter
8th Grade - bullied for hyperfixating on Hamilton
9th-10th Grade - teased by my friends for being hyperfixated on Supernatual; people telling me I talk about Supernatural too much
Result - I’m too scared to talk to people about my hyperfixations because I don’t want to be annoying so I just bottle up all my thoughts about it and it’s really sucky
Just don’t make fun of people’s hyperfixations!! It’s literally such a dick movie!!
Okay okay okay I KNOW this isn't like... A Relateable Post or educational, but THIS IS MY CURRENT HYPERFIXATION AND IT STILL RELATES TO THE THEME!!!
also it's MY blog and I can do what I want!
.
Okay! Now that that's taken care of.... YEEEESSSS YES YES YES YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT OP!!! Yesssss gimme more. I LIVE for relateable BJTM content!!!
I am SO SO glad other people have picked up on the ADHD Maitlands!!! The whole "Picking Up Hobbies and Projects and Then Dropping Them" deal just SCREAMS hyperfixations to me!!!! Yes!!
Beej also stims by flapping his hands, and has an oral fixation. You can't take that from me even if you tried to pry it from my cold, crusty bone hands.
beetlejuice is adhd & autistic and experiences extreme rsd. please applaud my huge galaxy brain moment
My mother with (probably) ADHD: Help I get focused super hard on one project or business for a few months, spend lots of money starting up said interest, then drop it before 6 months is up. Also I put all my effort into studying for a career I'm good at but has turned out to be super unfulfilling to me personally.
My sister with (probably) ADHD: Help I have difficulty experiencing empathy and get angry far too quickly. I especially can't handle scolding or reprimandation, no matter how light the issue is. Also Noises Are Bad.
Me, diagnosed as a child with ADHD: Help I experience extreme hyperfixations on fictional worlds and characters to the point of learning everything I can about the making of said media, studying the intricate lore within the world, or picking apart a character's psychology and finding headcanons where there probably aren't supposed to be any, and can channel my euphoria from said hyperfixations to help with school worl only sometimes. Also Noise Sensitivity and Sentimental Clutter Hoarding.
it's so stupid, adhd is a dozen vaguely related neuroses in a trench coat, including such popular hits as
Can't Fucking Sleep Disorder
Can't Fucking Wake Up Disorder
What Is A Focus
Oops I Did It* Again (*Spent Thirteen Hours On Youtube And Forgot To Eat Or Drink)
The World Is Too Noise Today
All My Friends Hate Me (I Deduced This From A Three Word Text)
I Forgot About [thing] Literally As Soon As I Turned Around
...and they decided to call it Trouble Sitting Still Disorder?????
I'm creating a new series (for posts on my account.)
Essentially, I tend to get drawn into a lot of things and fandoms that I then hyper-fixate on at random intervals of time. Some last for months, some last for weeks, some even last years, maybe even a day or two (although I deem that highly unplauseable for me.)
But anyway, to skip straight to the point; I'll be making a weekly series on my account where during the beginning of a new week, I post the current hyper-fixation I'm having on that current day, which will probably mostly be just Jujutsu Kaisen and Fullmetal Alchemist because those are my biggest brainworms by far for this year. But you never know; regardless, I'll see you all tomorrow to post my fixation for the day!
It'll be fun!!
WEEK 1 OF MY CURRENT HYPERFIXATION AT THE MOMENT!
Forgot to put this on Monday like I promised haha!
Anyway, today's hyper-fixation of mine is Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood!
(There will probably be many, many weeks where this or JJK are my sole answers.)
