    Getting interrupted “real quick” while I’m in the zone.

    To not understate, everyone hates that, yes, but I am actively done for the day. I don’t want to talk to anyone anymore, I lose my appetite, I don’t want to play my games, I don’t want to finish work.

    I’m done, and the task that I was doing is at an extreme risk of never being completed ever again.

    I make my space to be “in the zone” with so much effort, don’t break it, it’s sacred to me.

    Imagine watching a magical 3 hour movie and 2 hours in somebody cuts the power, and if you want to watch it again you have to start from the beginning

      I hear ya. I have a ballooning collection of unfinished games because I lost that “zone” for too long or was interrupted too frequently.

        Exactly. I mean, I know it’s a first world problem but I suffer being both a completionist and neurodivergent.
