How is ADHD diagnosed? Understanding What Happens During an ADHD Evaluation
ADHD cannot be diagnosed with a single test. A comprehensive ADHD evaluation considers symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity, when those symptoms began, how they affect everyday functioning, and whether they occur in more than one area of life. Understanding how ADHD is diagnosed can help children, adults, and families know what to expect from a psychiatric evaluation and why an accurate diagnosis is important before beginning treatment.
