ADHD in Adults: Recognising the Signs and Finding Support
When most people think of ADHD, they picture hyperactive children in classrooms. However, ADHD also affects adults, often with unique challenges that go unrecognised. Left untreated, it can disrupt work, relationships, and daily functioning, but with the right support, adults with ADHD can thrive.
