What is ADHD?

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that causes problems with paying attention, sitting still, and controlling impulses. Some people with ADHD have more inattentive symptoms, others have more hyperactive symptoms, and some have an even balance of both.

ADHD often appears during childhood but can also affect you into adulthood. It can cause issues at school or work. If you feel like your behaviors are disruptive or that they inhibit your ability to pay attention or be productive, come to Lancaster Wellness Med Spa for an evaluation. 

At Lancaster Wellness Med Spa, the team reviews your symptoms to find out if you have ADHD, and helps you manage symptoms with individualized care tailored to your personal circumstances.

What are the symptoms of ADHD?

ADHD can cause different symptoms for every individual with the condition. You might notice some of the symptoms in yourself or your child. The team at Lancaster Wellness Med Spa can provide an evaluation for ADHD if you experience frequent:

• Trouble sitting still
• Trouble paying attention
• Interrupting others
• Talkativeness
• Careless mistakes
• Impulsive behaviors
• Fidgeting

Fortunately, there are treatments available for ADHD that can minimize these behaviors. Managing your ADHD might take some trial and error, but it’s possible to accomplish. 

How can I manage ADHD symptoms?
