Understanding Adult ADHD

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a condition that affects both children and adults. While often associated with childhood, ADHD persists into adulthood for many individuals. Individuals can enjoy a fulfilling life without their symptoms impacting their day-to-day life, provided they get the right treatment. 

Adult ADHD manifests through core symptoms like inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. However, these symptoms often present differently in adults compared to children.

Living with undiagnosed ADHD can significantly impact:

  • Mental Health - Strong link to anxiety, depression, and other conditions.
  • Daily Life - Procrastination, forgetfulness, and difficulty managing tasks.
  • Relationships - Emotional struggles, impulsivity, and time management issues.
  • Work/Education - Challenges with focus, organization, and task completion.
