ADHD or attention defecit hyperactive disorder can have many different effects.
internally, or in the brain, Scientists once thought that a chemical imbalance was involved in many cases of ADHD because adults and children diagnosed with ADHD appear to have low levels of dopamine (dopa decarboxylase), a chemical that sends messages to the part of the brain involved in attention, movement and motivation. But brain scans of children with ADHD also show changes in the neural pathways along which these messages move. It's possible that this may interfere with communication between the parts of the brain that regulate attention, planning, impulsive behavior and motor control — all areas of difficulty for people with ADHD.
externally, people with adhd are usually openly hyper. In addition, many ADHD drugs supress appetite, so sometimes kids with ADHD can be skinnier
