What Is It?

What Is ADHD?

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a behavioral condition that affects millions of people in the United States. While this condition usually manifests during childhood, it can continue to develop well into your adult years, making it difficult to focus or control impulsive thoughts or actions severely impacting your ability to manage day-to-day tasks. At Mynd Works Psychiatric Services, we have an extensive understanding of the effects that attention deficit hyperactivity disorder can have on those who struggle with it, and we’re dedicated to helping patients manage their symptoms. If you are having trouble with hyperactivity or impulsive behaviors, schedule an online appointment or in-person consultation at our Austin, TX practice so our team can start creating your customized treatment plan.

How Do We Treat ADHD?

ADHD treatment at Mynd Works Psychiatric Services starts with a comprehensive psychiatric assessment, which can be done online anywhere in the state or in person at our office in Austin, TX. During this appointment, we’ll discuss your symptoms and the effects they’re having on your daily activities. If we determine that you or your loved one have ADHD, we’ll review treatment options. ADHD is typically managed with medication. We take a personalized approach to your mental health to identify the most effective medication for each person to ensure a more effective treatment.

What Are the Symptoms of ADHD?

ADHD symptoms can vary from person to person, which is why it’s crucial to receive a professional diagnosis. A few of the more common symptoms of ADHD are:

Inability to focus for long periods

Impulsive thoughts and behaviors

An urge to fidget or constantly move

Difficulty juggling multiple tasks at the same time

Disorganization

Mood swings

If you are in a depressive episode, you might experience:

Feelings of hopelessness

Fatigue

Lack of motivation or interest in your normal hobbies

Negative thoughts that don't seem to have any trigger

The symptoms of bipolar disorder can be easily missed or mistaken as another condition, which is why we recommend scheduling a mental health assessment with our Austin, TX psychiatric team so we can properly diagnose your disorder.
