Hyperactivity doesn’t always involve a body in motion. It can be internal, invisible, quiet. It can manifest as mental fatigue or a buzzing sensation in your chest. It’s restlessness and rumination. It’s that feeling at night when you close your eyes but your mind won’t settle.

“The flip side of impulsivity is creativity. What is creativity but impulsivity gone right? You don’t plan to have a creative thought..... No, new ideas, brilliant new insights, come unbidden, spontaneously, impulsively.” Dr. Ned Halloway, in the film The Disruptors.

Excited to be a researcher on this passion project as a late diagnosed neurodivergent woman with ADHD. It's been a privilege to interview women who shared their experiences and work with a team of neurodivergent researchers. This is a glimpse of our findings so far. news.csu.edu.au/latest-news/...
