hiperaktivitásos

Hiperaktivitásos, more commonly known as hyperactivity, is a symptom characterized by excessive physical movement and restlessness. It is often associated with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), though it can also be present in other conditions or as a transient behavior in children. Individuals experiencing hyperactivity may find it difficult to sit still, constantly fidget, or talk excessively. This can manifest as squirming, tapping, or moving around even in situations where it is inappropriate. The urge to move can be so strong that it interferes with their ability to focus on tasks or engage in quiet activities.

The causes of hyperactivity are complex and are believed to involve a combination of genetic, neurological, and environmental factors. It is not a sign of willful misbehavior but rather a neurological difference. While often observed in childhood, hyperactivity can persist into adolescence and adulthood, though its presentation may change. In adults, it might be less about overt running and more about an internal feeling of restlessness or difficulty relaxing. Diagnosis of ADHD, which includes hyperactivity as a core symptom, typically involves a thorough assessment by a qualified healthcare professional. Treatment approaches vary and may include behavioral therapies, educational support, and sometimes medication, aiming to manage the symptoms and improve daily functioning.
