Comorbidity
View through CrossRef
Anxiety and depression often co-occur in children with ADHD and this comorbidity can also occur across the lifespan. Such comorbidity is associated with adverse outcomes across several domains. The origin of the overlap between these disorders is discussed, including the role of shared risk factors such as common genes, environmental factors, potential association with a third disorder, or as a separate nosological entity. Abnormalities in neurochemistry and findings from imaging studies are discussed. Key components of clinical assessment are discussed together with differential diagnoses, including challenges that clinicians may encounter. Treatment approaches for comorbid ADHD with emotional disorders are outlined.
