Programming is one of the most exciting, flow-inducing, mentally stimulating, mathematically and logically enlightening, rewarding activities I do. Programming is one of the most mind-numbing, soul-sucking, procrastination-inducing, lonely, repetitive, mentally exhausting activities I do.

Amen to that. I also feel like there is an 'OCD' part of me that allows me to do the soul sucking stuff, this drains me. I prefer it when the 'creative' part of me is expressing itself, this recharges my batteries.

Pretty sure anyone who has struggled with OCD cringes at hyperbole like this. After you've washed your hands till they bleed, "lol I'm so OCD" gets tiresome. Everyone has quirks, drop the special snowflake shit
