Planet Neuro Divergent

Hyperfocus is described by ADDitude journal as “an intense fixation on an interest or activity for an extended period of time. People who experience hyperfocus often become so engrossed they block out the world around them.” This also means that they become so engrossed in something they are doing that they end up becoming completely unaware of things taking place around them. While it isn’t exactly a deficit of attention, it can be an issue when having to readjust their attention to something they have to do. They may find particular ordinary tasks hard to focus on, while others may be incredibly engrossing.
