Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is defined by the American Psychological Association (APA) as a behavioral condition characterized by persistent patterns of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that interfere with functioning or development. Individuals with ADHD often struggle with organization, staying focused, making realistic plans, and thinking before acting. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder marked by a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that is more severe than typically observed in individuals at a comparable level of development. This disorder can significantly impact academic, occupational, and social functioning .
