Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder(A D H D) and anxiety are common in adolescents, but the relationship between Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder severity and anxiety levels has not been investigated. This study aims to clarify these relationships and suggest necessary interventions to address both conditions. Purpose: The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder severity and anxiety levels in adolescents and to investigate the relationship between different Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder symptoms. Method: In this study, an independent sample t-test was used to compare Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity DISORDERAnxiety level. Between positive and negative groups. Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated to assess the relationship between inattention symptoms, hyperactive motor behaviour, impulsive speech, and anxiety. Results: Independent sample t-test showed that there was a difference in stress severity between positive and negative Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity DISORDERgroups (t = 4.63, df = 105, p < .001). Additionally, Pearson correlation analysis showed a positive relationship between Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder symptoms and anxiety levels (r = 0.633, p < 0.001), inattention symptoms (r = 0.191, p = 0.049) and negative behavi0urs (r = 0.594, p < 0.001). ) and impulsive verbal behaviours (r = 0.443, p < 0.001) are associated with anxiety. Good: Findings suggest an interaction between Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder severity and anxiety levels in young adults. Different Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder symptoms show different relationships with anxiety, reflecting the different nature of these conditions. Appropriate interventions to address Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder symptoms and related anxiety are important to improving youth's health. Further research is needed to refine treatment for this vulnerable population and investigate long-term and associated effects to improve outcomes
