Are you able to hyper-fixate on things you need to get completed? I rely on that heavily in my life. Without, I am as good as useless.

I've noticed that stimulants can make me hyper-fixate, which often times, can be very beneficial. I relied on hyperfocus prior to being medicated, and it seems like medication is just a on switch for hyperfocusing. At least, some of the time...

Hyper-fixation is good only when you fixate on something that is necessary. My hyper-fixation is always on some side project.
