ADHD sucks. Probably not news to anyone who has to live with it. But, I’ve found that sometimes I can do relatively benign things that let me get some fun out of my little defective brain.
For instance, today the wife and kids are gone for a couple hours and I have the house all to myself. In these rare situations, I like to put an AC/DC record on and turn the stereo up nice and loud. The effect is hard to describe but it feels like scratching an itch in my brain. Hence the post title.
Thinking about this got me curious. What do you all do to get your dopamine fix?
I go from sim to sim, but at the moment I’m playing mostly AMS2 and LMU. A year or two ago, I was playing nothing but ACC, and I’ve also spent a fair bit of time in raceroom, dabbled in AC, F1 games, iRacing, etc
As for preferred race format, I prefer to race against AI, if possible, 30-60 mins, sometimes shorter if I have less time and/or energy. Depends how familiar I am with the car/track as well. Recently I’ve just been lapping in different cars, trying out all the new content that has come out since I last played (like the 2005 GT1 cars in AMS2 - very nice)
If the AI is good, I can get behind that. But then, I say the same for people. I just don’t like noob lobbies where passing someone means dodging them trying to ram you off of the track.
Feel free to DM me if you want to play some AMS2 or Raceroom on steam at some point! Idt i have ams downloaded at teh moment, but was considering making space for it anyway. I’m also open to ACC and (if it works on linux now) LMU, but again, I’d need to DL them again.
