Losing Items
As a result of the hyperactivity, reduced ability to concentrate and reduced attention span that ADHD causes, forgetfulness is another common symptom. It may be hard to recognize forgetfulness at first. However, one commonly noticed sign is losing items.1‘Symptoms.’ NHS, 21 Sept. 2020, www.nhs.uk/conditions/attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder-adhd/symptoms
As those with ADHD are typically mentally overstimulated, they can forget where they last saw an item or where they put it. Common items that people lose include keys, stationery, wallets and cell phones.
