The problem with being a programmer with ADHD is that it's often more fun to build a chainsaw from scratch than it is to chop down a tree by hand with an axe.
the fun bit of “how do I get enough dopamine moving around my brain to function” problem. And what work you actually do to solve that in addition to the technical problem.
I like being able to hyper focus, but I hate not being able to go “I’m going to do this now” and actually do it.

* I am allowing myself the luxury of commercial RAM/ROM chips.
