I wouldnt say its a problem. But i have this condition, maybe it comes like once a month, and its completely random. I think it is caused by not enough sleep, but my mind and body will just completely seperate. I have control over my actions, but i will do whatever i want, and i'll be completely comfortable, i'll think out-loud, say whatever is on my mind, I'll approach random strangers, and actually be sincere and have a good conversation, when usually i'll be kind of dull in conversation. If it happens during work or class, everyone becomes attracted to me and gathers around, because i'll start saying random funny things or just start doing brazen actions, and its like i have all the attention. Its such a great feeling, i think im sometimes dreaming. It has effect on my physically too. When i get home, ill blair up the music and feel the urge to work out. (Drums n BAss rulz!) im not lookin for attention, or any kind of wanna-be funny feedbacks. Im starting to think this is some kind of condition, because my attention span will be decreased, and i wont give a !@#$ about what anyone is saying or doing.Its like things are flying through my mind 10x faster than normal. REally hard to explain, just looking to see if this is an existing condition

Thanks for answering sincerely. I usually get some wise guy remark. I would think so too, but i recall having this mindset ver very rarely back when i was 14 or so(im 18 now) except when it happened, i wouldnt talk to people, or have people to talk to. The best way to compare it, and im sorry for using this as an example, but would be the mask. Its like i just let loose, im trying to think of symptoms, because im gonna ask my uncle( a doc) when i have it, ive noticed i never get hungry, and if i try to eat(im trying to bulk up) food that i really like doesnt taste good.

After compiling the lists of symptoms for each subject, the authors tabulated that the most common early symptoms were typically in the social/behavioral arena. The most common was decreased social/occupational functioning (over 70%) and the second was social withdrawal (just over 50%). From these tabulations, the authors created 5 overall factors to further analyze the data. These factors took combinations of symptoms into account based on complicated mathematical formulas. They can be summarized into the following five categories: dysphoria, functioning, psychobiological, preoccupation, irritability/aggression.

THis is from schizophrenia.com it sounds like the opposite of what i have

ADD affects the person all day, every day. It's not some once-off thing like you describe. I have no idea what your condition is all about.

well the reason why i thought it was add because i've met a few people with add, and all of them are very outgoin and relaxed, and usually when i have my condition, my attention span is very very short.
