What is ADHD?

ADHD is more than just an inability to focus or sit still—it’s a neurodevelopmental disorder that can influence many aspects of life. While it’s often diagnosed in childhood, ADHD can persist into adulthood, presenting challenges in various areas like work performance, personal relationships, and self-esteem.

 

Symptoms of ADHD

ADHD symptoms generally fall into two categories: inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity. Here’s a closer look:

  • Inattention: Difficulty sustaining attention, making careless mistakes, organizing tasks, forgetfulness in daily activities.
  • Hyperactivity-Impulsivity: Fidgeting, inability to stay seated, excessive talking, difficulty waiting for turns, interrupting others.
