Beyond the Diagnosis: Why Adult ADHD Is Often More Complex Than It Looks with David W. Goodman, M.D.

Identification of ADHD with other psychiatric disorders determines the sequence of treatment options- medication and psychotherapies.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the symptoms specific to ADHD and those symptoms assigned to other concurrent psychiatric/medical disorders
- Highlight the diagnostic prioritization of co-existing psychiatric disorders for treatment sequences
- Consider why multiple psychiatric medications are needed when several psychiatric disorders co-occur
