The Pros and Cons

Hyperfocus.  This term is very hard to describe to  a non-ADHDer.  As I sit at my kitchen table  with a  mountain of homework to , I decide to research my next day planner purchase online- for TWO HOURS.  Yes, I know this is a complete and utter waste of time, but I cannot pull myself away from this task.  To me, this is hyperfocus.  Call it having a one track mind that's very  stubborn. This often leads to hours passing by and nothing productive getting done ( except wasting time).

There have been a few times where I have been blessed enough to have been hyperfocused  on my schoolwork or paperwork.  More often than not, I tend to get hyperfocused on something that i should NOT be doing!
