Forum Description

You might not realize it, but if you or your children live with ADHD, these issues could bring on or worsen headaches — and they might even worsen your ADHD. For some people, headaches might stem from undiagnosed ADHD. When headaches are frequent and debilitating, students miss school days, and adults lose time at work, adding to the stress.
