So that happens to me a lot and usually it goes away after a few minutes (sometimes more like ten) and it feels like I can't move fast enough but I have not yet found a cure

Guys my ADHD is causing me to be anxious for no reason and I have no idea how to calm down. I'm in class, playing with a scrunchie my friend left behind, and I can't stop jiggling my legs and my mind is going a million miles a minute. Help.

Can you get water?
Also maybe breathe
4 in
Hold 4
Out 4
Maybe get somewhere quiet

If your teacher will let you

It's pretty quiet in the room I'm listening to music, and I just had lunch so I should be fine.

Oh good

Your blood sugar was probably low and when you ate it spiked, causing your body to go into hyper-drive. Its normal. :) Just focus on relaxing each muscle in your body and take deep breaths. The extra oxygen in your blood will help you even out.

But this has never happened before. I ate breakfast. Didn't eat anything super sugary.

I love that we have an actual medical expert here it's so helpful

I agree with Moony

Blood sugar doesn't exactly mean sugar per se. It's more that your body was lacking in nutrients so when you gave it some it went "OH MY GOD. EXCITE."

Your levels fluctuate during the day so even if you had breakfast your levels could have sunken low.
Like I said, it's really normal. :)

Weird. but then why has this never happened before? (ignore my history of 2 years of starving myself because hey, depression)

It probably has. You've just never paid attention. Usually when you're randomly hyper/ slap happy this is the cause.

I’m at the doctor and I have to get surgery in November! Yay. But I will be able to walk normally afterwards except for the cast for 6 weeks on both legs and then 6 weeks of leg braces…

Oh, as someone who's had a knee brace for nearly two years: It's fine
And surgery is actually fun!

I’m tired af because I have really bad allergies atm because of the seasons changing.

They have to slit half of my Achilles’ tendon and it sound so gross!

They had to drill my bone, if it makes you feel better!
