ADHD or Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is a developmental disability that is usually first diagnosed during childhood. However, there are also instances where people only get a diagnosis in their adulthood. Individuals who have the condition may display signs of hyperactivity, inattention, and/or impulsivity. This can interfere with their ability to concentrate on certain activities for longer periods of time and their overall function.
While ADHD is considered a lifelong condition, individuals diagnosed with it can manage their symptoms through different treatment options. With the support of behavioral health professionals, they can learn coping strategies and undergo treatment that may involve medications.
