ADHD is usually first diagnosed in elementary school aged children, around the ages of 6-12 years old. However, symptoms may begin to appear in preschool or earlier, but may not be recognized until the child enters school. It is rare to diagnose ADHD in infancy or middle school, as symptoms become more apparent as a child grows and matures.
