About ADHD

Adult ADHD affects approximately 4.4% of U.S. adults and is frequently underdiagnosed, particularly in women. Symptoms include difficulty sustaining attention, impulsivity, disorganization, time blindness, and emotional dysregulation. Effective treatment combines stimulant medications (Adderall, Vyvanse, Ritalin) or non-stimulants (Strattera, Wellbutrin) with behavioral coaching and CBT.

ADHD is highly treatable with the right care. UHC covers adhd treatment at Lyte Psychiatry under its mental health benefit.
