Clarification: From the research out there the "hallmark" issue of ADHD is self-regulation and in particular the ability to inhibit responses. These issues pervade the symptoms so clearly described by other Drs. ADHD individuals have difficulty stopping themselves once started down a path, they are generally impulsive, quick to act before thinking. Hope that helps.
