From the good folks at Eli Lilly adultadd.com

Until the 1970s, it was believed that Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) was strictly a childhood disorder, and that children outgrew it in adolescence. Only gradually was it realized that while the hyperactivity component may diminish, the attention and impulsive aspects can persist into adulthood.

Symptoms commonly associated with Adult ADD include:

-Lack of focus
-Disorganization
-Restlessness
-Difficulty finishing projects
-Losing things

These symptoms interfere with success at work and get in the way at home or with friends. Many adults do not realize that they have Adult ADD until their own child is diagnosed with the disorder. Only then do they recognize the pattern of problems they have faced since childhood. They are relieved that there is a name for the frustration they have felt all their lives, and there are therapies and treatments designed to help.
