Living with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) affects how you focus, pay attention and control your impulses. It can make it hard to stay organized or complete tasks. This can lead to frustration and stress, especially if your ADHD affects your ability to do your job or manage daily responsibilities.
But there’s hope. The ADHD brain focuses best on things that are new, interesting or urgent. By using simple tricks to engage your brain, you can create strategies to make it easier to stay on track and get things done.
Here are some practical tips from Mayo Clinic psychology experts Kristin S. Vickers, Ph.D., L.P., and Kyle A. Schofield, Ph.D.
