What Happens If ADHD Is Left Untreated?

ADHD is only treated when it negatively affects day-to-day life and many individuals go through their lives quietly managing the symptoms without ever receiving a professional diagnosis. That said ADHD can cause difficulties in everyday life, especially in Children, and a professional diagnosis and treatment can help mitigate those difficulties and improve the child’s overall happiness. Sometimes hormonal changes over time can also cause ADHD symptoms to worsen, which can be problematic if it has gone untreated, and these cognitive changes can cause further disruptions in day-to-day life.
