My ADHD interests: intensely researching a topic that has no prospect of financial reward and wanting to talk about it to people who don’t care

What was your last one? I lately fell into the Esperanto rabbit hole.

Not OP, but TTRPGs. Started after I finished BG3, and talked my friends into playing DnD, with me as a DM. Knew literally nothing, and hyperfocused for months learning as much as I could.

I've prepared a 70 page document for my players detailing every one of my 6 homebrew classes, 20 subclasses, 15 origins (races don't make sense in the setting), and some lore about our ASOIAF campaign (I could keep going for hours about all I've homebrewed).

We're all ready and rearing to go and I'm kind of... Already over it. I'm homebrewing vampire bloodlines ala dragonborn lineages and wild magic radiation and mutation systems on the side but those don't make sense in this setting, and it hurts.

Edit: the worst thing is, I do have people that would be interested in those homebrews, but they're my players and I don't want to spoil them!

Conlanging is great for this because you can make and abandon basic sketches of languages forever.

Don't forget waking up a month or two later and realizing that you no longer care about the subject you've been hyperfocusing on and now have no idea what to do with yourself until the next hyperfixation shows up.

I think what bothers me most is having no one to talk about things with. Like, I just made this cool thing! Someone ask me about it!!

The only person I have to babble at has level 2 autism and can only process a finite (and very small) number of words per day before she combusts 😭
