How do you know if you have ADHD?

Many adults remain undiagnosed until later in life, often attributing their challenges to personal shortcomings rather than a neurodevelopmental condition. This delay in diagnosis can lead to feelings of frustration and missed opportunities. However, understanding that these patterns have a neurological basis can pave the way for effective solutions.


If you suspect you might have ADHD, seeking a professional evaluation is a crucial first step. At ExpatTherapyHub.com, therapy for Expats,  we connect individuals with experienced therapists who specialise in ADHD treatment such as Gina Hargitay who treats adults and children. Our network of professionals offer the guidance and support to navigate the complexities of ADHD, especially for those living abroad.


If you're living in Thailand, Vietnam, or anywhere in Southeast Asia and concerned about time differences, our user-friendly booking system automatically adjusts to your local time zone. This ensures that your appointment is scheduled exactly when you want it — even if you're in Bangkok and your therapist is in Germany.


You may suspect your child has ADHD if they consistently struggle with paying attention, act impulsively without thinking, or exhibit excessive levels of physical activity compared to peers. Signs often include difficulty following instructions, frequent daydreaming, forgetfulness, trouble sitting still, and interrupting others during conversations or play. If these behaviours persist across different settings—like home and school—and interfere with daily life, it’s worth consulting a qualified professional for an assessment. ExpatTherapyHub.com can help connect you with experienced affordable online therapists who can provide online therapy and who specialise in evaluating and supporting children with ADHD.

Recognising Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in oneself can be challenging, especially since its symptoms often overlap with everyday experiences. Common indicators include persistent inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity that interfere with daily functioning. For adults, this might manifest as chronic disorganization, difficulty sustaining attention in tasks, forgetfulness, or impulsive decision-making. It's important to note that these symptoms should be consistent and present since childhood, even if they were not previously diagnosed. (nyulangone.org, verywellhealth.com, expattherapyhub.com)
