When I’m in the zone (hyperfocusing), I can stay awake for 20+ hours doing something. But just because I’m not experiencing symptoms doesn’t mean I’m totally fine, lol. It’s incredibly stressful to keep up with the demands I make of myself even when I’m able to do it.
100% this. Coming out of an extended hyper focus is not only exhausting, it’s untenable. The burnout feels awful.
Disregarding your physical needs in pursuit of dopamine for 20+ hours is a symptom.
