ADHD & Creativity? - NoahWatchmaker - 12-27-2015
Do you think ADHD may contribute to some type of creativity?

I have some kind of Attention Deficit disorder, and I should be taking accelerated classes, so I get super bored in the majority of my courses and do my own thing. This usually leads to something I put on github or release on a forum, so under the right circumstances, I'd say it does.

Since I have this, it can either go two ways.
1.) You start to do something creative, but get bored very easily and shit out on it
2.) You start to do something creative, and can't stop.

So, it's like no focus or super-focus? No in-between?

Well, at least for me.
I don't talk to a lot of others, so I wouldn't really know. But it has been like this for me all of my life.

A lot of people say they directly correlate. I am extremely ADHD, but I function very well with it. I am able to do my job well and get more done than people who do not have it. I can multi-task.
Creativity however, I have not an ounce in my body.

When I think of adhd I think of autism and those white people you see on cringe compilations.
