      It can be bad for me. I can be focused too though. If I get distracted too much when I’m in focused mode it get so irritated.

      If I'm in a quiet place I can hyper focus if there is any single distraction, sound or movement around me my brain turns to static and there is 0 focus

      depression and other mood disorders can affect focus too - in a vacuum adhd generally has both hyperfocus and lack of focus but depression can cause lack of interest in things that you would otherwise hyperfocus on. might could explain why you're always distracted? just a thought

      It depends on what I'm doing. If I enjoy it I can stay focused for hours. If I don't I lose interest very quickly.

      I always get distracted doesn't matter where I am or who I'm with

      I go from being too focus to barely focused at all. For me it just depends on the environment I’m in.

      it depends; if I'm in a loud place or overestimulated, It can get very difficult to pay attention to the task at hand. I also tend to have racing thoughts, also causing a difficulty paying attention what I'm doing, and I also tend to fidget which can distract me. on the contrary, if I'm in a good place mentally and physically I usually can focus. however sometimes I get too focused to the point where I don't respond to anyone unless someone's like yelling or something

        @RiverSpacePirate for me Im consistently easily distracted

          @Emma_4 yeah, as I said it's a 50/50 for me. I can either get so focused where I become unresponsive, or so unfocused where I end up doing a million things besides what I meant to do
