A Young adolescent with undiagnosed ADHD-inattentive presentation and co-morbid anxiety and depression: A case report
This case report discusses a young adolescent with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) - inattentive presentation, and comorbid anxiety and depression that was not diagnosed until age 13. However, most ADHD is diagnosed before age 12. Anxiety and depression are common comorbidities of ADHD that present in primary care and can mimic the symptoms of ADHD. Due to the shortage of trained pediatric behavioral and mental health specialists, primary care pediatric nurse practitioners often diagnose and manage children and adolescents with ADHD and various comorbid conditions. It is essential to look for red flags in young children, especially in ADHD inattentive presentation, because symptoms are often masked and go unrecognized, undiagnosed, and untreated for years, resulting in academic and social problems causing the child and family stress, frustration, and reduced quality of life.
