4. Incapable of sitting down for long
This symptom has to do with the previous one, but it has a particular impact on a person’s life, especially if they are attending school or working at a desk, which isn’t uncommon these days.
People with ADHD rarely last long sitting on the same chair. They stand up, walk around, and move in different ways. It is very difficult to keep them sitting down, even in situations when it would be expected.
Again, this particular difficulty is often seen as misconduct and punished, because of the way our culture works.
