What is ADHD?
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition that causes behavioral and social problems starting as soon as childhood. Many individuals still don’t get a diagnosis of ADHD before they reach adulthood. This causes an uphill struggle to find work or form rewarding relationships. 

Specific problems ADHD causes may include:

• Difficulty concentrating/focusing
• Easily distracted 
• Difficulty completing tasks without interference 
• Difficulty with organization and time management 
• Impulsivity and restlessness 
• Frustration
• Mood swings
• Fidgetiness
• Limitless energy

What treatments will help me manage ADHD?
ADHD treatment involves medications management and undergoing behavioral therapy. Medications used to treat ADHD include neurocognitive enhancers and stimulants that help reduce unwanted behaviors and improve focus and concentration. Behavior therapy is equally essential for managing ADHD. Therapy sessions help you understand the condition and learn how to adjust your behavior so you encounter fewer difficulties.
