HF autist, ADHD but sorta medicated(probably too low of a dose).

I’ve been trying to acknowledge/identify something that I feel has been having a lot of negative effects on my life lately. When I’m working on learning something or solving a problem, I’ll often hit a point of frustration where all my interest to move past it is suddenly lost.

This will be something like dealing with something annoying at work. But also in creative pursuits, ie I slacked on practicing guitar for a couple weeks and now some knowledge I had is just gone and I’m frustrated I need to start a few steps back.

Things like games with few save points were never fun for me. On many occasions, I’d drop a game completely after forgetting to save and losing hours of progress.

Basically once I get this feeling of frustration, I glaze over and start feeling really tired and annoyed. Like I hit a wall and the only thing that stops it is going to sleep. A few times I’ve straight up gone to bed hours early just to avoid simmering in the frustration.
