Do you find yourself going back to "admire" your work multiple times?

NSFWGeneral Question/Discussion

I'm somebody who has had issues with pleasing others in the past, and have faced self-esteem issues as well. That said, everything that I did well, I would go back to it and admire multiple times a day. It's like that thing people do like going to the fridge over and over seeing if something new will magically appear.

For example, when I use Reddit and leave comments, I would go to my profile multiple times in a single sitting just to look at all the comments I left on that day (I should use Reddit less).

Unless it's something that I genuine stress and have shame about, then I wouldn't look at it and try to forget it exists.

Is this behaviour ADHD related, or no?
