Typical symptoms of ADHD include hyperactivity, impulsivity, and inattention. Symptoms can vary depending on the person, both in severity and the way they show it.
Common examples of inattention are things like difficulty paying attention or listening to someone, being easily forgetful, or being distracted. For hyperactivity, it could be things such as fidgeting, excessive and loud talking, and constant feelings of restlessness. Impulsivity could be random movements, blurting out answers, interrupting people, difficulty waiting, and randomly quitting a task due to boredom.
