This short video debunks two common misconceptions about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). It explains that ADHD can affect individuals of all ages and that the symptoms are not a result of laziness or lack of motivation, but a neurological condition.

Let's explore some common misconceptions that people have when it comes to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD. Misconception number one: A person is too young or too old to have ADHD. ADHD symptoms can appear as early as the preschool years. Additionally, this condition may persist throughout adulthood and into old age. Older adults with ADHD may struggle with attention, memory, planning, and other symptoms of ADHD. Misconception number two: People with ADHD are just lazy and unmotivated. Someone with ADHD may find it nearly impossible to stay focused or complete a lengthy task. This behavior may look on the outside like laziness or lack of motivation, but in reality, it stems from a considerable neurological condition.
