Adult ADHD. Regaining Focus
Description
Once thought to be just a childhood issue, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is now diagnosed in many stages of life, and affects men and women equally. In this program patients describe how ADHD has negatively impacted their personal and professional lives, and share the ways in which they have overcome the restlessness and impulsivity that were formerly viewed as defects in character. Viewers also hear from medical experts who explain the neurological basis of ADHD and recent treatment options that are helping adults finally gain control over this condition.
