ADHD is a grouping of behavioral or mental patterns: a mental disorder. It describes behavior but not an underlying cause. Itβs like how a pain in your leg does not describe the cause of the pain. Is it broken, burnt or infected? It looks like there are more ways to get ADHD: genetic, environmental and both. We just donβt know exactly what happens.

NOADD is a condition that one is born with and one will have for the rest of his or her life. But sometimes the ADD is not recognized until later in life. Also, as someone with ADD grows up and matures, he has to develop coping methods for dealing with the disorder and functioning normally in a non-ADD society. This can cause the illusion that ADD is a condition that can develop and that can be 'grown out of.'Ask yourself if this is a recent development; or is this something you've had your whole life, but maybe not noticed it as a problem or condition until now?
