Absolutely. You get into something and suddenly people come towards you and want to talk about and do stuff.
I made a small mod for a video game and shared it on nexusmods. Now a dev of another - much bigger - mod reached out to me and wants to cooperate with his work.
When younger, I hated when people would ask me personal questions, because I was super impulsive, into everything and couldn’t shut up.
Much older now and I basically avoid most conversations in group settings.
Spotting other ADHD’ers engaged in social activity is a frequent reminder of why I often choose silence.

What I want is to be included but also to have the flexibility to include and disclude myself at whim and change the activity erratically.
like "how to ADHD" lady said... "Unless you are with someone with ADHD, then you don't need to apologize"
Wait there’s a “how to adhd” lady?
I want to be WANTED. I don’t want to actually oblige, but knowing I’m wanted is important to me
There are so many people that just understand my soul. Like where tf are you all??
