Im 90% sure i ve ADD, but it s a pain to get a diagnostic in france and i havent checked thailand yet. My whole life people have thought i was lazy , but the truth is that i cant focus on trivial stuff without doing many things at the same time, and i talked to people that have adult ADD and we shared experience and our experiences were so similar that i m almost sure i have it. Back in france i had 3 screens on my desk because i couldnt focus if i didnt have a movie + a browser + whatever else i had to do.
Now I can hardly play more than 2 hours and doing more than 2 sessions a day is really difficult for me wich is a pain since for many months i ll have to live from my poker income if i want to stay in thailand.
My best way to have a real session is to split my screen with one HUSNG and some movie/tv show, and i can play as long as i have stuff to watch, but if i dont do that i lose focus really fast.

Yea, Im almost positive I have it, sighhhh, its hard for me to admit I have something like this, usually like to blame stuff like that on people having weak self control (confirmed narcissist
)Also pretty sure I have OCD, on a couple different levels, I REALLY enjoy collecting stuff, whether it was magic cards back in the day, blu-ray collections now, keeping books just to have them for future collection, etc., and like, my blurays I was bored so I put them all in perfect alphabetical order (like 150 of them). But the worst for me is my 1 other OCD that im embarassed to even talk about hahaha, it makes me feel like such girl, but I REALLY hate to do dishes, just plain and simple, dishes with food on them, like I can do them if I REALLY force myself to, but I dont know why, some part of me just HATES it, it just randomly freaks me out, and im not someone effected by germs / etc., im like the last person to care about that stuff, but I really like almost CANNOT do them, and its painful, and it causes fights between me and my wife CONSTANTLY, when she cooks and then I like, wont do the dirty dishes, I tell her I would do any other chore in the entire house, but just )#!#!ing hate that, its sooo weird, but I cant even control it, I dunno, FML!

It seems nowadays they just label half the people with ADHD or something related. Really sad for the people that actually have it though. Maybe it's just a european thing (though I doubt it), but nowadays if you have an active toddler he must have ADHD or something else. I wonder how that went 30 years ago or so and where the parents hid all their kids with it. Obviously changes in society and environments can influence the % of people with stuff like this but the last 5 years or so it's ridiculous in the environment I live(d). A kid who has no attention span and is active is now considered to have a problem almost always, in my days (I can't believe I'm saying this as a 22 year old lol) it was just an active kid.
I personally have the attention span of a goldfish, was always bored at school and had to find a new hobby like almost every month. I could have it, if I do, I just live with it, wtf? It struck a lot of close people that I actually found something I could do for years now (poker obv). Although I must admit I need some serious breaks now and then and just focus on other stuff.
WoW is sick sick how addictive it is. If you enjoy rpg's or hack&slash games in general (diablo, dungeon siege, etc.) at all this is just the nut-game to play. Huge world, lots of action, you can basically chose whether to follow the storyline a lot or not (personally I'm a hack&slash fan and not so story based rpg fan), and so on. There's literally zero bad things so far about it except that it's so ****ing additcitve. Just getting a group of 5-10-25 people and doing dungeons or raids is the nuts.
The problem is that you can't really finish the game. =/
Like, you can level up charactars to level 80 now (on december 7 new expansion will make it level 85) but that's far from where it stops. The fun just starts after level 80 since you can play heroic dungeons now on pretty hard difficulty settings. It also works with achievements and as for now, there are 1056 achievements to be had and it's just insaaaaaane to do them all. Some easy, some really hard, basically things like completing specific dungeons, exploring certain parts of the map, doing certain quests, doing certain things within time limits, etc. There's like 12M people with a WoW account now and there's under a 100 people with 1050/1056 or more just to give an idea. There's basically always something else to do or to go for and by the time you think you've done most they will come out with a new expansion.
Seriously, it's the nut game but if you don't want to be addicted I wouldn't start playing it. I both love and hate my roommate for getting me started in it tbh.

yea, this is weird for me, cause I can seperate myself and be fine, like before I used to be able to read like... 4 hours in a night, just sit there w/a book and be totally fine, same w/movies. So I guess maybe my case isnt so severe as this, but like when I grind I do a TON of other stuff, so its weird for me, really not sure why I only cant focus on some things, like reading a book should def. be something I shouldnt be able to do easily, but it also could be that I think I have a pretty intense imagination compared to some, and I only read fantasy books
but yea, also during alot of normal situations, like even when im focusing on something, I find my mind racing about ALOT of other stuff, usually random subjects I just get caught on, anything that caught my interest recently, and like in poker this is super hard for me to force myself to stop letting my mind race, so I actually focus and play well, recently (last 2 weeks), i've been stopping my sessions when I cant get myself to focus right, which ive never done before

The mind racing thing is something I always have had. I'm a huge fan of fantasy, sci fi and surnatural type of things. Seems dumb, but when I'm walking in the street or wherever usually I have absolutely no clue of what is going on around me because I'm just imagining stuff in my head like epic battles or dragons and witches n **** and just lose attention about what is actually happening around me. Never got hit by a car though, so kinda lucky.
I agree with spamz though, that nowadays everyone has some kind of problem. Aperger syndrome, ADD, OCD, hyperactivity, you always have some kind of problem and most people just overreact when they discover that OMG I HAVE A PSYCHOLOGICAL/PHYSIOLOGICAL PROBLEM WHAT AM I GOING TO DO!!!ONE!1!
Just live with it, the less you remind yourself you have "some kind of problem", the less that problem will be in your way.
Also I have to write a paper about the success factors of WoW, soooo keep your posts coming spamz
