ADHD is a childhood issue, but it may go undiagnosed for years or may get worse in the teenage years. The main symptoms of ADHD are being easily distracted, unorganized, hyperactive, forgetful, and impulsive. Many people with ADHD also have poor concentration.
These symptoms can manifest in many ways in a teen’s life, including becoming bored easily, often losing things, having a hard time listening or learning new things, frequently getting lost in daydreams, constantly moving, talking, or touching everything in sight, having difficulty sleeping, getting easily frustrated, acting out inappropriately, and being unable to control their emotions.
Unfortunately, ADHD is usually accompanied with other disorders, such as anxiety, oppositional defiant disorder, substance abuse or learning disabilities.
