The 6 Types of ADHD

Not all ADHD looks the same. Dr. Cowan’s framework — built around characters every parent already knows from the Hundred Acre Wood — helps you recognize your child and find what actually works for their brain.

1
Tigger

Hyperactive-Impulsive

Bouncing, blurting, never stops moving.

 2
Winnie the Pooh

Inattentive

Daydreamy, drifting, slow to start.

 3
Rabbit

Over-Focused

Rigid, stuck, melts down at change.

 4
Piglet

ADHD with Anxiety

Nervous, fearful, shuts down under pressure.

 5
Eeyore

Sluggish & Sad

Low motivation, slow, running on empty.

You weren’t lazy — you were undiagnosed. It’s not too late to understand your brain.
This isn’t a character flaw. This is a brain working hard under significant load — and a brain like that can be helped. Freedom is the goal. The door is open.
— Dr. Douglas Cowan, Psy.D., MFT
