ADHD (Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder) in adults is a complex clinical condition, which always derives from an evolutionary path that began in childhood and continued through the different stages of development. This is a lesson by Prof. Giulio Perugi, expert psychiatrist and psychopharmacologist, carried out during a Conference at the Biella Hospital in May 2024. What do you think? Do you have any comments? Write them down in the appropriate space..... In adult patients, ADHD can manifest itself with predominant symptoms of inattention, impulsivity and hyperactivity, negatively affecting work, social and relational functioning. Diagnosis in adulthood requires a careful anamnesis, which considers the patient's clinical history and the possible presence of psychiatric comorbidities, frequently associated with this condition. Therapeutic choices must be personalized and may include pharmacological interventions, such as the use of stimulants and non-stimulants, PSYCHOEDUCATION and psychotherapeutic interventions, aimed at improving time and attention management strategies, as well as enhancing coping skills. Multimodal treatment, integrating pharmacological and behavioral approaches, is the most effective to improve the quality of life of the adult patient with ADHD, promoting functional adaptation and greater personal satisfaction. ⭐️Sign up now for MINDFITNESS, a FREE mini course where you will learn practical strategies to optimize your brain: https://psinel.com/br-iscrizione-mini... ⭐️ Discover “psiq: Mental Health: Instructions for Use”, the new book by Dr. Valerio Rosso: https://bit.ly/psiqVR or also https://www.psiq.it ⭐️ To learn more about this and many other topics, stay in touch with Dr. Valerio Rosso: (1) Get “Lifestyle Principles” for free now, an eBook that will allow you to discover the principles of Lifestyle Medicine and drastically improve your life: https://psiq.it/lifestyle-principles/ (2) Available now “psiq: Mental Health: Instructions for Use”, the new book by Dr. Valerio Rosso: https://bit.ly/psiqVR or also https://www.psiq.it (3) Subscribe to this channel to support my educational project, to participate in LIVE events and to get all the benefits (discounts and previews): / @valeriorosso
