ADHD

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, also known as ADHD. ADHD usually emerges during childhood, and may even transition onto adulthood. This disorder pairs an inability to focus with impulsive and overly active behaviors that interfere in an individual’s everyday life and interactions.

What are its symptoms?

While problems with attention and restlessness are present in ADHD, there are various other manifestations that can also help better single out this disorder. Below are some symptoms that can help identify the signs of ADHD:

  • Physical movement that is excessive, restless, and constant.

  • An inability to stay still or remain seated, especially during times that require the person to be still.

  • A demeanor of impatience that may come about in many forms, such as the inability to wait for one’s turn or interrupting conversations.

  • Difficulty paying attention or remaining attentive to one subject for long.

  • Impulsive behavior that rarely is thought-out or considered.

How can we help?

Suffering from ADHD is a difficult for those who experience it, and equally so for their close ones. Seeking a mental health professional is not only essential for managing symptoms, but also helpful in managing the difficulty that comes from the lack of understanding of their situation from those around them.

Treatment modalities:

Therapy for ADHD can come in many forms such as interventions focused on managing behaviors, or psychotherapeutic approaches that assist in identifying impulsive behaviors and providing mindfulness techniques to help create a more thought out decision making.
