What is ADHD?
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects both children and adults. It’s characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that can disrupt daily life. For adults, ADHD can impact everything from work performance to personal relationships and overall well-being.
Recognizing ADHD Symptoms
ADHD symptoms can manifest differently in each individual.
According to the DSM-5, key symptoms include:
Inattention
Difficulty focusing, organizing tasks, following through on instructions, frequent forgetfulness, and being easily distracted.
Hyperactivity and Impulsivity
Restlessness, difficulty staying seated, excessive talking, interrupting others, and trouble waiting for one’s turn.
Challenges that people with ADHD face:
-> Daily Life: Struggling to prioritize tasks, feeling overwhelmed, and difficulty completing projects.
-> Time Management: Missed appointments, chronic lateness, and trouble meeting deadlines.
-> Relationships: Challenges in listening, frequent mood swings, and impulsive behaviors can strain personal connections.
-> Career: Inconsistent focus, disorganization, and poor time management can hinder job performance.
-> Finances: Impulsive spending and trouble budgeting may lead to financial instability.
-> Self-Esteem: Persistent challenges can cause feelings of inadequacy and low self-worth.
ADHD Treatment Options
Medication Management
Stimulants: Improve focus, attention, and impulse control. Common options include Adderall, Ritalin, and Concerta.
Non-Stimulants: These may be effective with fewer side effects, such as Strattera and Wellbutrin.
It’s essential to understand that not everyone requires medication. Anxiety, depression, or overwhelming responsibilities can also contribute to attention and focus issues.
Therapy Options
ADHD-Specific Supportive Therapy: Develop coping strategies, enhance time management, and build self-esteem.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Address underlying thoughts and behaviors contributing to ADHD symptoms.
We offer both medication management and ADHD-specific supportive therapy at Ruby Mental Wellness. If needed, we can connect you with specialized ADHD therapists or coaches.
