This is actually the meme that convinced me to get diagnostic testing. Hoping to get medication for ADHD soon, but the antidepressants are nice (except they make me poop. Like, a lot)

I thought everyone had twelve abandoned hobbies and functioned on the very edge of disaster at all times. No i don't have trouble focusing on the task at hand, I can play RimWorld for hours at a time

    Is that what making me poop all the time?

    My psychiatrist warned me about stimulants also stimulating my bowels...but not the antidepressants. She warned me that would kill my sex drive, but that's about it.

    So (TW: TMI), I have had very loose stool since starting SSRI's. And when I have to go, I have to go! (One day I sneezed and did what my mother very patiently taught me not to do 43 years earlier.) I also get hot flashes at the same time every day (I'm biologically male), and have started needing to nap in the mid afternoon in order to function the rest of the day. On the plus side I no longer deal with feelings of ennui or that life is pointless, and my stress levels aren't quite as high, which is nice

    You should see my Warhammer collection of half painted minis, and my starwars armada collection.

    While I show you that we can look at all my boardgames i haven't opened along with my lego collection

    Oohh my swords for Hema too and my video games.

    I have a giant list of started video games that I've never finished.

    I've got a pushbike too and my boxing bag from kick boxing and it goes on and on

    I bet you also own but haven't played Star Wars: Imperial Assault, the ttrpg. I opened the box, started reading the rules, and suddenly I was playing poker in RDR2

    I feel your pain. It took me over 5 years to find the correct mix of DnD players from my circle of friends. Adults who could maintain a consistent weekly gaming schedule and not be That Guy™. In our current campaign one friend wound up being a wangrod, but another invited one of his friends that is somehow more of a nerd than I am. So it balanced out. This took a long time and several false starts over the years. One of my players has to remote in on Zoom, which sucks, but we make it work. The point is, keep trying. If you can maintain interest that is lol
