That need for crisis…and hate…and focus

 

That, perhaps, explains much of the A.D.D. life…that need for crisis. It’s as if you are not alive unless there is a crisis: job related; family related, politically related (like a crisis of who to vote for…as if there were a real choice). But the point is that there must be crisis…tension…some sort of angst. And interestingly there is a need to hate something…or someone…just as long as there is hate. It seems to be that, for an ADDer, “hate” is a life force, it is the central engine, the motivating force for many things. But the other aspect of it is that it becomes a focal point for excess energy and the remaining energy can be used on the particular task at hand.
