People with inattentive ADHD can pay attention and focus on things they find captivating or exciting, but they struggle to sustain attention adequately on important non-preferred tasks, like schoolwork or assignments at work. In this hour-long ADDitude webinar with Thomas E. Brown, Ph.D., and Ryan J. Kennedy, DNP, explain how inattentive type ADHD is diagnosed and how to effectively treat it. It will also correct common misunderstandings about medications for ADHD and why they need to be “fine-tuned” to be effective.
