More than 2.: There are many subtle variations of ADHD. SOme have more physical signs, others are almost exclusively daydreaming. Every child with ADHD can be a different mixture of each. ADHD can also be flavored with other health problems or mental health concerns that are also an issue (Autism, Depression, etc.)
