Misconceptions about ADHD

One of the biggest misconceptions about ADHD is that individuals with ADHD have endless energy and can hyperfocus for hours. Another misconception is that ADHD is primarily a childhood condition and doesn't affect adults. Additionally, people may mistakenly believe that ADHD is just about being forgetful or scatterbrained, without understanding the neurological challenges and impulsivity that individuals with ADHD face. It's important to dispel these misconceptions to promote a better understanding and support for individuals with ADHD.
