Newly diagnosed. Does anyone else do this?

Rant/Vent

I was recently diagnosed with combination ADHD and I’ve been reflecting on my entire existence (as one does). I have noticed this about myself a loooong time ago and always wondered why I do this. I tend to crush on people really easily. I’m a straight female and nothing gives me more satisfaction and happiness than finding a new crush. Whether it’s at work, the gym, my neighborhood, the park, you name it. It seriously gives me life which is so pathetic to say but I can’t help it. Like there’s been days I wouldn’t see my crush at work and I would feel like my whole world was flipped upside down but the moment I see them? I was on cloud nine. Diving back into my fantasies and living in my own delusional world. I really feel like this has to be related to ADHD and me seeking dopamine? Idk. I don’t drink or smoke or do anything so this is my vice I guess.
