ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a common neurodevelopmental condition that affects how the brain regulates attention, activity levels, and self-control.
It's important to remember: ADHD is not laziness or a lack of ability — it's a medical condition rooted in how the brain works.
Core Symptoms
- Inattention: Trouble focusing, staying organized, or finishing tasks.
- Hyperactivity: Feeling restless, fidgety, or constantly "on the go."
- Impulsivity: Acting before thinking, interrupting others, or struggling to wait.
Understanding these traits helps break down stigma and brings clarity to what many patients experience.
