If you have this type of ADHD, symptoms of inattention outweigh those of impulsivity and hyperactivity. You may occasionally struggle with impulse control or hyperactivity, but these are not the primary traits. This type tends to be diagnosed more frequently in girls than in boys.

This type is characterized by significant impulsivity and hyperactivity, with some symptoms of inattention present but less pronounced. Children with hyperactive-impulsive ADHD can often disrupt classroom environments, making learning challenging for themselves and their peers. This type is more commonly diagnosed in boys than in girls.

If you have the combined type of ADHD, your symptoms encompass both inattentive and hyperactive-impulsive behaviours. Most individuals, whether or not they have ADHD, may show some level of inattention or impulsivity, but those with ADHD tend to exhibit these behaviours more frequently and severely, interfering with daily functioning at home, school, work, and in social settings. Symptoms can evolve over time, which means your type of ADHD may also change. While ADHD can pose lifelong challenges, various treatments, including medication, can significantly enhance your quality of life.
