I have ADHD - I meet more than 1/2 the criteria. I have a couple of the hyperactive criteria but I'm heavier on the inattentive presentation. My BF has a thing he says to me when my attention, invariably, wanders. "Shiny things! Shiny things!" He's so right.

So, how do you explain that I can sit, literally, for hhhhooouuurrrssss untangling knotted necklaces? Or doing jigsaw puzzles? Time stands still I become so hyper-focused. And relaxed. Like I mean....rrrreeeeelllllaxed. Nothing jacks me up when I'm doing either of those 2 things. It's the closest to "Zen" I ever get.

Is that OCD/ADHD?
