ADHD
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) manifests in childhood and is characterized by hyperactivity, impulsivity or inattention. Symptoms are often present in multiple settings, such as social life, work or school. ADHD can make it difficult to complete tasks, communicate with others, and remember things. ADHD can manifest with symptoms of hyperactivity and impulsivity such as difficulty sitting stay or taking turns, feeling like you’re driven by a motor, talking excessively, or interrupting other people’s conversations or activities. The lifetime prevalence of ADHD in adolescents and adults is around 8%. The best treatments available for ADHD are stimulants. Because of this, we do require a formal diagnosis of ADHD prior to treatment. We would like to review these records prior to your first visit so that we can discuss treatment options.
