What is it?

This is often called internal hyperactivity. It is the feeling of having twenty browser tabs open at once. Your mind jumps from one thought to the next without a pause button.

Reviewing every mistake you made during the day

Why does this happen?

The ADHD brain has a different way of handling dopamine. This chemical helps your prefrontal cortex act like a brake system. In your brain, the brakes are a bit weak. This makes it hard to filter out extra thoughts or quiet the Default Mode Network. This network is the part of the brain that wanders when you are not focused.
