Impulsiveness is the tendency to act quickly without thinking about the consequences. It often leads to spontaneous decisions that can be risky or unwise. People who are impulsive may struggle to control their urges, which can affect their relationships, work, and overall well-being. This behavior is commonly associated with certain psychological conditions, such as Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and bipolar disorder. Impulsiveness can also be influenced by environmental factors, like stress or peer pressure. Understanding and managing impulsiveness can help individuals make more thoughtful choices and improve their decision-making skills.
