Doctors emphasize that early diagnosis can make a significant difference. This year's theme, "The Many Faces of ADHD," highlights the condition's varying manifestations in different individuals.
"The Many Faces of ADHD"
Dr. Jim Saperstone from Community Care Pediatrics in Guilderland notes that ADHD is one of the most common mental health conditions in children, yet many cases remain undiagnosed. According to Dr. Saperstone, ADHD encompasses more than just hyperactivity, causing difficulties in sitting still, focusing on a task, or managing emotions in both kids and adults.
This frustration can affect academic and home life, hindering children's ability to learn and communicate.
