ADHD

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a condition that affects both kids and adults, marked by ongoing inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These symptoms disrupt daily life and development. Managing ADHD effectively means taking a whole-person approach, considering both mental factors and the surrounding environment.

ADHD symptoms can present differently in each individual, often making it difficult to diagnose. Symptoms generally fall into two categories: inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity. These symptoms can lead to significant challenges in academic, professional, and social settings, affecting overall quality of life.
