Liberty, I had no idea what Maladaptive Disorder was. After Googling it, that sounds very similar to my situation. My psychiatrist diagnosed me with severe ADHD, so that's what I'm taking meds for, but many times I find myself being unable to stop concentrating on something, rather than completely losing focus.
Speaking of ADHD: that's actually the biggest reason why, despite my love of writing, I have a hard time reading. Especially books with long paragraphs and small text. Without thinking, I'll either a) skip ahead a few sentences, paragraphs, or even pages, or b) mentally recreate the situation I'm reading about but using original characters I made up on the spot.
It's only when I'm actually writing/making games that I can actually focus for longer than 10 minutes.

P.S. I've got another fun fact about NeverSilent: he's sometimes silent.
Lies and slander!
Okay, to be fair, on the internet this is true. But that is because writing (especially in English) is much more time-consuming and exhausting for me than just talking. Also, I hate making mistakes or not getting my point across precisely enough, so I spend a lot of time looking up words, proofreading and revising everything I write. So sometimes, I just don't have the motivation or energy to write something when I should.
Verbal communication however I can engage in for hours and hours non-stop. I really enjoy talking to others and discussing all kinds of things, and I can usually remember and understand stuff better if I talk about it. This goes so far that for example at university, I often get bored or frustrated during classes without active participation.

NeverSilent, I have to constantly remind myself that English isn't your first language. I would never have known this if you hadn't said anything. You're better at English than many native English speakers I know.
Aww, thanks, Nova. That's really nice of you. Though, considering I am a student of English, it would be pretty bad if I weren't on an acceptable level by now. But it's very reassuring to hear that you think my English is good.
By the way, I study British English. And yes, that includes spoken English as well. Now picture a German guy - who hears lots of American English around him every day - attempting to imitate a British accent...

Can only echo that, your English is top-notch!
Look at me, I keep talking without a care and everyone is okay with that, hehe.
Fun fact, I love huge parts of the lolita style and dream of getting myself a classy dress. One day.

I knew there was a reason I liked your style NeSi.
I'm definitely a cheerful person but when I do feel negative emotion I tend to prefer to express it in anger (over sadness or any other mood)
Anger's my go-to negative emotion. I make a lot of noise, yell at things a lot, scream on twitter... then go back to normal XDD
I just noticed this kind of recently.

> I hate rats. I hate them so much that I will kill them when they get within my reach. No kidding. I will really crush them underfoot if given the slightest of chances. Can't prove this in any way though, so...
You and me probably wouldn't get along so well if this is true.

Even though I'm pale as a ghost, I have a lot of freckles from playing out in the Aussie sun during the summers of my youth. I never tan, I lobster.
THIS. My skin has been appallingly crappy for my entire life. If I spend more than a microsecond in hard sunlight without protection my entire body goes supernova.
I'm like a precise robot when thinking, walking, and conceptualizing lots of data.
I support the metric system, and the old long-scale number system with "milliards".

H-Hey, I hate rats because they ruined so many of my stuff. For as long as I can remember, rats have ravaged everything I own: books, toys, gadgets, clothes. I lost so much that I finally snapped and resorted to violence. Though I suppose that's what one gets if they live on a rice field :(

"British English" is such a redundant moniker. It's just English.
Fine. Received Pronunciation (RP), then.

Sure you don't mean mice? Because those will eat you out of house and home if you don't keep a few cats around. >.<;
I mean, they're cute as fuck but damn if they don't eat double their body size.
Hmmm, I can't think of any facts that are really interesting about myself. I'm double-jointed, I space out a lot, and I feel sleepy all the time, but that's about it XD
@Liberty> No, they're actual rats. Black to dark-grey, and about the size of a shoe. You know, the types that live in rice fields? They actually eat rice stalks (and sometimes frogs as well), but wreak havoc in homes just for the sake of it. At least that's how I feel.
Though thinking about it, I'm not sure if I can tell a rat from a mouse unless of the mouse is white. They're both nuisances, regardless.
Also we can't have cats, because we have 5 dogs. Curses ;へ;
