    Edit: because of the other comment, I thought this was c/ADHD. So the text reads a bit weird. Sorry.

    Original: Firstly, sorry, I’m commenting as a person who doesn’t have ADHD (that I know of). But I always feel a certain way when people in general say, that there’s nothing to do. Now, I don’t know in which capacity ADHD affects you in creating or finding things to do. But I feel like, there could always be something to do.

    Here are a few examples:

    • make a wreath out of flowers
    • practice your handstand
    • guess cloud shapes
    • take a plunge in the lake
    • let flower petals float on the lake
    • built one of those stone towers that hikers always do

    Or honestly, hiking back sounds like a good idea. Half an hour is an acceptable amount of time to stay at the peak/ any resting spot.

      Those are all things that could be fun for a few minutes, but without something more stimulating/engaging, I would start to feel agitated in this environment after a little while. I’m sure I could make something to do, but that would be unpleasant for me.

      And yes, hiking would be fine, but the meme was about being in that location with untreated ADHD.
