Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects a person’s ability to focus, control impulses, and regulate activity levels. It commonly emerges in childhood but can persist into adolescence and adulthood, impacting academic, occupational, and social functioning. For best results, a multidisciplinary therapeutic strategy and early diagnosis are crucial.
