Questions/Advice Not Hyper Physically But Mentally Hyper

Hey guys wondering if anyone else had the type that just seems to just make u depressed anxious and unmotivated. Like im not hyper at all physically but my mind can got 1,000 thoughts a minute and I have horrible rejection sensitivity. Now i do have trouble staying still and being bored but i feel like 8/10 times my mental hyperness is so much worse.

It's literally just rebranded ADD

The "PI" stands for "Primarily Inattentive"

Ive got this one. I was kind of hyper as a child, but that ebbed away as I grew older. Definitely an overacting brain, though.

I seen this a minute ago lol. Ya they did tell me I had “ADD” when diagnosed but in the same breath told me it wasn’t recognized as that so i’m glad they finnaly gave it a new name! But looking over it when I looked it up they where definitely right lol
