Suggest Treatment For ADHD In A 46 Year Old
Hello...I am a 46 Old man with four children and a wife of 23 years. I have just lost my six job in four years and have had lingering effects of ADHD for as long as I can remember. I have done much research in the past 18 months on ADHD for adults and I went to see my doctor in regards to that issue. My doctor tells me there is no such thing as adult ADHD but I think he s wrong. What is your opinion? Is adult ADHD real?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a mental health condition that can lead to unstable relationships, poor work performance and low self-esteem. ADHD symptoms include trouble focusing, hyperactivity and impulsive behaviour.
Adult ADHD is real and can be treated with talk therapy and with medicines.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
