Neurodivergence and art

Liandro
Hey, guys, I’m wondering about neurodivergent artists here in the Proko community. Do any of you guys deal with ADHD, autism, giftedness or other kinds of neuropsychological conditions? How does your way of being impact your art? And how do you use art as a way to cope with an atypical brain functioning?

I have dealt with adhd and ocd and it hinders my work. Art demands mental focus and when I find myself unable to focus I end up putting my projects on hold until I feel better. I also have episodes of insomnia sometimes which leaves me too tired during the day. On such days as well I might have put things on hold because I can't focus.
