Understanding ADHD
ADHD is a neurological condition characterized by patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that interfere with daily functioning or development. It’s more than just difficulty focusing; ADHD affects self-regulation, planning, and the ability to follow through with tasks.
This condition is influenced by genetic and environmental factors and can present challenges in academic, occupational, and social settings.
Recognizing ADHD as a real and manageable condition is crucial for improving outcomes. It’s not a result of poor parenting or lack of willpower but a recognized medical condition that requires a tailored treatment approach.
Symptoms of ADHD
ADHD symptoms are varied and can manifest differently across age groups, including:
Inattention:
- Difficulty sustaining attention in tasks or play
- Often does not seem to listen when spoken to directly
- Struggles to follow through on instructions and fails to finish schoolwork or chores
- Difficulty organizing tasks and activities
- Avoids or dislikes tasks requiring sustained mental effort
Hyperactivity and Impulsivity:
- Fidgets with or taps hands or feet, squirms in seat
- Leaves seat in situations when remaining seated is expected
- Runs about or climbs in situations where it is inappropriate
- Unable to play or engage in activities quietly
- Talks excessively
- Blurts out an answer before a question has been completed
