One think we can concur is that each and everyone of us has hyperfixations, some have permanent ones, others have cyclic ones but it’s one of the things that makes us who we are and makes as happy.

My hiperfixations tend to be related to media, a tv series, a book series or about medical cases/diseases, etc. My 5 year hyperfixates (for now) on flags, countries, capitals and car brands and brands in general.

I try to stay away from some hyperfixations that cause me too much anxiety like true crime and real disasters (stampedes, wars, earthquakes, etc)

What are yours? And feel free to share some knowledge!

Mania (vsrg) is an hyperfixation I am trying to avoid- I am more trying to train my brain atm and maybe will return back to mania for that reason

Neurology and AI are stuff I like a lot, I would like to think that AI can have emotions and soul since neural networks are an entropical system, similar to the brain pretty much
