Modern Concepts of ADHDFXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Professor Peter Hill
Consultant child and adolescent psychiatrist
Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a combination of hyperactivity, impulsiveness and inattention which significantly impacts those living with the condition. The medical approach to the ADHD pattern of behaviour has been very successful in childhood but the results have been somewhat less impressive in adulthood. This has led to a reappraisal of both causes and treatment in both age groups.
Should the conventional, neurotypical world accommodate people with ADHD as different, rather than disabled?
