Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a mental health condition that interferes with your ability to concentrate, make decisions, and control your impulses. While ADHD is most often diagnosed in children, many adults struggle with ADHD symptoms. If you are diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, you may have had the condition for years, but managed to cope and adapt to your symptoms.
