Why do people with ADHD change jobs frequently?

• Because it is critically important for them to have new information constantly. (If the project is long-standing and routine, I’m just a cog, I have no incentive to get great pleasure or achieve something — this is not the norm, I have to look for something). This is actually true for many people.
• They cannot stand criticism and greatly dramatize such situations — Rejection Sensitive Disforia . (If someone scolded me — he doesn’t respect me — I shouldn’t be here.)
• It is important for them to receive positive feedback ( Recognition Sensitive Euphoria ). There is no admiration from someone — and they feel not valued enough. (No praise — I’m stuck, I’m fading, lethargy, lack of dopamine, fading, everyone forgot about me)
• They cannot set a long-term goal for themselves. Their brain always works in the short term; the goal should not be achieved in many steps.

The chain starts: I have no growth at this job — my salary is increased less often than I expect after my contribution to the project — this job (the people) are not good enough — I have the right to develop and look for a new job.

What about your new job?

The following sequence of events: they admire me at interviews, they initially value me and offer me more money, the project will be interesting, I will grow — and there is not a single reason to stay in my old place.
