Common Questions About ADHD
What are the early signs of ADHD?
In children, signs often include trouble focusing, excessive talking, restlessness, and difficulty finishing homework or chores. In adults, signs may look like procrastination, losing focus in meetings, or constantly feeling “scattered.”
Is ADHD hereditary?
Yes. ADHD frequently runs in families, suggesting a strong genetic link. However, environmental influences and brain development also play a role in how symptoms appear.
Can adults develop ADHD later in life?
ADHD doesn’t usually begin in adulthood, but symptoms can become more noticeable as responsibilities increase. For example, managing a demanding job, family, or financial obligations may make underlying ADHD symptoms harder to ignore.

How do I know if I should get tested for ADHD?
