Attention Deficit Disorder

Not being able to pay attention doesn't mean you have ADD

True ADHD in adults is fairly rare, and it is estimated that less than 2% of the population has it. You may be part of that minority, but more likely you have symptoms of ADD that can come from a variety of causes and can be successfully managed with a combination of therapy and medications.

The key to treating your symptoms is understanding their cause.

Addiction, Bipolar Disorder, OCD, Anxiety, Depression and Personality Disorders all affect your ability to pay attention.

How can I tell if I have ADHD?

You can't, only a qualified psychiatrist can accurately diagnose ADHD.

Ritalin helps me pay attention, so I already know I have ADHD.

Almost anyone pays more attention on Ritalin, Concerta or Adderall. The problem is that these medications can cause side effects that impact your ability to function. Common problems can be irritability and anxiety. When these medications are used improperly, things can get worse instead of better.
