The diagnosis of ADHD is often missed and the person gets a wrong diagnosis instead. 54% of people with ADHD contact a mental health professional in any given 12 month period but 9 times out of 10 they are misdiagnosed with something else (usually a mood disorder). Consequently, it is the patient who must know how to distinguish between ADHD and other disorders

Learning Objectives

  1. The participant should be able to differentiate between ADHD, a mood disorder, and both conditions.
  2. The participant will have an understanding of the sources of missd diagnosis of ADHD and misdiagnosis as something else.
