What is ADHD?
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects focus, attention, impulse control, and regulation of emotions. ADHD looks different in everyone.
There are three recognised subtypes:
-
Predominantly Inattentive: forgetfulness, poor concentration, disorganisation
-
Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive: fidgeting, impulsivity, restlessness
-
Combined Type: involving both inattentive and hyperactive traits
