The Bitter Truth Of Neglecting ADHD

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has different symptoms in each individual, making diagnosing this disorder reasonably tricky. Many studies have shown that children and adults with ADHD have a higher risk of unintentional accidents [10],[11]and injuries if the symptoms of ADHD are left untreated. Studies show the type and severity of these injuries can differ with age. Poor self-image[12] in individuals with neglected ADHD can result in difficulties in pursuing goals and trying new things because of the constant assumption of failure. These complaints can prompt them to retreat into a shell so that they are not in anyone’s way, which takes a toll on their relationships[14]. 4] K.
