in gabor mate's book, the cause of adhd was that attention was conditional but predictable. e.g. being pretty, or getting an A on a test would invoke attention from parentshttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1287272314615160832?s=20 …
subsequently, a proposed "cure" is to provide attention randomly, creating an attention surplus worldview where attention really does grow from trees and falls from the sky
the inability to maintain concentration outside of a flow state is due to the emptiness that is felt once the low hanging flow state experiences are masteredhttps://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1404670973383569409?s=20 …
flow experiences are low hanging b/c mastery has incremental returns. e.g. you probably can't tell the difference between a super good and a super super good and a super super super good tennis player unless u know their names
so the ability to maintain flow at higher and higher levels is actually very similar to the ability to find love in the mundane (like japanese artisans)https://twitter.com/a_yawning_cat/status/1405918296730325003?s=20 …
this may explain why at every "you are the greatest" ceremony the individual will first thank their parents being raised in a loving home provides years of experience finding the love in the mundane world of washing dishes, cleaning up poop, chopping wood, and carrying water
"ah yes, the secret to karate is to move my hands the same way i paint the fench and wash the cars!"
trying to plow through to mastery by finding ways of increasing flow experience probably doesn't work the same way trying to go really really fast doesn't work the air resistance increases exponentially to the linear thrust produced. you are fighting math.
even for techniques that boil down to microdosing meth or some other substance, there may be longer term damage or other externalities like not being able to know what your "true passion" is. e.g. if you are good at everything equally, u feel like machine
this is the stereotypical "got in harvard acing every test in every subject to earn mommy daddy love but now they don't know what to do with the rest of their life" trope
how might one balance this against the sufferer's inattention to boundaries i.e., inappropriate/unhealthy attachment to the source of the attention surplus
it's difficult, the source has to differentiate, e.g. love from different sources one ingrained, attachment styles are difficult to change. also why puppy socialization in the first few months is so important
