I feel like people would be happier if they always had a "kick" or a "thing" going on continuously that they were perpetually trying or experimenting with.

Like on Sunny, they always have like a thing or "type-deal" going on that makes things fresh

I wonder how much of it is the AD(H)D. I feel like my same terrible habit of dropping new endeavors might extend well to being open and really desiring exploring above shit like prestige and power etc. i love being a tourist in my own life and learning and asking questions and "having a wonderful time"

You sound like me before I came to terms with my diagnosis. I even used to call myself a subculture tourist lol.

Of course this way of thinking doesn't have to be seen as a detriment. I love how curious I am and how knowing about a ton of topics really helps me draw connections.

Just my two cents! Naturally, you know yourself the best :)

Been dx'd btw, I just like to think about these things
