Attention span

not to mention the outer world. Usually if i start feeling like that it means I need to explore something new.

 

Well, no one is "done", I suppose. Just trying to put it in the best way I can. The more I explore my inner self the more I realize what I've always known--I can't play the games any more. I'm sick of superficial small talk and petty social issues. I don't fit in that world and never will.

Actually, I feel like my friends pet dog. Under stimulated to the point where she chews holes in everything for fun.

 

Find something you can sink your teeth into! (pun intended)

There are others out there who are sick of the superficial also and they've formed groups! They pursue interesting things!

 

I woke up less than an hour ago... I don't have an attention span. :coffee:

 

I have a long attention span.I can concentrate on being alive all day long from the minute I wake up to the minute I go to sleep.

 

I don't know. Honestly. It varies according to my interest.
Sometimes I'm just not intereszzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

Depends, to be honest.
I pay more attention to certain things than anyone I know, yet sometimes, the basic things - whatever they may be - I'm just off with the fairies and can't concentrate.

 

Let me be the first to make the joke abou... oh look a shiny obje.... wow did you hear th.... I love chocola.... eeek a mou.... wanna play a game of ch.... what?

 

what was this thread about agai..hey look a squirrel ------>

 

I'm too broke to pay attention.

 

The thing is,some things you NEED to pay attention to,or you end up looking a bit silly.......

 

you sdhould take lyrica or gabapentin, helps a lot with that.

my attention span is decent.

i have a hard time keeping up with information and need to hear it a few times. happens a lot to me at college... :/ then you feel like a twat always asking questions, getting the answer, and STILL not understanding it.

 

Pardon?

tl;dr

This makes me depressed. :computer:

 

My attention span and focus are actually good. I work from home a lot and if not I would never be able to manage to do so.

I will say on my off time if it does not interest me then I am not willing to try to focus on something either. If something engages my thoughts then I can focus without effort.

I am an avid reader and my favourite down time thing is to sit with a book for hours. Music is the same. Films not unless it really captures my interest or imagination.

 

just totally depends on the focus. if it is something specific to me, hours and even days can go by without my noticing anything else, other then to eat, defficate, and sleep when my eyes feel like they're trying to fall out of my head.

this internet is a prime example of that. i spend hours and days on it at a time.
conversely of course, it is extremely limited when it comes to nearly all other sorts of popular amusements. even sex.

i have an attention span for affection of about a half hour at a time. i have an attention span for lessons for learning how to do something that interests me to learn how to do, for maybe an hour and a half or so at a time.

television i usually can't stand for more then five or ten minuets.

most other things that involve human interaction are very nearly nil.

money bores me, other then to have enough to get by, to eat regular and not be homeless. other then that, its for trains and computers, and only very reluctantly for things society insists i have to have to stay out of trouble.

i have many hobbies and interests. all of which are absorbing, not to mention fully engulfing. these are what i live for. i can go on dreaming in my sleep for quite a long time too. which in many ways is a lot like this internet, only it is also like real life, just in a parallel universe where things work a different way.

little furry creatures are about like human affection. fortunately their attention spans are comperable.

so yah, it really totally depends on the context. i don't go into bars because those are totally boring to me too. as are 'mind altering' substances. of ALL sorts.
