I think some of us just have ants in our pants a lot. If not meds-related, it could be personality related and/or certainly bipolar disorder related.

I've mostly been more on the "up" side in my life. I've slowed down a bit as I've aged, and with bipolar medications, but before, I was all over the place. If not constantly moving, I'd almost be violently typing at what seemed to be 100 mph. I'm a fast typist, and used to be even faster. I used to do a lot of writing in my old jobs. I would say that I didn't pace as much as speed. Such quickness often made me impatient waiting for others. If someone blocked my way, I rammed through. I jokingly call myself Speedy Gonzalez to my husband's Slow Poke Rodriguez (these are cartoon characters for anyone not in the know).
