Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder comprises three distinct subtypes — inattentive (traditionally called ADD), hyperactive-impulse (traditionally called ADHD), and combined. Symptoms vary significantly for each type.
Hyperactive impulsive type ADHD is the stereotype most people imagine when they think of ADHD: a young boy, bouncing off the walls, and interrupting the teacher mid sentence. Yet, this description fits only a small portion of those with the condition. To have this type, a person must have 6 or more of the following symptoms:Leaves seat in classroom or in other situations in which remaining seated is expected.Has difficulty playing or engaging in leisure activities quietly.
To avoid the continued epidemic of missed diagnoses, it's important for medical professionals to recognize all types of ADHD, as well as related conditions often mistaken for ADHD.
