When you think of someone with ADHD, you probably think of a child—and with good reason.

At least some of the symptoms of ADHD have to emerge before the age of 12 to receive the diagnosis, but ADHD can also affect adults.

If left untreated it can lead to poor school performance, struggles at work, and turmoil in relationships.

Dr. Julie Braciszewski with Monarch Behavioral Health in Bloomfield Hills says roughly 4% of all adults have ADHD, but the symptoms look different than childhood ADHD.

A study published in the JAMA Open Network shows an 123% increase of ADHD in adults from 2007-2016.
