What is ADHD?
March 17, 2022 |  Steve Dugluss
ADHD is a mental illness that can start in infancy and last into adulthood. The
symptoms can be mild or severe and interfere with daily life activities. There
is  no  single  cause  of  ADHD;  it  is  considered  to  have  components  that
represent genetic and environmental influences.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a condition that affects
millions of children and adults worldwide. It causes problems with attention,
focus,  memory,  and  behavior.  Symptoms  include  trouble  paying  attention,
being  quickly  distracted,  being  easily  irritated,  having  difficulty  following
through  on  tasks,  talking  too  much,  interrupting  others,  not  listening  when
spoken  to  directly,  and  fidgeting.  In  some  cases,  people  with ADHD  have
trouble  organizing  their  time  and  may  find  themselves  constantly  late  for
appointments  or  missing  important  events.  These  symptoms  can  affect
school performance, relationships, and job success.
What are the causes of ADHD?
It is one of the most common mental disorders in children and adolescents,
affecting  about  5%  of  the  population.  Although  the  etiology  of  ADHD  is
uncertain,  hereditary  and  environmental  factors  cause  it.  Some  possible
causes of ADHD include genetics, exposure to toxins, premature birth, and
low birth weight.
There  are  many  reasons  children  develop  attention  deficit  hyperactivity
disorder (ADHD). But what exactly causes it? The most common cause of
ADHD is genetics. If both parents have ADHD, their child has a 50% chance
of developing it.
But other factors can contribute to ADHD. These include:
Brain injury: This can happen when a baby gets hit on the head during
birth. It can also occur later in life if someone has a brain injury, such as
a concussion.
Environmental toxins: This includes exposure to lead, mercury,
pesticides, and other chemicals.
Poor Nutrition: A lack of nutrients such as iron, zinc, vitamin B12, and
omega­three fatty acids can affect brain development.
Stress: When a person is worried, their body casts adrenaline, which
affects the brain.
Sleep deprivation: Lack of sleep can affect brain function.
ADHD Symptoms
ADHD symptoms vary from person to person, but attention, hyperactivity, and
impulsivity are included. For children, symptoms of ADHD can impact their
ability  to  learn  and  get  along  with  others.  Adults  with  ADHD  may  have
difficulty managing time, setting goals, and organizing tasks.
ADHD symptoms in Children
Attention  Deficit  Hyperactivity  Disorder  (ADHD)  affects  millions  of  children
worldwide. The National Institute of Mental Health estimates that one out of
ten children has ADHD.
If you suspect that your child may have ADHD, here are some symptoms:
Hyperactivity: Children with ADHD tend to move too much. They may
fidget, squirm, or tap their feet. They may run around the house, talk
excessively, or interrupt conversations.
Impulsivity: Children with ADHD often act before thinking. They may
jump into situations without considering the consequences. Or they
may fail to consider the feelings of others when making decisions.
Trouble Concentrating: Children with ADHD often have trouble
focusing on schoolwork or activities. They may miss details or make
careless mistakes.
Lack of Self­Control: Children with ADHD often lack self­control. They
may break the rules or engage in risky behaviors. They may overeat or
drink too much.
ADHD Symptoms in Adults
According to the National Institute of Mental Health, adult ADHD is “a brain
disorder  characterized  by  persistent  difficulties  with  paying  attention,
controlling impulses, and keeping focused.”
The symptoms of adult ADHD include:
Inattention: Inattentive behavior is defined as being less attentive than
usual. This can manifest itself in many ways, such as not paying
attention to what others are saying, not listening to instructions,
forgetting what needs to be remembered, and having difficulty following
through with tasks.
Hyperactivity: Hyperactive behavior is defined by fidgeting, squirming,
running around, talking excessively, interrupting other people, and being
unable to sit still.
Impulsivity: Impulsive behavior is described as acting without thinking
about consequences. This may result in poor decision­making, risky
behaviors, and trouble controlling emotions.
Difficulty Maintaining Focus: People with ADHD often find it
challenging to stay focused on one task for an extended period. They
may also have problems staying organized and completing
assignments.
Problems With Memory: People with ADHD often have trouble
remembering information such as appointments, directions, or phone
numbers.
The difference between ADHD and ADD
The  critical  and  significant  difference  between  the  two  conditions  is  that
children with ADHD often exhibit symptoms as early as infancy. Still, adults
with ADD typically don’t start experiencing symptoms until later.
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is a mental disorder characterized by focus,
hyperactivity,  and  impulsiveness  problems.  It  is  one  of  the  most  common
mental disorders in children and adolescents. ADD symptoms can interfere
with a person’s ability to succeed in school or work and lead to problems in
relationships. There is no single cause of ADD, but genetic and environmental
factors are believed to be responsible.
Inattention,  hyperactivity,  and  impulsiveness  are  common  attention  deficit
hyperactivity  disorders  (ADHD).  A  person  with  ADHD  may  have  difficulty
focusing on a task, be overly active, and have trouble controlling impulses.
