By reviewing the following questions and tips beforehand, you may feel more comfortable discussing your options with your healthcare professional.

Questions to ask your healthcare professional:

• How common is Adult ADD?
• How can Adult ADD affect me at work and at home?
• How are the symptoms in adults different from those in children?
• What kinds of medications or therapies are available to treat Adult ADD?
• What can I expect from treatment?

Remember to tell your healthcare professional about:

• Your Adult ADD Screener results
• Your symptoms and how they affect your life
• Any other symptoms you are experiencing (e.g., excessive worry or anxiety). Other conditions often accompany ADD, and your healthcare professional needs to consider this to optimize your ADD treatment.
