📖What is ADHD?
ADHD, or Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that interfere with functioning or development. It typically begins in childhood, though many individuals continue to experience symptoms into adulthood, often with a shift in how symptoms present. The condition affects a person's ability to focus, organize tasks, and regulate impulses, which can impact academic, occupational, and social functioning if unaddressed. With appropriate diagnosis and management, individuals with ADHD can lead highly successful and productive lives.
