Great questions!: Adhd symptoms can improve or even go away over time in certain individuals. How much the symptoms affect your day to day life also vary throughout one's life. If symptoms are affecting work, social or home life as an adult it may be beneficial to take medicine. Many adults find ways to compensate like lists, recordings, etc. Most adhd medicines are not harmful taken appropriately for extended tim.
