Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Bipolar Disorder (BPD), and Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD) are three psychiatric conditions that often present with similar symptoms, making accurate diagnosis challenging for clinicians. This session will provide a comprehensive overview of the differential diagnosis of ADHD and highlight the nuances involved in identifying and differentiating ADHD from other psychiatric and neurological conditions that may present with similar symptoms. Participants will gain an understanding of the various diagnostic tools and methods used in clinical practice to accurately diagnose ADHD, including clinical interviews, rating scales, and neuropsychological assessments.
