Its symptoms may vary widely between individuals. It is considered a lifelong condition, but with appropriate support and treatment, individuals with ADHD can develop effective coping strategies and lead successful, productive lives.
It is important to note that ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder, and its assessment and diagnosis should be provided by qualified healthcare professionals based on a comprehensive assessment of the individual’s experienced symptoms and their family history.
Appropriate treatment options, which can be discussed with an appropriate health specialist following the assessment, may include behavioural therapy or coaching, ongoing counselling, medication, and psycho-education about the disorder, or a combination of these.
