The story

It’s really weird but for months now the only thing i’ve really been able to think about are just worries and this one show. I don’t know if this is the place to share this kind of stuff but i need to just say this. It feels like one of the only things i seem to talk about- everything is a reference. I keep catching myself in class not focusing because i’m thinking about the show and doodling the characters in my school books to help me understand the stuff. It’s mildly embarrassing now that i admit it, but it’s the truth. And it even MORE awkward since nobody i know irl likes it as much as i do.

I’m not sure why i can’t stop thinking about it. One of my friends suspects it’s like a hyper fixation, but i don’t think im neurodivergent. I don’t even know if hyper fixations are only for neurodivergent people (i haven’t done much research on it, sorry if i sound ignorant) but oh my goodness the show is EVERYWHERE. Is this just some sort of normal thing that happens? I mean, it’s not entirely bad, but i fear i’m annoying people around me with how much i like the show and i worry for my grades.

Wow!!! I must respectfully disagree with your narrative…. It seems like you're portraying this intense interest in a negative light, when in reality, it's a perfectly normal phenomenon 🎉. Passion fuels creativity, innovation, and problem-solving skills💡. Consider how many times people have been so captivated by a new topic or show that they momentarily overlook other things – it's a common occurrence! After all, Winston Churchill said, "Attitude is the little thing that makes a big difference" 🧐👇. Embrace your enthusiasm; it's this fervor that might lead you to unexpected opportunities. Trust me, you're on a wild ride!!! It doesn't necessarily imply you have a hyperfixation!!! It's just that sometimes we get super excited about stuff, and that's totally fine;;;; Keep smiling and carry on your journey of discovery and fascination 🤗✨.

Okay, let me chime in here... Honestly, I kinda disagree with how you're seeing this;; It's not cool to get so wrapped up in one thing that you start slipping in other areas, like school, you know?? I get being super into a show - I've been there, trust me 😅. But seriously, it's not all sunshine and rainbows when you start zoning out in class and your grades might be taking a hit.


It's like, I've had my fair share of obsessions with things like video games or bands, but I always tried to keep a balance!!!! Can't let one thing take over your whole life. Maybe it's not as "normal" as you think if it's affecting you this much. Maybe try to chill out a bit on the show and focus more on school stuff. You gotta get your priorities straight and not let a TV show rule your life. Get a grip, cause you got more important stuff to deal with 🙄.
