ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) - Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a developmental disorder that begins in early childhood and affects both children and adults. (ADHD Australia, 2024)

Adult ADHD - Adults with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) often have difficulty concentrating for long periods of time, are easily distracted, or might act or speak before thinking things through. While we might all have these difficulties from time to time, people with ADHD have significant and ongoing difficulties in these areas, which can affect their broader lives, particularly their study, work, and relationships. International studies estimate that about 3% of adults worldwide have been diagnosed with ADHD, with the condition becoming less common in older age groups. While ADHD begins in childhood and symptoms typically improve as children get older, some will continue to have ADHD as adults. (Australian Psychological Society, 2025)

Metamour - Two people who share a partner, but are not romantically or sexually involved with each other.
