Let's begin right now with LESSON ONE: WHAT IS ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER? What Is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - ADD or ADHD? Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, often called ADD or ADHD , is a diagnostic label that we give to children and adults who have significant problems in four main areas of their lives: Inattention, Impulsivity, Hyperactivity, Boredom
This position has become controversial as many would like to dismiss the diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder altogether saying that there is no evidence of neurological differences, or that there are no medical tests to diagnose ADD ADHD, or that the diagnostic criteria is too broad
ADHD is not the result of "bad parenting" or obnoxious, willful defiance on the part of the child
We make no excuses for "immoral, " "selfish, " or "destructive" behaviors, whether from individuals with ADD ADHD or not

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | _ ADD / ADHD & Behavioral Problems: Nutritional Causes, Prevention and Therapies Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) have become a medical craze of unparalleled proportions
As many as 20% of children (some estimates are higher) - the majority of them boys - are now on any of a number of drugs marketed to treat ADD, or ADHD (Adderall, Attenade, Concerta, Cylert, Dexedrine, Focaline, Metadate, Ritalin, Strattera, and others)
It is one of the most prevalent of all childhood "psychiatric" disorders, although ADD/ADHD is a common diagnosis for adults as well
Since there is no conclusive test to prove whether someone is suffering from Attention Deficit Disorder, the diagnosis of either ADD or ADHD is highly subjective, although in 1998 the Eastman Kodak Co
by chance discovered a novel approach to spotting the disorder: They found that the temperature in the fingertips of ADD/ADHD patients fluctuates differently from non-ADHD patients, which may lead to the commercial development of a more accurate diagnostic tool to better and faster assess this condition

> > > > ADHD ADHD stands for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
ADHD used to be known as attention deficit disorder , or ADD
In 1994, it was renamed ADHD
The term ADD is sometimes still used, though, to describe a type of ADHD that doesn't involve hyperactivity
ADHD is a medical condition that affects how well someone can sit still, focus, and pay attention
People with ADHD have differences in the parts of their brains that control attention and activity
Symptoms and Signs of ADHD Although ADHD begins in childhood, sometimes it's not diagnosed until a person is a teen — and occasionally not even until someone reaches adulthood
Because ADHD is a broad category covering different things — attention, activity, and impulsivity — it can show up in different ways in different people
Some of the signs of ADHD are when someone: has difficulty paying attention or staying focused on a task or activity has problems finishing assignments at school or home and jumps from one activity to another has trouble focusing on instructions and difficulty following through loses or forgets things such as homework is easily distracted, even when doing something fun has problems paying close attention to details or makes careless mistakes has trouble organizing tasks and activities has difficulty waiting one's turn interrupts or intrudes on other people blurts out answers before questions have been completed fidgets with hands or feet or squirms about when seated feels restless talks excessively and has trouble engaging in activities quietly Of course, it's normal for everyone to zone out in a boring class, jump into a conversation, or leave their homework on the kitchen table once in a while
