OK I'll bite. I have the same thing the OP has and I believe most people have it as well (otherwise the world would be full of poliglots, everyone would be fit, etc). My point is you have a finite amount of energy and we want stuff but don't wanna pay the toll for it (that is when capital takes those longings and capitalizes on them, selling magic pills. A tale as old as time itself).
Now suppose someone knows all that all he would have to do is transcend it, but that is the difficult part.
Now... this is why I said I will bite and I hope you have a real answer. I am trying to motivate myself to do what is right (somethings are easy others are extremely hard). Life then can become exhausting and a checklist to the point where you will get the things you wanted but will not enjoy them. Ex: Everything is in perfect order but you feel off somehow. Health is great for your age, all exams return perfect, you are a great worker which in turns returns you money that you invest because spending on plastic would be stupid (Fight Club and what not), etc, etc...
It seems to me that in the end we have to integrate being human with being animalistic otherwise we ask ourselves to be robotic and reject our true nature...
So... There is no right and wrong way to be so you shouldn't diagnose people over the internet for a simple remark. Specially because we are complicated machines and it only considered a condition if it affects a person socially.
Thanks for the reply, very interesting points. I still don't see how you got the idea OP has ADHD from what they wrote and still think (know?) that it will not be a condition unless it hinders them to function based on the DSM.
"A mental disorder is a syndrome characterized by clinically significant disturbance in an individual's cognition, emotion regulation, or behavior...".
"Mental disorders are usually associated with significant distress or disability in social, occupational, or other important activities.".
"Socially deviant behavior ... and conflicts that are primarily between the individual and society are not mental disorders unless the deviance or conflict results from a dysfunction in the individual."
We all have some traits but unless diagnosed we don't have the condition. In my work life I see so many characteristics that are destructive in nature but viewed as normal because of culture. A lot of people still makes remarks about other women or men even if married, stop studying because they are "adults", don't invest money, eat like shit, drink and drive, let others raise their kids, don't exercise, doomscroll tiktok and Instagram, consume way too much, etc, etc. In fact they are exactly what society wants them to be. This people perpetuate the endless cycle of the so called "progress" and are rewarded for it. OP is already ahead of the curve dreaming of escaping onto his ideal world. If you are different from that, or try to be since it is very hard you will get tribalism in return and be labeled as having a condition. If society was made from the majority of people having a condition like ADHD (it could even be a self sufficient social group within a town) it wouldn't even be considered anything, just being normal.
A colleague from work has a condition which makes him take prescribed drugs that he doesn't want to talk about, and based on his behavior he is closeted gay. I live in a very closed minded area so when he came in from afar talking about himself loudly everyone viewed him as very strange. He adapted and now is accepted by everyone but working close with him I know deep down he is still that guy. I still don't know what to make of it. I learned a lot from him but some days he is so drugged out its dangerous, like when we almost crashed the car, since then I am the only one that drives. He hates me for it and I had to be very malleable with him otherwise our relation wouldn't work. I learned to behave to accommodate him as a partner but it is exhausting. I don't know why I am telling this, maybe looking for answers I know no one has. Society made strives forward since mental institutions but I still don't think that drugging everyone out for homogenization is a good strategy. Whoever is different is put on a label and becomes the same