Attention Deficit Disorder A person with ADHD may have difficulty focusing
on a task, be overly active, and have trouble controlling impulses. Attention
Deficit Disorder (ADD) is a similar condition that shares many of the same
symptoms as ADHD. However, people with ADD are not as hyperactive as
those  with  ADHD.  Some  people  with  ADD  also  have  problems  with
organization and time management.
How do doctors diagnose ADHD?
It is estimated that 3­5% of children in the United States have ADHD. Many
people  wonder  how  doctors  diagnose  ADHD.  Diagnosing  ADHD  usually
involves  a  combination  of  interviews  with  the  child  and  parents  and  rating
scales or questionnaires that the doctor or parents fill out. Doctors will then
use this information to make a diagnosis.
ADHD  is  one  of  the  most  prevalent  neurodevelopmental  diseases,
distinguished  by  attention,  hyperactivity,  and  impulsivity  difficulties.  The
disorder  can  be  challenging  to  diagnose,  as  its  symptoms  often  resemble
other conditions. To make a diagnosis, doctors typically use a combination of
clinical assessment and information from parents and teachers. There is no
specific diagnostic for ADHD, but doctors use particular criteria to identify the
condition.
There is no definitive test to diagnose ADHD. A healthcare professional will
often  use  various  methods  to  make  a  diagnosis.  They  may  ask  about
symptoms and medical history and conduct a physical exam. They may also
use psychological tests or rating scales to help them make a diagnosis.
Is there any treatment for ADHD?
Many  treatments  are  available  for  ADHD,  including  medication,  behavior
therapy, and psychotherapy. One of the best ways to treat ADHD is through
medication. Cure has proven effective at treating ADHD in children, although
some medications are better than others. For example, stimulant drugs like
Ritalin  and  Adderall  effectively  reduce  ADHD  symptoms.  Other  types  of
medication include antidepressants, which can improve moods and reduce
anxiety.
Some  people  prefer  non­pharmacological  approaches,  such  as  Cognitive
behavioral therapy. This theory is an effective treatment for ADHD. In a study
of  cognitive­behavioral  treatment  for  ADHD,  researchers  found  that  the
treatment  was  associated  with  significant  reductions  in  ADHD  symptoms.
The treatment was also associated with improvements in mental health and
quality of life.
Another way to treat ADHD is through behavioral therapy. Behavioral therapy
is a psychological treatment that helps people learn new skills to manage their
problems. It is based on the idea that our behavior is affected by our thoughts,
feelings,  and  environment.  Behavioral  therapy  can  help  people  with ADHD
learn new ways to control their behavior.
How to deal with someone who has ADHD?
Many strategies can help someone with ADHD manage their symptoms. One
is to break down tasks into smaller parts and make a checklist of what needs
to be done. It can also be helpful to set time limits for completing tasks and
establish regular routines. The person with ADHD needs to avoid distractions
as much as possible to focus on the task at hand.
It’s also essential for loved ones to be patient and understanding. Remember
that people with ADHD are not lazy or stubborn; they have a different way of
processing information, but there are ways to make it easier. Here are a few
tips:
← What is an anxiety? What is Back Pain? →
Learn as much as you can about ADHD. The further you understand
the situation, the more prepared you will be to assist your loved one.
Be patient and understanding. ADHD can be frustrating for both the
person with the disorder and those around them. Try not to get angry or
frustrated quickly.
Encourage your loved one to exercise and eat healthy foods. Exercise
and good nutrition can help improve ADHD symptoms.
If you notice changes in your loved one’s behavior, talk to them and try
to understand what might be causing it. You don’t need to wait until they
tell you something before trying to help.
If you’re worried about your loved one having trouble getting along with
other people, encourage them to join a sports team or social group. This
can help them develop friendships and become part of a community.
ADHD Medication
Although there is no one­size­fits­all therapy for ADHD, it is common to give
drugs  to  manage  symptoms.  Stimulants  are  the  most  commonly  used
medications  to  treat  ADHD.  They  improve  concentration  while  lowering
hyperactivity  and  impulsivity.  Antidepressants  and  anti­anxiety  drugs  are
examples of other medicines that may be provided.
There are three main types of ADHD medication: stimulants, non­stimulants,
and atomoxetine. Stimulants are the most commonly used type of medication
for  ADHD.  They  consist  of  drugs  such  as  methylphenidate  Ritalin  and
amphetamine  dextroamphetamine  Adderall.  Stimulants  help  improve  focus
and  attention,  decrease  hyperactivity  and  impulsiveness,  and  improve
academic performance.
Medication  can  be  beneficial  for  some  persons  with  ADHD,  but  it  is  not
always  feasible.  For  instance,  if  the  person  does  not  respond  well  to
medication, they may benefit from additional counseling or behavioral therapy.
In  conclusion,  ADHD  is  a  disorder  that  impacts  many  people  and  can
significantly  affect  their  lives.  While  many  treatments  are  available,  not
everyone responds to them the same way. There’s still a lot to learn about
ADHD and how to treat it. Please get treatment from a doctor or therapist if
you or someone you know suffers from ADHD.
