What is ADHD?

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a long-term problem that results in poor concentration and control of impulses. It can affect a child’s learning and social interactions and can have a big impact on family functioning.  It’s estimated one in 20 children in Australia have ADHD.

The main signs and symptoms of ADHD include:

> inattention – difficulty concentrating, forgetting instructions, moving from one task to another without completion

> impulsivity – acting without thinking, talking over the top of others, losing control of emotions easily, being accident prone

> overactivity – constant fidgeting and restlessness.

Some children have ADHD, but without the hyperactivity. These children have trouble focussing and paying attention, and can be forgetful and easily distracted. Sometimes the term ‘inattentive ADHD’ is used to describe this condition.

It is important to remember that all young children have a limited attention span and sometimes do things without thinking, but only a few have ADHD. However, if your child has symptoms of ADHD, which are causing problems for your child, you should have your child assessed for ADHD and related problems.
