How much of a loner and/or outgoing is Modern Peter Parker?

People with ADHD can still focus, it's just that their brain can't self-regulate their focus like in a neurotypical person. They may hyperfocus on trivial things and not focus as much (or at all) on more important things.

I think Peter shows signs of hyperfocusing when working on his science, and in the way he tends to get lost in his head sometimes and not notice a person talking to him (I remember this happening multiple times in the Lee/Ditko run and at least once in the JMS run).

Since we are on this topic, I wrote a more detailed post about it in another thread.



The only thing I would add is that JMS also depicted him as someone who has trouble sleeping at night due to an active mind, which is another ADHD symptom.

That post is awesome and really interesting. I don't know much about neurodivergence myself but would love to learn more about this.
