People with executive function (ADD ADHD etc) often experience reward deficiancy. Basically even if they finish a task, it is hard for them to take pleasure in what they have accomplished.

Sometimes stimulant treatment can reverse this effect, whereby a patent treated succesfully can take more pleasure in completing tasks.
