I am a hyper person for as far as I can remember and have lots of energy, but I find that at work maybe I am a little too bubbly and others may get the wrong idea-actually I have had someone get the wrong idea, something to the effect that I was being too friendly. How can I tone this down without making it obvious?

Play some sports to take out your extra energy.

It sounds like you're a fun person to be around in the wrong line of work (or at least the wrong office), but if you really want to tone it down I can suggest some herbal supplements that might help. Lower doses of Valerian Root can help regulate the excitement and hyper-ness, or St. John's Wort is good as well (though it takes a while to start fully working). Other than that try to do something outside of the office to use that positive energy to its maximum, and then you may be able to reserve it a little more at work.

Light up a lavender candle or incense before you leave for work
Drink chamomile tea (and lay off the caffeine)
Do as much walking as possible before getting into work
Learn to meditate--and do so when you start feeling hyper
Get a lot of fresh air at lunch time (and walk more)
Carry something small with a lavender fragrance in your pocket--sniff it when you start getting hyper
You can try Valerian Root supplements--they relax you
SleepyTime Extra Tea with Valerian - drink it at work (much weaker than the supplements)
Don't eat chocolate before or during work hours

Wow-- you are asking to tone down your exuberance and love of life? your enthusiasm and passion? your friendliness and love of people? Girl, there are piles of people who would PAY you if there was a chance of having an energy-passion transplant from your surplus!! But, just to honour your request, if you want to gear down a little just so as you can fit in a more sedate environment for some of your day, you might want to try the energy therapy called e f t that will help you to release some of your anxieties and be true to the real you.

Answer me this: What's wrong in being "obvious". Sometimes, in situations as you infer, being "obvious" is the best, and sometimes only way to "tone down" "misunderstandings". Be responsible. Be obvious. God Bless you.
