These are mental processes that involve the ability to direct your thoughts to one subject or issue at a time. ADD is a neurological condition which affects behavior and learning.
Symptoms vary from person to person.
Other symptoms may include learning disabilities, mood swings, procrastination, being disorganized or forgetful, and problems in social relationships. However, if the symptoms are moderate to severe, then medication may prove helpful, particularly while in college when the ability to concentrate and pay attention is very important. If a drug isn t effective, often another drug in the same class of drugs will be tried, or the physician may try the other class of drugs. Body chemistry varies from one person to another, so what works for one person may not work for another person.
