Chloée Alary said she always suspected that her daughter, Fabienne, may have ADHD. She could spot the signs since she had been diagnosed with attention deficit disorder as a child.
While at first it was manageable, she said Fabienne’s behaviour became more difficult to deal with when she started puberty.
“It got to a level where she couldn’t have a normal daily routine. It really was out of whack. And it wasn’t normal little things. It was a million small, accumulated things,” she said.
There are many symptoms to Attention-deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). They range from the inability to concentrate and forgetfulness to impulsive behaviours and emotional outbursts. The neurodevelopmental disorder interferes with functioning and evolves over time.
