Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
ID often is accompanied by other mental, medical, and physical conditions like epilepsy and cerebral palsy. The most common comorbid conditions are attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorder, autism spectrum disorder, and stereotypical movement disorder. [1]
Prognosis
People with mild to moderate ID are able to live independently and be successful at jobs requiring simple tasks while people with severe ID will require lifetime support. [2]
