Adult attention-deficit disorder (ADHD) is a well known neurodevelopmental disorder that starts in childhood and is characterized by difficulties in impulse control, hyperactivity and or restlessness, and a reduced ability to concentrate or focus for extended periods of time. Many feel inundated by external stimuli, thereby making it difficult to filter out background noise and concentrate on a singular task.
Symptoms can continue into adulthood and can lead to unstable relationships, poor work or school performance, low self-esteem, and other problems.
Adults with ADHD may experience:
- Impulsiveness
- Inability to concentrate or pay attention
- Disorganization
- Poor time management
- Problems focusing on and completing tasks
- Low frustration tolerance
- Frequent mood swings
- Trouble coping with stress
- Impatience
- Have a quick temper or “short fuse”
