Understanding ADHD symptoms

There are 3 main types of ADHD — predominantly inattentive, predominantly hyperactive-impulsive, and combined ADHD. Common symptoms across types in adults include:

Difficulty focusing or staying focused or being restless
Being hyper-focused on a single task or situation
Procrastinating or being unable to start something
Fidgeting or squirming, impulsivity, and/or trouble prioritizing
Inattentiveness
Disorganization and poor time management
Overlooking or missing details
Forgetfulness
Low tolerance for frustration and a quick temper

Symptoms in children can be different. And there are less common ADHD symptoms in adults.

Your provider’s recommended treatment may or may not include medication.

How ADHD is diagnosed

ADHD is diagnosed by a medical or mental healthcare professional. There’s no simple or single test. Instead, a trained, licensed provider will:

Take your history and interview you about your current symptoms and when they started.
Ask about your medical and mental health history and current status.
Use any of several standardized behavior rating scales, known as ADHD screeners or quality of life assessments, as criteria for evaluating you.
Possibly have you take psychological tests to assess your memory, executive functioning, visual and spatial skills, and/or reasoning skills.
Sometimes, and with your permission, talk to or interview people you know (like a caregiver or partner) who’ve seen how your symptoms impact you.
