What is ADHD?

ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects attention, impulse control, working memory, and — in many people — emotional regulation.

It's not just "trouble focusing" — for many adults, it shows up as chronic procrastination, time blindness, impulsive decisions, restlessness, and a lifetime sense of underachievement. ADHD is dramatically underdiagnosed in adults — especially in women and people who didn't fit the hyperactive-boy stereotype as kids. Many of our patients come to us in their 30s, 40s, or 50s, often after a child got diagnosed and they recognized themselves in the description.

A proper ADHD diagnosis isn't a 15-minute checklist. We use structured rating scales, developmental history, comorbidity screening, and ruling out look-alike conditions (anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, thyroid issues) before we diagnose.

Common symptoms

• Difficulty sustaining attention on routine tasks
• Easily distracted; mind wandering during conversations
• Chronic procrastination, especially on boring tasks
• Forgetfulness — appointments, deadlines, where you put things
• Time blindness — chronically late, underestimating how long things take
• Restlessness, fidgeting, or feeling driven by a motor
• Impulsivity — financial decisions, interrupting, blurting things out
• Emotional dysregulation — quick to frustrate, intense responses

If symptoms are interfering with daily life — or if you've felt this way for more than two weeks — it's worth a conversation with a psychiatrist.
