Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. Symptoms may include difficulty focusing, disorganization, restlessness, and interrupting others. ADHD can impact education, work, and relationships but responds well to treatment, including behavioral strategies, therapy, and, when appropriate, medication to enhance focus and self-regulation.
“Living with ADHD felt chaotic—constant distractions, unfinished tasks, and frustration. With therapy and medication, I’ve learned to manage my focus and energy, turning challenges into strengths. Life feels more organized and fulfilling now.”
In undiagnosed adults, ADHD often manifests as persistent difficulties with focus, organization, and time management, leading to frustration in work, relationships, and daily life. Adults may struggle with forgetfulness, procrastination, impulsivity, or an inability to complete tasks. Hyperactivity in adults can appear as inner restlessness or a constant need to stay busy. Emotional dysregulation, such as intense frustration or impatience, is also common.
