What is ADHD?
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder. People with ADHD have difficulty maintaining attention or have episodes of hyperactivity that interfere with their daily life.
People sometimes refer to it as ADD, but ADHD is the medically accepted term. ADHD is common. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 8.8 percent of U.S. children have an ADHD diagnosis.
ADHD is a common disorder that often begins in childhood. It can continue through adolescence and sometimes into adulthood. People with ADHD typically have more difficulty focusing than people who don’t have ADHD, they may also act impulsively more than their peers, which can make it difficult for them to perform well in school or work as well as other activities.

What Are Symptoms?
ADHD is not just a normal part of growing up, it’s an illness that affects how a person functions in the world.
Children with ADHD often have trouble focusing and behaving at one time or another. However, these behaviors continue, can be severe, and can cause difficulty at school, home, or with friends. A child with ADHD might:

• forget or lose things a lot
• squirm or fidget
• talk too much
• make careless mistakes or take unnecessary risks
• have a hard time resisting temptation
• have trouble taking turns
• have difficulty getting along with others
What are the different types?
There are three different types of ADHD, depending on the type of symptoms that are most pronounced in the individual.
• The individual has a difficult time paying attention to details, following instructions, and staying on track with daily routines. This makes it hard for the person to complete tasks or stay focused on conversations.
• The individual is typically very hyperactive and impulsive. They often move around a lot and find it hard to sit still for long periods of time. This can be problematic when trying to eat or complete homework, as the person may get restless and accident prone. Someone with impulsiveness may also be more likely to interrupt others frequently, grab things from people, and speak out of turn. These behaviours can make it difficult for them to wait their turn or follow instructions properly.
• Both presentation types are present in the person. Because symptoms can change over time, the presentation may change over time as well.
