Despite achieving many successes on screen, being dubbed a "million-dollar actor", "box office king", Thai Hoa chooses a quiet life and rarely appears at crowded events. The actor said he suffers from crowd phobia syndrome, and also has manifestations of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Not only Thai Hoa, "martial arts legend" Jackie Chan also publicly admitted for the first time that he had ADHD since he was young, showing that even successful and famous artists can still face health challenges.

Besides Thai Hoa, Jackie Chan, many world celebrities have publicly suffered from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), turning challenges into motivation for success.
Typical examples include Olympic athlete Michael Phelps, actress Emma Watson, Jim Carrey, Ryan Gosling, director Greta Gerwig and singer Justin Timberlake...
According to the CDC, in adults, ADHD often manifests through signs such as: difficulty maintaining concentration, slowness or failure to complete work, easily changing emotions, lack of patience and difficulty maintaining relationships.
Hyperactivity in adults is often no longer a running or excessive activity behavior like in young children, but manifests in the form of restlessness and stress.
In addition, people with ADHD are also at higher risk of anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and substance use disorders.
ADHD is a neurological developmental disorder with obvious genetic and biological factors, which can occur in anyone. There are several reasons why celebrities like Thai Hoa and Thanh Long are prone to ADHD such as:
Special professional environment: Artists often work in high-pressure environments, erratic schedules, must constantly be creative and change. Characteristics such as restlessness, difficulty maintaining long-term concentration, easily changing emotions... can become more obvious in this environment.
Dynamic, creative personality: Some characteristics of ADHD such as many ideas, abundant energy, and quick thinking may be suitable for the arts and entertainment fields, making people with these characteristics easier to pursue and succeed in the industry.
Openness to share: Celebrities tend to publicize their mental health status to inspire, so the public knows more than ordinary people.
Media pressure: Excessive attention, public pressure can make symptoms such as anxiety, stress, or emotional loss more obvious, easily confused, or accompanied by ADHD.
Despite facing challenges from ADHD, Thai Hoa and Thanh Long still strive to overcome their personal limits, turning difficulties into motivation to conquer the peak of their careers and leave a strong mark in the hearts of the public.
