In many cases, it's hard to distinguish between the two conditions, which makes them more likely to be underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed.<br /><br />In ADHD the impulsivity, hyperactivity and inattention create situations that are fraught with uncertainty. This is the fuel for anxiety. Inherent inconsistency can also lead to doubt and self-doubt in ADHD, especially when trying to assess one's capabilities. This can cause front-end perfectionism, which is a type of unhelpful thinking that states, "I have to be in the right mindset for this job."<br /><br />In addition, anxiety typically manifests itself physically such as fidgeting or other body movements.

This way, adults with ADHD receive the treatment they need to feel more confident and competent in everyday life.<br /><br />Boredom<br /><br />The inner agitation that is one of the main symptoms of ADHD can make boredom feel unbearable. It can also cause problems in relationships, especially when it is triggered by small frustrations or shifts in mood. Fidgeting and hopping up and down from your chair is an indication that you're having difficulty staying in one place or sitting at work for long periods of time.<br /><br />It is common for boredom to cause external problems for people with ADHD that include excessive spending and poor time management. It can even cause problems with relationships if it begins spawning arguments or resentment. If you find yourself continually put off important tasks, not remembering events in your calendar, or making a few mistakes at work, it could be time to get tested for ADHD.<br /><br />People with ADHD are more likely to become bored when they attempt to perform activities that don't appeal to them or stimulate them. They might even lose interest in a pastime or job that they loved. That's why it's so important to discover ways to spice up your life by engaging in activities that you enjoy and ensure that you're tackling boring chores and responsibilities in the most efficient way you can.<br /><br />While boring tasks may appear impossible for someone with ADHD they're actually easier to manage than one would think. If you have trouble to complete your expense report on time or pay your bills, you may want to use external motivation for example, like the money you'll get to meet deadlines.<br /><br />Another approach that may be effective is to try some risky activities to satisfy your desire for stimulation. People suffering from ADHD are inclined to seek out adrenaline and dopamine that can be found through risky activities such as skydiving or speeding. They might also engage in risky behaviors in their daily lives, such as major investing or extramarital affairs.<br /><br />People often don't realize they suffer from ADHD until adulthood, when they look at their issues in a new light. For certain people, being diagnosed with ADHD can be a source of comfort and hope, as it helps them understand that the challenges they've been facing aren't a result of their personality flaws.<br /><br />
