ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is a neurodevelopmental disability affecting the brain and its way to process information and control behaviors.

ADHD is a relatively common diagnosis which can appear in different ways for different people in various times. It is usually characterized by challenge and/or bigger variation of intensity when it comes to attention, impulse control and hyperactivity (each by themselves or combinated). ADHD might include the ability to hyperfocus and is sometimes associated with a strong creative ability.

ADD is the same neurodevelopmental disability as ADHD apart from the hyperactivity.

ADHD can also appear with other developmental related or psychiatric conditions.
