ADHD symptoms vary by individual and can evolve over time. They fall into two main categories: inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity. Inattention symptoms include difficulty sustaining attention, making careless mistakes, disorganization, losing items, and forgetfulness. Hyperactivity and impulsivity may present as fidgeting, difficulty staying seated, excessive running/climbing, trouble playing quietly, being constantly “on the go,” interrupting others, and difficulty waiting for one’s turn.
