Meaningful NIMH recognition of ADHD as a lifelong disorder


Meaningful NIMH recognition of ADHD as a lifelong disorder
The Issue
We need to band together to demand meaningful recognition from NIMH that ADHD is a lifelong disorder.
ADHD is a genetically inherited disorder. However, it is still treated primarily as a childhood disorder.
NIMH still states:
"Some children with ADHD continue to have it as adults."
This must Change.
