What is ADHD?
(Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) commonly referred to as ADHD is a neurobehavioral disorder. It is a condition characterized by inattention and/or hyperactivity and impulsivity that impacts the ability to focus and pay attention. The term is used whether hyperactivity is a factor or not, and children and adults of any age can struggle with the disorder. What most people overlook is that the burden of ADHD is life-long and carries a significant risk to social and emotional well-being and a person’s mental health. If not treated, an attention deficit can affect more than just a child’s ability to sit still or focus. Long term effects such as substance abuse, driving ability, eating habits and peer-relationships are all compromised. For adults, untreated ADHD also affects job performance, marital satisfaction, and stability of relationships overall. Our brain training and cognitive development services have helped people who struggle with this condition, both adults and kids alike.
