Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. People with ADHD have great difficulty paying attention, are motor overactive, and behave impulsively (they often make ill-considered decisions and act hastily). They are poorly able to finish anything (thoughts, work) and therefore experience many failures, which can lead to feelings of depression. The downside of this is that people with ADHD are often creative and entrepreneurial.
