Inattentive ADHD, also known as ADHD-PI (predominantly inattentive), is one of the three types of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Individuals with inattentive ADHD may experience various symptoms, including difficulty focusing, forgetfulness, and trouble completing tasks. Here are some common symptoms associated with inattentive ADHD:
Difficulty paying attention: People with inattentive ADHD may have difficulty focusing on tasks, particularly those that are tedious or require sustained effort. They may struggle to stay on task or find themselves easily distracted by other things.
Forgetfulness: Inattentive ADHD can also affect a person’s memory. They may have trouble remembering things like appointments, deadlines, and details from conversations.
Poor organization and time management: Individuals with inattentive ADHD may struggle with organization and time management skills. They may have trouble planning and prioritizing tasks, as well as keeping track of their belongings and schedules.
It’s worth noting that while these are common symptoms of inattentive ADHD, not everyone with this type of ADHD will experience all of these symptoms, and the severity of symptoms can vary from person to person. If you suspect you or a loved one may have inattentive ADHD, it’s important to speak with a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and treatment options.
