Hiperatividade em Adultos
Para os que se sentem sempre a mais num mundo que pede calma... Ajudamos a encontrar o seu ritmo sem se travar.
O que é a Hiperatividade?
No adulto, a Hiperatividade é uma dificuldade persistente em desacelerar, seja nos pensamentos, nas decisões ou na necessidade constante de estar em ação.
Quem a vive por dentro sabe o cansaço de nunca conseguir verdadeiramente parar.
Está frequentemente associada à PHDA, mas pode surgir de forma isolada com impacto real na vida profissional e nas relações.
Main types of Anxiety Disorder
The manifestation of Anxiety may be slightly different when we talk about children and adolescents:
das crianças e dos adolescentes:
Types of Anxiety Disorder in Children
em Crianças
- Separation anxiety: intense fear of moving away from parents; it can arise as school refusal.
- Selective Mutism:speaks normally at home, but blocks in other contexts (school, consultations).
- Specific phobias:exaggerated fear of objects or situations (animals, dark, thunderstorms, injections).
- Social anxiety:extreme shame and fear of public speaking or being judged.
- Generalized anxiety: constant concerns (health, school, parental safety), with tension and “anticipation of the worst”.
Types of Anxiety Disorder in Adolescents
em Adolescentes
- Social anxiety: intense fear of judgment in interactions (presentations, sports, parties).
- Generalized anxiety: constant worries (future, grades, body, relationships), with tension, irritability and insomnia.
- Panic disorder:sudden attacks of anxiety and fear that they will happen again.
- Agoraphobia: avoid places with many people (transport, shopping centers) for fear of not being able to leave.
- Specific phobias:exaggerated fear of situations such as heights, flight, driving, blood, injections.
- Health-related anxiety: excessive concern with diseases or use of medicines.
Sintomas da Hiperatividade em Adultos
- Faz a compra por impulso e depois se arrepende
- Em conversa, a resposta já está formada antes de o outro terminar a frase
- Fica desconfortável ao ter que aguardar a sua vez de falar na reunião
- Sabe que devia esperar, mas o impulso chega sempre antes da razão
- Deita-se para descansar mas a mente não para de planear o dia (a semana, o mês) seguinte
- Um dia sem tarefas não é descanso, é desconforto
- Os outros dizem que precisa de parar, mas parar é o que lhe custa mais
- Manda a mensagem ou diz o que pensa, e só depois pondera se devia

Diagnóstico da Hiperatividade em Adultos
O diagnóstico da Hiperatividade em adultos deve ser realizado por um profissional especializado (psicólogo, psiquiatra) e baseia-se numa avaliação clínica completa, que pode incluir entrevistas, questionários e testes psicológicos.
Na NeuroImprove, recorremos também ao Eletroencefalograma Quantitativo (qEEG), um exame complementar que permite obter um diagnóstico mais preciso e, por isso, um tratamento mais eficaz.
No qEEG, o subtipo Hiperativo está frequentemente associado a:
🧠 Um excesso das ondas Beta e High Beta
🧠 Uma diminuição da onda Alpha
Costuma observar-se, portanto, um mapa cerebral semelhante a este:
PHDA Combined
As the name suggests, it is a combination of the symptoms presented by the two other subtypes: inattentive and hyperactive-impulsive.
PHDA Combinada
Como o próprio nome indica, trata-se da combinação dos sintomas apresentados pelos dois outros subtipos: desatento e hiperativo-impulsivo.

My daughter had a lot of anxiety that was even affecting her at school level but thanks to this treatment she improved immensely. This would be very noticeable in school and it does not seem the same. I recommend.
I really liked the accompaniment. What we want to improve is always taken into account and affects us the most. I am a completely different person, much calmer and more focused. Neurofeedback makes all the difference! I strongly advise those who manage to get green for this type of treatment
I liked it from the care to the treatment, my son is 8 years old suffers from anxiety and has attention deficit. With the help of neurofeedback you can already control your anxiety, you are calmer and more confident and your attention has improved a lot.
We are having an excellent experience. In a few sessions and you can already notice results. Great professionals and very welcoming, both at the reception and therapists. Thank you
I found a friend at the NeuroImprove Clinic when I was already desperate because all the doors were closing for my son. Today he is a teenager with friends and a super normal life, and with a very strong self-esteem. This achievement of mine is due to this magnificent clinic that has a team of excellent professionals.
Fantastic clinic and team and always looking for agenda solutions and helping the children in this case my daughter. I highly recommend coming to Porto from Lisbon because the confidence is maximum and the support, the professionalism of the teams, the way they explain the progress of the sessions can only give improvements..
It's been a very positive experience. Although there are not many sessions yet, we have already noticed differences in our son. We always give feedback in all sessions and we have the opportunity to follow the results with the evaluations made before, during and after the program. Thank you all, they are an excellent team.

An excellent follow-up with results that exceeded my expectations in my child's Hyperactivity.
I noticed a lot of differences in my son, namely in his behavior, more in relation to me, that we were with authority problems, but thank goodness he has corrected! And if I eventually need treatment again, this is where I will go for sure! Many thanks to the whole team always ready to help, and Dra. Beatriz for all the support and affection given throughout our journey! Thank you all at NeuroImprove 🙏❤️
