Adult ADHD

& ADD

Living with ADHD as an adult can feel like juggling too many things at once—and dropping most of them. From keeping track of appointments to managing work deadlines or simply trying to stay focused in conversations, ADHD can make daily life overwhelming and exhausting.

ADHD symptoms can range from the very classic—like restlessness, difficulty focusing, and paying attention—to lesser-known challenges. These include overthinking, analysis paralysis, and indecisiveness, which can make even simple decisions feel impossible. You might struggle with high emotions that are difficult to control, particularly irritability, or you may feel unmotivated, numb, and purposeless. Impulsive behaviors like shopping sprees, overeating, or saying things you later regret can further complicate life.

For some, ADHD is mild and manageable, while for others, it can be extremely debilitating, putting jobs, relationships, and family life at risk. You might feel like no matter how much effort you put in, you’re always falling short of your potential. But help is available. Therapy can help you make sense of the challenges ADHD brings and develop strategies to work with your brain, not against it.
