Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
ADHD is one of the most common neurobehavioral disorders of childhood. It is usually first diagnosed in childhood and often lasts into adulthood. Children with ADHD have trouble paying attention, controlling impulsive behaviors may act without thinking about what the result will be, and in some cases, are overly active.

Signs and Symptoms
It is normal for children to have trouble focusing and behaving at one time or another. However, children with ADHD do not just grow out of these behaviors. The symptoms continue and can cause difficulty at school, at home, or with friends.
A child with ADHD might:
  • Have a hard time paying attention
  • Daydream a lot
  • Not seem to listen
  • Be easily distracted from schoolwork or play
  • Forget things
  • Be in constant motion or unable to stay seated
  • Squirm or fidget
  • Talk too much
  • Not be able to play quietly
  • Act and speak without thinking
  • Have trouble taking turns
  • Interrupt others

Types
There are three different types of ADHD, depending on which symptoms are strongest in the individual:
  • Predominantly Inattentive Type: It is hard for the individual to organize or finish a task, to pay attention to details, or to follow instructions or conversations. The person is easily distracted or forgets details of daily routines.
  • Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Type: The person fidgets and talks a lot. It is hard to sit still for long (e.g., for a meal or while doing homework). Smaller children may run, jump or climb constantly. The individual feels restless and has trouble with impulsivity. Someone who is impulsive may interrupt others a lot, grab things from people, or speak at inappropriate times. It is hard for the person to wait their turn or listen to directions. A person with impulsiveness may have more accidents and injuries than others.
  • Combined Type: Symptoms of the above two types are equally present in the person.
