Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) significantly impacts focus, impulsivity, and activity levels. It’s not just about being easily distracted or overly energetic; ADHD can profoundly affect education, career, and relationships, making everyday tasks feel insurmountable. It’s thought that around 4% of adults have ADHD.

Symptoms of ADHD
Recognising the symptoms of ADHD is vital for early intervention and effective management. ADHD symptoms often manifest differently across age groups and can vary significantly from person to person, including:
- Inattention: Struggling to maintain focus on tasks or activities, easily distracted, forgetting details of daily routines.
- Hyperactivity: Exhibiting excessive energy levels, often seeming to be on the go or engaging in activities with a high level of restlessness.
- Impulsivity: Making hasty decisions without considering consequences, interrupting conversations, or acting without much thought.
- Difficulty Organising Tasks: Challenges in organising tasks and activities leading to missed deadlines and underperformance.
- Emotional Dysregulation: Experiencing intense emotions and mood swings, difficulty coping with stress, and frustration in daily situations.
- Social Challenges: Difficulty maintaining friendships and relationships due to impulsivity and misunderstanding social cues.
At Assured Healthcare and Wellness, we tailor our treatment plans to address these symptoms, focusing on strategies that enhance coping skills, improve social interactions, and support overall emotional well-being. We aim to support you in navigating the complexities of ADHD, offering guidance and care tailored to your unique situation.
Types of ADHD
ADHD presents in three primary types, reflecting the predominant symptoms experienced by the individual:
- Predominantly Inattentive Presentation: People mainly struggle with attention and concentration, finding it hard to stay on task, follow instructions, and manage organisational tasks.
- Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Presentation: Characterised by excessive energy and impulsive actions, people may struggle to sit still, wait their turn, or think before acting.
- Combined Presentation: The most common form, where people exhibit both inattentive and hyperactive-impulsive symptoms, facing challenges with focus, hyperactivity, and impulsiveness.
Understanding the specific type of ADHD is essential for developing a targeted treatment approach. At Assured Healthcare and Wellness, we consider the nuances of each type, ensuring our care plans are precisely tailored to meet the individual needs of our clients. Our goal is to provide effective support that addresses the full spectrum of ADHD symptoms, facilitating improvement in daily functioning and overall quality of life.
