However, in spite of the fact that they knew when and why they failed in doing something, they were unable to come up with an effective plan to solve the condition. Boys were mainly indifferent to the reaction others displayed at their behavior while girls were severely affected by anything that was a direct result of their behavior (Krueger, and Kendall). Most ADHD adults are capable to understand their condition and to attempt to find answers to their problem. However, they too are expected to put on view antisocial behavior, even after undergoing treatment. Substance use is also a common occurrence in ADHD adults, as the influence of those who were formerly close to them is reduced and they cannot be controlled suitably (Wilens et al.).

All things considered, ADHD individuals can display a perfectly normal behavior and it is wrong to have a biased opinion regarding them.
