Do I Have ADHD? Dr.
Tracy Thomas Helps
You Diagnose & Treat
Symptoms
While ADHD tends to be associated with children, there are millions of adults who are living
with the condition. While it is also sadly often associated with negative traits, Dr. Tracy
Thomas believes that with the right knowledge and strategies, these traits can be incredibly
positive.
She also understands that while tools and resources
for children and young people who need to manage

their lives are out of their control.
The announcement coincides with the latest figures from the CDC, which indicated that

have been diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
By comparison, the overall prevalence of
current adult ADHD is 4.4%. However, taking

adult population in the country, this means
some 11.3 million adults are currently living with
the condition.
Dr. Tracy Thomas understands that figure also doesn’t take into
account those adults who are living without a diagnosis but who are
experiencing the key characteristics of the condition.
Her new coaching service offers you a pathway to

condition is often misunderstood or maligned.

will help you to take control of your life and identify the many benefits that are
in fact concomitant with the disorder.
Dr. Tracy is also proud to present
similar advice on emotional
sensitivity to interested followers in
her new self-help book 'The
Commitments'.
