From time to time, all of us can get distracted, forgetful or struggle to concentrate (Inattention). Similarly, we can feel bursts of energy, and do things in the spur of the moment (Hyperactivity-Impulsivity)!
When these have been a feature in us, all our lives (since childhood) and they start impacting our ability to complete tasks- may warrant an assessment for ADHD. While in some ADHD features mellow with time, in many, it might continue to have an effect into adulthood.
Medication can be effective; though prescribing needs to balance the decision based on your overall effect on well-being. There are things you can do (e.g. exercise, regular routines, habits to minimize forgetfulness, sleep hygiene, avoiding unprescribed drugs) as well as people in your life accepting your strengths and weakness and schools/universities/employers making 'reasonable adjustments'.
This course will explore the topics mentioned above.
