Dr. Hanid Audish | Understanding the Social Challenges of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

 

Children and adolescents with ADHD often struggle with various social challenges that can affect their ability to form and maintain friendships. Impulsivity, inattention, and hyperactivity traits associated with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder can make it difficult for individuals to regulate their behavior in social settings, leading to misunderstandings, conflicts, and rejection by peers. Additionally, difficulties with executive functioning, such as organizing tasks and managing time, can impact social interactions and limit opportunities for participation in group activities. Dr. Hanid Audish

 

Furthermore, individuals with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder may exhibit deficits in social cognition, including perspective-taking, empathy, and understanding social cues, which can contribute to difficulties in interpreting others' intentions and responding appropriately in social situations. As a result, children and adolescents with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder may experience feelings of loneliness, social isolation, and low self-esteem, exacerbating the challenges they face in developing meaningful relationships with their peers.
