I also keep acquiring hobbies and also have ADHD but spend way too much on it all.

My hobby is collecting hobbies. Under my desk at home is a pile of various "projects" most of which I cannot seem to finish.

My whole office is a giant pile of that lol

Barbara Sher (rip) has a great book, Refuse to Choose, that does a great job of reframing ones thinking about bouncing around between projects / hobbies and not "finishing" them.
