I feel this deep in my soul. As an AuDHD'er, I have my main obsession which I can always return to (BBC Sherlock) and a continuous rotation of new, short term hyper-fixations. At the moment this has included: gem faceting (I'm a sucker for geometry and working with my hands), home brewing (never gonna do it, but love to learn about it) and ultra-marathons (in a sense of watching Youtube videos about people that run them, there is no way in hell I am capable of such feats).
Home alcohol brewing? Cuz I do home coffee brewing and it scratches the etch just enough so that I don't go out in a frenzy and intoxicate my self with adulterated alcohol 🥴
Yeah, I was referring to alcohol, but coffee is by far the better choice ;) I got really into cold brew coffee a few years ago, it's really delicious and way better than iced coffee in my opinion. The only downside is you need to plan ahead if want it, and I'm terrible at remembering stuff like that.
