ADHD hyperfocus and autistic special interests can stack on top of each other. I don’t see enough people talk about it so here is a recent example of mine.
Did I know I would end up examining the Justin Bieber + Billie Eilish Coachella clip a zillion times, based on the thrill of their emotions plus my deep interest in interpersonal dynamics? No. But it’s been fun and I learned a lot.
�The ADHD pulled me in, but both ADHD and autism kept me there. This can look like intensity, repetition, curiosity, and sense making all at once. That’s just one way I engage with media clips.
