What can be checked to determine if there is adult ADHD?

Patient's question:

A 19-year-old boy cannot focus on anything he does and always feels that his attention is harder to concentrate than his peers. He struggles to practice and often fidgets. What tests can be done at the hospital to verify if he has adult ADHD?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, you want to ask how to speculate about adult ADHD. You mentioned that you can't focus on anything you do now, and your attention is harder to sustain than others. This itself, for adults, is unlikely. Generally, ADHD is not considered.
In addition, during the treatment of ADHD, in addition to immediate treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must maintain a light diet while keeping a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary negative impacts on the recovery of ADHD.
