    I sometimes want to hit my head on the desk (when it is over zoom with no camera) while trying to hold myself back.

    My wife has ADHD and some wicked rejection dysphoria. I feel bad interrupting because sometimes it makes her feel really badly, but I swear she could talk for an hour without pausing for breath.

    I definitely do the same thing when I’m talking about something I’m passionate about though, so like… live and let live.

    You need to gesture like you want to talk, it’s kind of a lean and eye contact thing, open mouth as well.
