Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has been accepted as a well-established neurodevelopmental
disorder. From being viewed as affecting children only, it is now understood as being
prevalent among adults as well. Adults living with ADHD can experience severe impacts on their daily
lives in the form of emotional, physical, interpersonal, familial, and financial distress. Therefore there is
a need for interventions which deal with the predominant symptomatology as well as relevant
comorbidities.
