Affecting 3?4% of the global population, ADHD has long been considered a pediatric psychiatric condition and continues to be overlooked in adults, who often go on to endure a lifetime of clinically significant impairments that affect work performance, social behavior, and personal relationships. However, in the wake of the recognition of ADHD in adults in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders IV (considered the absolute gold standard in psychiatry) and a greater number of pharmaceutical treatments being indicated for adults, this book will increase awareness of the condition and advocate expanding ADHD treatment across all age ranges. The book is especially relevant to psychiatrists, GPs, and specialist psychiatric nurses , while also a useful resource for patient societies and advocacy groups. 606 $aPsychiatry 606 $aPsychopharmacology 606 $aBehavioral therapy 606 $aMedicine 606 $aPsychiatry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H53003 606 $aPsychopharmacology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H53010 606 $aBehavioral Therapy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H54018 606 $aMedicine/Public Health, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H00007 615 0$aPsychiatry. 615 0$aPsychopharmacology. 615 0$aBehavioral therapy. 615 0$aMedicine. 615 14$aPsychiatry. 615 24$aPsychopharmacology. 615 24$aBehavioral Therapy. 615 24$aMedicine/Public Health, general. 676 $a616.85 676 $a616.8589 700 $aAsherson$b Philip$f1960-$01242860 702 $aUKAAN$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 712 02$aUK Adult ADHD Network. 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910438016803321 996 $aHandbook for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in Adults$92883028 997 $aUNINA
