This is why I was convinced up until the last few years that I didn't have it. I'm certainly not fucking hyperactive, so how could I have ADHD? is what I used to think.

A lot of people ~~used to~~ still think this.

And, let us be clear: they judge based on this bullshit view alone. ๐Ÿ–•๐Ÿผ

Think of the 'hyperactivity' as more related to your thoughts. In that everyone has a stream of thoughts going, ours is just overactive. And it's only that some people do actually physically express the hyperactivity.

(Still not the most succinct word for it though)

I can't sit still during break, I can't hold a conversation where the person does not get to the point within 3 seconds, because I can't be holding my breath for 3 seconds.

I like to think of it as the "hyperactive" part being my brain.
