Frequently Asked Questions
What is the assessment for ADHD?
ADHD assessments typically involve a series of evaluations to determine if an individual meets the DSM criteria for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. These assessments can include interviews with the individual, their parents or caregivers, and teachers to gather information about symptoms and behaviours. Additionally, questionnaires and rating scales may be used to assess the severity of symptoms and their impact on daily functioning. Other assessments, such as cognitive neuropsychology testing and behavioural observations, may also be carried out to provide a comprehensive understanding of the individual's difficulties. Overall, the assessment process for ADHD aims to accurately diagnose the condition and develop an appropriate treatment plan to help manage symptoms effectively.
What does an ADHD assessment for adults involve?
An ADHD assessment for adults typically involves thoroughly reviewing the individual's medical history, symptoms, and behaviour patterns. It may include self-report questionnaires, interviews with family members or significant others, and cognitive testing to assess areas such as attention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity.

What happens if I'm diagnosed with ADHD?
If you are diagnosed with ADHD, you will receive a proposed treatment plan along with options tailored to your diagnosis, as well as an information pack outlining the next steps for implementing your treatment plan.
What if I decide to take medication?
For adults with ADHD, treatment often includes stimulant medications such as Methylphenidate (Ritalin, Concerta) and Amphetamine-based drugs (Adderall, Vyvanse). These medications help improve focus, attention, and impulse control and are usually prescribed in higher doses compared to those for children. Non-stimulant options like Atomoxetine (Strattera) are also available, particularly for adults who have additional conditions like anxiety or heart issues.
ADHD titration involves starting with the lowest dose of ADHD medication and gradually increasing it. It may take up to a week to notice a difference in your symptoms when taking the medication.
It’s common to have a few side effects with ADHD medication, but titration is how we avoid this by gradually increasing the dose. Some side effects are reduced appetite, weight loss, transient blood pressure increases, headaches and trouble sleeping.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Adult ADHD, and how is it different from ADHD in children?
Adult ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that affect daily functioning in adults. While ADHD is often diagnosed in childhood, it can persist into adulthood or even go undiagnosed until later in life.
The primary difference between ADHD in children and adults is the presentation of symptoms. Adults with ADHD may exhibit less overt hyperactivity, and their symptoms may be more internalized, such as restlessness, impatience, or difficulty concentrating. Additionally, adults with ADHD may experience greater challenges with executive function, emotional regulation, and time management.
What are the most common symptoms of ADHD in adults?
The most common symptoms of adult ADHD include:
• Difficulty focusing or sustaining attention on tasks
• Forgetfulness and disorganization
• Frequently losing items
• Restlessness and trouble sitting still
• Impulsive decision-making
• Interrupting others and excessive talking
• Difficulty managing emotions
• Poor planning and time management
What are the causes of adult ADHD, and is there a cure?
The exact cause of adult ADHD is unknown, but research suggests it is likely due to a combination of genetic, environmental, and neurological factors. While there is no cure for ADHD, it is a manageable condition with appropriate treatment and support.
How can ADHD impact someone's daily life, work, and social relationships?
Adult ADHD can significantly affect various aspects of an individual’s life, including:
• Daily life: Difficulty with organization, time management, and completing tasks can lead to increased stress and frustration.
• Work: Inattention and impulsivity may result in decreased productivity, frequent mistakes, and difficulty meeting deadlines.
• Social relationships: Impulsivity, interrupting others, and emotional dysregulation can strain friendships and romantic relationships.
