Adult ADHD is a problem that affects 4.4% of adults with its trademark symptoms of inattention, distractibility and impulsivity. While in most cases these symptoms were present during childhood, they may not have become a prominent problem until the responsibilities and burdens of adulthood started accumulating. With the lag of Adult ADHD dragging behind some people, the expectation to mature and become responsible adults may become overwhelming and cause sufferers to become stressed, overly anxious and even depressed. This could cause them to turn to drugs, alcohol or other substances for relief. While substance abuse can be seen and treated easily, the underlying problem is still there and untreated. As one of the top ADHD specialists in Atlanta, Dr. Hege recognizes this as a major problem and goes right to the source.
Dr. Hege is one of the best in the business and will treat you in the most effective way possible. Due to inattention usually being the biggest problem for Adult ADHD sufferers, our medicines usually do the trick. On the other hand, psychotherapy of different forms is usually non-effective against the core problems of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity, whereas it can be very helpful fixing the psychological and social problems caused by Adult ADHD.
