ATTENTION DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER (ADHD)
Introduction.
Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurobehavioral disorder most commonly diagnosed in children. The average age for diagnosis is seven, while adults can also develop symptoms of it (Holland, 2013). It is a globally recognized neurological dysfunction, which the person has trouble inhibiting unfortunate. It is commonly genetic. The crucial or the core features are the hyperactivity or compulsiveness. To validate the diagnosis of ADHD, the person must have more than one of the symptoms which should be present and cause difficulty to his or her life. The important factor of understanding individuals with Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is often found together with other symptoms which repeats itself rather than only one condition. Treatment of the symptoms of ADHD involves the use of medication, psychotherapy (behavioral treatment), or a combination of the two. ADHD is a behavioral problem, not a medical one, and as such medication should not be used in the treatment of ADHD.
History of ADHD
ADHD was first mentioned by a British a pediatrician, Sir George Still in early 1900s, who described it is an abnormal defect of moral control in children. He found that a mentally disabled children could not function as well as a healthy kids, but were still intelligent (Holland, 2013).He believed it was a medical issue not spiritual. The American Psychological Association issued the first Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) in 1952. This
included a list of all the known mental disorders, causes, risk factors, and treatments for each condition. The history of ADHD wasn’t known until the 20th century which American physicians started to classify it as “mentally deficient” individuals who had difficulty focusing on a specific task. In 1980 the American Psychiatric Association (APA) change the name of the disorder (ADD).Scientist believe that hyperactivity was not a symptom of the disorder, which created two subtypes of AD: ADD with or without hyperactivity.(Holland 2013). In 1987 the APA published a revised version of the third edition of DSM, and changed the name to ADHD. There are three predominate categories of ADHD. One subtype describes those who are predominantly hyperactive and impulsive.
The second category includes those who are predominantly inattentive. This subtype includes symptoms that are considered hyperactivity or impulsivity. The third major category of ADHD and the most common one which combines hyperactivity and impulsive behavior with being inattentive.
` On the other hand, ADHD can carry on into adulthood, thus logically there is a high possibility, that adults can have the same pattern of symptoms dating back to their childhood.(pg 10)book. History of the adults having ADHD see ...
ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) are psychiatric disorders belonging to the area neurodevelopmental concerns.
ADHD is a problem with inattentiveness, over-activity, impulsivity, or a combination. For these problems to be diagnosed as ADHD, they must be out of the normal range for a child's age and development.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
2. Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most
common mental health disorders affecting children across the world.
Although the disorder strikes at a younger age, the symptoms may
penetrate even into the adulthood. Most children diagnosed with
ADHD show debilitating behaviors such as inattention, hyperactivity
and impulsivity, which interfere with their activities in school or at
home.
3. According to a recent report by the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), as of 2011, nearly 11 percent American children
aged 4 to 17 years were diagnosed with ADHD.
Sadly, ADHD is often misdiagnosed by doctors, primarily due to its
overlapping symptoms with other mental health conditions, such as
bipolar disorder, autism, sleep disorders, etc. Only a mental health
professional can differentiate between the symptoms of ADHD and
other mental health conditions.
4. Listed below are a few mental illnesses whose symptoms mirror ADHD
symptoms:
1. Bipolar disorder
While bipolar disorder is a mood disorder that results in unusual shifts in
mood, energy and activity levels and hampers the ability to carry out
day-to-day tasks, it is often confused with ADHD due to the presence
of certain common symptoms, like mood instability, sudden outbursts,
restlessness, talkativeness and impatience.
5. 2. Autism spectrum disorder
A child diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) exhibits a group
of developmental disorders comprising ongoing social problems and
repetitive behaviors that usually appear during the formative years.
Some of the symptoms of ASD, such as hyperactivity, social
development issues, and emotional immaturity, often overlap with the
symptoms of ADHD, which, in turn, leads to misdiagnosis.
6. 3. Sleep disorders
Children diagnosed with ADHD suffer from a variety of sleep problems.
Studies have shown that children with ADHD often exhibit daytime
sleeping habits and poor sleeping patterns, which may profoundly
impact the existing symptoms of ADHD. Thus, sleep deprivation,
which is a growing problem among the American children, is often
mistaken as a symptom of ADHD.
7. 4. Fetal alcohol syndrome
When a woman drinks alcohol during her pregnancy, it is very likely that
the newborn will suffer from fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS), resulting in
problems with the vision, hearing ability, memory, attention span, etc.
Such infants are also likely to exhibit several other behavioral
problems, such as hyperactivity, attention problems and learning
disorders, which are often misdiagnosed as ADHD.
8. 5. Hypothyroidism
Also referred to as an underactive thyroid disease, hypothyroidism leads
to both under and overproduction of thyroid hormones in a child, which
leads to energy imbalances, mood disorders and problems in
concentration. The disorder also triggers the feelings of sadness,
depression, and memory problems, which often misleads a health
care practitioner to misdiagnose the condition as ADHD.
9. Road to recovery
Mental health issues can affect anyone at any stage of life. If you or
someone you love is struggling with a mental health illness, it's better
to consult a specialist. Mental health disorders can impact children
and adults alike. One must seek professional help if it becomes
cumbersome to deal with a mental health issue. Ignoring signs of a
mental problem, especially in children, can lead to complications and
may even threaten life.
