oh I'll lock in, but I have no choice what i will lock in to, nor how long I'll be locked in.

Oh but I've been locked in. It's just not the thing you or me wanted me to lock in on.

"Just lock in" is easily the worst advice I've ever received.

I've mastered contorting myself into a cephalopod-like entity to squeeze through the open windows and cracks in the walls just to get inside. It's really tiring though, so I can only do it for so long.

That sounds more like my anxiety than ADHD.

"I can't fix the things that are wrong because of the things that are wrong."

Has there ever been any research as to whether animals have mental traits similar to humans with ADHD?

It seems super weird to me that a successful species of hunters was able to pivot to repetitive and boring farm work. Repetitive stress should make a mentally healthy animal freak out! Sitting for years will kill you! Locking in to something that doesn't deserve your attention seems like it should've been a less fit adaptation.
