You've been mostly concerned with your teen's well-being. But is it possible that you have symptoms of ADHD as well?

If so, you are far from alone. When a child or teen is diagnosed with ADHD, parents and/or relatives often realize that they may also have the condition and are at an increased risk for ADHD.²

ADHD does have a significant genetic component:

• If your child has ADHD, your risk for having the disorder is
  29%⁶
• If you have a parent with ADHD, your risk for having the disorder is over 50%⁶
• If your sibling has ADHD, your risk for having the disorder is 41%⁶
• If your identical twin has ADHD, your risk for having the disorder is 80%⁶

When individuals are diagnosed as adults, they often experience a kind of relief—an "aha" moment—that helps them understand what may have been decades of frustration with difficulties at school and work.
