Abstract: Anxiety (generalised, separation, school refusal, social, or obsessive compulsive) is common in about a third of children with ADHD.A similar proportion of older children and adolescents with ADHD also experience depression and irritability that is usually persistent (dysthymia).Suicidal behaviour can be a risk, perhaps exacerbated by impulsiveness.
