Right ... But this has been a mystery I've struggled with all my life,

There are a lot of frustrations with being as unproductive as I was. The
ability to keep my job is a big deal to me. The ability to function
while doing everyday tasks is also a big deal. The ability to be able to
follow through on hobby projects is a big deal.
Yes-- productivity does not mean happiness. The goal is to get myself
functioning properly. if I had been diagnosed in childhood, my life now
would definitely be different.
Some of my biggest frustrations are that I'm constantly forgetting
important things. I tend to say I'll do something and never follow
through. (That is very frustrating to others around me ...) I sit down
with every intent to do something really neat, and I fizzle out after a
couple of days into the project. It's why, if you look, you see a lot of
starts and works in progress, but really no finished projects.
But, I do certainly understand what you're saying. What I hate right now
is how when the medication wears off, I lack the focus and drive that I
had during the day, and go back to being completely scattered.
