Ways that you may notice ADHD is showing up in your life.

At work, you may notice that it can be challenging to remain on one task and not multitask. During the workday, you find yourself having your phone and six tabs open on your computer. None of the tasks around fully complete.

ADHD in adults can be seen in their home life. I once worked with a client who shared with me that they have over 10 home projects that are halfway done. They said that they would start the project and get about halfway through before going to the next one. It’s important to remember that this is often not due to laziness or a deliberate at. The behavior itself is strongly connected to ADHD. Click here for a supportive read on mental health awareness.
