Procrastination has been linked as a symptom to a disorder called ADHD (Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder). It is hard to get over procrastination without any disorder but it is even harder for people with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. A recent study has shown that adults with attention deficit disorder have a much higher chance of procrastinating than other normal adults. People with this disorder have a very difficult time concentrating on tasks, especially tasks that are difficult. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder sufferers can be easily distracted by even the smallest of things, and this makes it extremely easy to put important things off. Adults and children with ADHD are often described as having troubles with completing tasks on time and organizing.  They are often easily stresses, impatient, and short tempered. All these symptoms are not at all helpful when they are trying to complete a difficult task. There has been research supporting the thought that the diagnosis of frequent delays while trying to complete a task. Unfortunately, there is not a lot of research in the strategies in dealing with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder patient’s procrastination. Hopefully there will be more help assisted to ADHD patients in the near future.
