What is ADD?
Signs and Symptoms
ADD:
Your mental health is as important as your physical health, and it's crucial to be aware of how you're doing.
If you've heard people discuss ADD and feel you might be at risk, or if you are not feeling like yourself, you might wonder if this is a temporary issue or if it could be a mental health condition like Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD).
In the video, Executive Director of Catholic Charities Amy Bloch, LISW, provides a detailed overview of ADD, including its symptoms and treatment options, and explains how it differs from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
Understanding these conditions can be intimidating, but with professional guidance, ADD and ADHD are manageable and treatable. Many individuals find that with the right support, they can lead fulfilling, productive lives.
Catholic Charities serves people of all ages, faiths and backgrounds. We turn no one needing mental health care away for the inability to pay.
