🧠 October is ADHD Awareness Month!

ADHD is more than being distracted or hyperactive. It's a neurodevelopmental condition that can affect attention, organization, motivation, impulse control, time management and other areas of executive functioning.

It affects children AND adults — and some people don't recognize they have ADHD until adulthood.

💙 ADHD is treatable. If ADHD symptoms are affecting your school, work, relationships or everyday life, consider talking with your primary-care provider.
