people with adhd, is it possible to hyper fixate on people? maybe a celebrity or even just a friend or something? i feel like 90% of my hyper fixations are on people but idk if that’s an adhd thing or something else.

      celebs!!! i get so hyper fixated on certain people and suddenly i can’t think of anything else. it feels impossible not to talk about them to everyone around me too! i totally get what you mean

      Oh yeah! Being a sports fan I love watching all pro sports (mainly mens sports because accessiblity 🙄) but I hyperfixate on both sports and certain players. Doesn’t matter how good or bad the player is I just grab them and essentially put them in my front overalls pocket

      yesss i used to do this all the time. actually before i realized i was a lesbian i would hyperfixate on men that i thought i liked and mistook that for attraction. u can hyperfixate on anything!

      sometimes I do this with friendships/new friends. I never even connected it to my adhd before! This is so interesting
