Why it matters
"ADHD is often misdiagnosed, and people suffer silently for years."
ADHD doesn't disappear when you grow up.
Many adults across New York and throughout the country go undiagnosed or misdiagnosed for years — sometimes decades. ADHD can affect attention, organization, planning, and other executive skills, and may also involve restlessness or impulsivity. It is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders, yet adults are often overlooked. The result can be years of silent struggle, self-doubt, and missed potential. You may know it as ADD or have searched for adult ADD help, ADD testing, or ADD treatment. These remain familiar terms, although ADHD has been the formal diagnostic name for many years, including for people who have attention difficulties without noticeable hyperactivity.
