Hypergraphia is a condition wherein a person has an intense desire to write and is compulsively driven to write, regardless of the quality or content of their writing. Some synonyms for hypergraphia include graphomania, excessive writing, logorrhea, and scriptomania. Detailed descriptions or intricate details could also be considered synonyms, as these are common traits associated with hypergraphia. In some cases, hypergraphia is linked with conditions such as epilepsy, mania, or obsessive-compulsive disorder. While excessive writing may not necessarily be harmful, compulsions related to hypergraphia can have negative impacts on social, professional, and personal life.
