The Difference Between ADHD & ADD

In most recent years ADHD & ADD have both been spoken as they are the same thing so

then the public starts saying that both conditions are the same. The two conditions are completely

different ADD affects ones ability to concentrate and poor memory. ADHD is the term to

describe symptoms of hyperactivity and impulsivity. There are medications that can help make

these symptoms less severe but some people usually cannot afford the price of the medicine. It is

either that they do not have insurance or their insurance does not cover the cost of the

medication. The medicine is very expensive without the coverage of insurance can be up to the

high hundreds and a lot of patients cannot afford that.
