Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, commonly known as ADHD, affects millions of children and adults around the world. It can significantly impact a person's daily life, making it important to understand the different types, challenges and symptoms. ADHD is a condition characterised by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity that can affect an individual's ability to function in various life domains, such as school, work and social relationships. It is important to note that ADHD isn't about bad behaviour, mental health problems or learning disabilities. It’s not a result of laziness, lack of intelligence or poor parenting; it is a neurodevelopmental disorder. In simpler terms, it's about how our brains are wired. And they take longer to develop!
