Answer: ADHD.

Explanation: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, also known as ADHD, is a group of behavioral disorders which symptoms are hyperactivity, impulsiveness and inattentiveness. People who have been diagnosed with ADHD may also experience sleeping problems and anxiety disorders. Even though energetic children who have difficulty sitting quietly for long periods in school, are likely to be diagnosed with ADHD, that may not be the case at times.
