ADD and ADHD result from a brain disorder impacting impulse control, activity organization, and attention focus. Symptoms are divided into hyperactivity/impulsivity and inattentiveness. ADD patients face difficulty regulating attention, while ADHD individuals struggle with attention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. Symptoms typically manifest by age 12 but often go undiagnosed until adulthood. The severity of these symptoms hampers socialization and impedes success in various settings like home, school, and work.
Examples of inattentive behavior include:
- Being easily distracted
- Having trouble managing time
- Making reckless mistakes
- Frequently losing items
- Finding it hard to follow instructions
Examples of hyperactivity and impulsivity include:
- Being hyperactive and constantly on the go
- Having difficulty taking turns
- Fidgeting or squirming when seated
- Talking excessively or interrupting often
- Starting but seldom finishing projects
