The Facts About Adult ADHD

At ASCEND’s Atlanta ADHD testing, ADHD isn’t just a childhood disorder. Even though ADHD often begins in childhood, many patients are never diagnosed until much later. At ASCEND’s Adult ADHD testing, neurologists with years of clinical experience use objective, evidence-based methods to assess and treat the condition.

FACT:

A person with ADHD might have other emotional disorders.

FACT:

ADHD affects people of all ages, sexes and intelligence levels.

FACT:

Everyone from time to time displays some ADHD symptoms, but people with a chronic lack of attention warrant a diagnosis of Attention Deficit Disorder.

FACT:

People with ADHD can focus on activities they enjoy, but have trouble concentrating on repetitive or mundane activities.
