Understanding ADHD and ADD

ADHD and ADD manifest in various ways, with three main subtypes:

2. Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Type

3. Combined Type

Recognizing symptoms is crucial:

- Inattention: Difficulty focusing, forgetfulness, avoiding tasks requiring concentration.

- Hyperactivity: Fidgeting, nonstop talking, constant motion.

- Impulsivity: Impatience, frequent interruptions, risk-taking.

Effective diagnosis and treatment are pivotal for managing symptoms and realizing potential.

- Work-related productivity, focus, and organization.

- Strained relationships due to impulsiveness.

- Increased risks for accidents and substance abuse.
