Do you often feel incompetent, and know that you’re smarter than what you may act sometimes?
Does your brain seem to work faster than you can keep up with?
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a condition where there are differences in parts of the brain that control our ability to plan, organise and focus. Symptoms generally start in childhood, however it is missed in many children and often only discovered in adulthood. An estimated 5% of the adult population aged 18-44 are affected by ADHD, but only 10% of adult ADHD sufferers receive treatment for their condition. ADHD may be affecting your daily life with little things such as being forgetful, misplacing things, frequently making errors, as well as feelings such as tiredness, trying to always be on top of things with it becoming overwhelming.
