📋 What to expect
What is ADHD?
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition affecting approximately 5–8% of adults worldwide. ADHD is not a lack of willpower or laziness — it is a neurological difference that affects the regulation of attention, impulse control, and sometimes motor activity. In adults, ADHD often manifests as difficulty sustaining focus on routine tasks, chronic procrastination, frequent forgetfulness, and intense hyperfocus on areas of interest. Adult ADHD is significantly underdiagnosed, especially in women and high-achieving individuals who develop compensation strategies.
Common symptoms in adults
Signs of adult ADHD include: difficulty completing started tasks, chronic disorganisation, forgetting appointments or obligations, impatience and impulsive decision-making, poor time management, emotional hypersensitivity, and periods of intense hyperfocus alternating with total inability to concentrate. Many adults with ADHD develop masking strategies over decades that hide the condition until a significant life stressor reveals it.
About the ASRS-v1.1 test
This test uses the ASRS-v1.1 (Adult ADHD Self-Report Scale), developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) in collaboration with leading ADHD researchers. Part A (6 questions) is the core screener: 4 or more positive responses indicates a high likelihood of ADHD warranting clinical evaluation. Part B (12 questions) provides additional clinical context. The ASRS-v1.1 has a sensitivity of 68.7% and a specificity of 99.5% for adult ADHD screening (Kessler et al., 2005).
