What Is ADHD?
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. These behaviors can interfere with development and functioning in academic, professional, and social settings. While symptoms often begin in childhood, ADHD can affect individuals of all ages and persist into adulthood.
Common Signs of ADHD

Difficulty sustaining attention in tasks or conversations.

Understanding the Causes of ADHD
While the exact causes of ADHD are not fully understood, research indicates a strong genetic component. Differences in brain structure, function, and chemistry are also believed to play a significant role. Certain environmental factors during pregnancy and in early childhood may also contribute to the risk of developing the condition.
