The key to relieving symptoms of ADHD is understanding what medications work best for your specific situation. The worst symptom for ADHD is primarily inattentiveness rather than hyperactivity so our medicines typically relieve that symptom more than hyperactivity. While psychotherapy may be helpful in improving the social consequences of ADHD, it is largely ineffective when treating the three core symptoms, inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity.
Adult ADHD affects at least 4.4% of adults with typical symptoms like inattention, distractibility and impulsivity. While these symptoms may have been present during childhood, they would not have become a major problem until the burdens of adulthood starting weighing on your shoulders. The responsibilities of adulthood: your marriage, family, job, and finances are all a lot more difficult to deal with when you are being distracted by everything or zoning out due to ADHD.
Some of the the expectations of us as adults to control our anger and fears, to listen to our spouses or bosses and to be able to focus on specific tasks for long periods of time may not seem very difficult except to those with the drag of ADHD.
