Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affects 5%-7% of children and 4% of adults. Symptoms of attention deficit disorder can include impulsivity, difficulties in feeling motivated, impaired abilities for attention and concentration, easy distractibility, restlessness and “hyperactivity” and impaired emotional control. You may find yourself easily distracted, not able to focus on a task, poor work performance, feel you are “zoning out” and decreased work productivity.

You may be struggling with ADHD and might consider an evaluation to see if treatment is appropriate for you. Untreated ADHD can negatively affect your career, your relationships, ability to engage in meaningful conversations and lead to low- self esteem.
