Many people know or have heard about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in childhood because of the social and educational difficulties children, particularly boys, have in school. More unfamiliar is Attention Deficit Disorder without hyperactivity most commonly found in girls. Both forms, if not diagnosed in childhood, can go undiagnosed in adulthood, as hyperactivity tends to diminish with age even though the other symptoms remain.

Symptoms of ADD without hyperactivity in adults are:
 1. Complaints that they read but it does not register
 2. Frustrated over inability to organize
 3. Poor time management
 4. Problems prioritizing
 5. Misplaces belongings                     
 6. Easily distracted
 7. Prefers multi-tasking
 8. Inefficient
 9. Is perceived as a “dreamer” or just plain lazy or stupid
10. Irritable or quick to anger
11. Blurts out rude/insulting thoughts
12. Impulsively changes jobs
13. Reckless driving
14. Impulsive sexuality
15. Quits new projects
16. Unstable, unhappy relationships

A glance at the symptom list shows how difficult relationships, careers, and daily routines might be for individuals with this disorder. Frustration abounds in this person as well as people they interact with in their personal and professional lives.

In addition, adults with ADHD have a higher incidence of substance abuse, lower occupational achievements, more marital problems and a higher incidence of separation and divorce.
