ADHD encompasses more than just traditional perceptions of hyperactivity, often including significant mental restlessness. Stigmas surrounding ADHD persist, particularly the notion that it only affects disruptive behavior in boys, which can lead to misunderstanding and dismissiveness, even among those who experience it. The terminology itself can be misleading, as 'attention deficit hyperactivity disorder' implies a primary focus on physical hyperactivity, ignoring mental aspects. Importantly, ADHD in adults is often rooted in experiences from childhood, indicating that it is a lifelong condition that needs broader recognition and understanding.
