Just learned how to copewith it by finding things that stimulate/calm me in different ways.

reading books about existentialism calms me..bartending allows me to do many things at once without being rude altho I fidget a lot. Can't sit still for extended periods of time.

Many ppl claim they have it but it needs to be defined as to the extremity and many dr's are too quick to prescribe meds..it doesn't do anything but make ppl stoned or in a zombie state imo

some ppl just dont' know how to cope with it so they are al over the place.
