Muscat: ADHD represents a neurodevelopmental disorder that may markedly affect one’s attention, concentration, impulsivity and organization. Even though ADHD is perceived as a phenomenon experienced by children, it can persist in adulthood.
The rise in awareness in Arab communities drives the interest of parents, teachers and young people to recognize the symptoms of ADHD and reach out for professional help instead of calling these challenges laziness, negligence, or failing to build discipline.
According to experts, having an understanding of ADHD and supporting the affected person in the early stages makes a great difference. With proper education and assistance from specialists and family, people with ADHD may cope with the disorder and achieve great results in the spheres of education, employment, and day-to-day activities.
