To be clear, I did play instruments as a kid (trumpet, drums), I just stopped early and didn't explore others much. Probably mostly my ADHD, as I still pick up and drop hobbies like it's my job.
Currently learning guitar, but am using my fiancee's and only get like 30m/week of practice.
Haha it's the same for me with my ADHD. I have way too many hobbies and some of them are very expensive (e.g., woodworking and coffee). I found that it's not that I lose interest in my hobbies, it's just that as time goes on, it becomes harder to ignore inconveniences in hobbies. If I try to fix those inconveniences as much as possible and keep learning new things, I don't really lose interest. E.g., with my current espresso basket, the fit is so poor that knocking the puck out also knocks out the basket. This minor inconvenience could lead me to quit making espresso unless I just simply get a new basket.
