What is it?

ADHD is a neurodevelopmental condition. This means your brain developed differently while you were still growing. It is not a sickness you catch like a cold or a flu.

Signs & Symptoms

Feeling like your mind is a browser with 100 tabs open.
Having tons of energy for new hobbies but none for chores.
A constant feeling of restlessness in your body or mind.

Why does this happen?

The science bit is all about biology and genes. Most people get ADHD because it runs in their family. Your brain has a different way of handling dopamine. Dopamine is a chemical that helps you focus and feel rewarded. In an ADHD brain, the prefrontal cortex needs more stimulation to stay engaged.
