Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that can significantly impact an individual’s daily functioning and quality of life. It presents unique challenges in our fast-paced and academically demanding society. Living with ADHD is like riding a bicycle in rush-hour traffic – chaotic, overwhelming, and requires constant adjustments to stay on course.

Symptoms of ADHD can sometimes be misunderstood or overlooked. For instance, difficulties with concentration and organisation may be perceived as laziness or lack of effort, leading to feelings of frustration and self-doubt.
ADHD is not a limitation. Through perseverance and support from loved ones and professionals, strategies can be developed to better manage the symptoms and navigate the demands of everyday life.
