Most cases of ADHD are diagnosed in the early school years; there is numerous new expectations that a child with ADHD would have trouble following like taking turns, remaining seated, and not disrupting the classroom. Also, there is increased observation of a child in the school environment, so a teacher or other school official could recommend a doctor visit.
In some cases, ADHD is diagnosed in the teenage years. This is more common with the inattentive subtype; lack of focus becomes much more apparent with the increase of responsibilities and commitments in the teenage years.
