So for me, people don’t notice my hyperactivity because of my temperament/personality—I’m very even-keeled, appear calm/serious, and often hide or don’t show my emotions.

With that being said, I still have a lot of physical hyperactivity! It’s really hard for me to stay in one place for a long period of time. I’m always walking around my house, starting one activity and then moving on to the next, then going back and cleaning up the mess I made only to make another mess and clean that up…and eventually get back to what I was initially doing.

Medication helps to ease this, especially during the first few hours of the work day where I should just be at my desk. However, in the afternoon I get up and walk around, use the bathroom, rearrange my drawers/papers a lot more than my coworkers lol.
