Children with ADHD are often restless, hyperactive, have difficulty completing tasks or focusing on a project, are disruptive or impulsive. Many children with ADHD are extremely bright and capable. They often excel at certain skills, while having great difficulties with others. Their behavior can be destructive and can often cause painful social and academic consequences.

On the other hand, some call it a phantom diagnosis created to stimulate health care industry and drug company profits at the expense of children's health and unwary parents' pocketbooks. This week at the Surgeon General's Conference on Children's Mental Health, families, professionals and scientists gathered to discuss issues focusing on treatment, diagnosis and misdiagnosis.

165. Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Information about attentiondeficit/Hyperactivity disorder. http://www.geocities.com/attentiondeficithyperactivitylve/

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder This disorder is characterized lack of attention, working on impuse and hyperactivity. The symptioms are often present all the time, but only really noticed when the person is in a changing environment like a elementary school . It is then that it is apparent that the person has difficulty paying attention to details and is easily distracted by other things that are happening at the same time. They find it hard to complete school work and put off any thing that requires thinking: This makes them prone to careless mistakes. They are totally disorganized and always loose things. Many of these symptoms occur from time to time in normal children. However, in children with ADHD they occur very frequently and in several settings, at home and at school, or when visiting with friends, and they interfere with the child's functioning. Children suffering from ADHD may perform poorly at school; they may be unpopular with their peers, if other children perceive them as being unusual or a nuisance; and their behavior can present significant challenges for parents, leading some to be overly harsh. Inattention tends to persist through childhood and adolescence into adulthood, while the symptoms of motor hyperactivity and impulsivity tend to diminish with age. Many children with ADHD develop learning difficulties that may not improve with treatment (Mannuzza et al., 1993). Hyperactive behavior is often associated with the development of other disruptive disorders, particularly conduct and oppositional-defiant disorder. The reason for the relationship is not known. Some believe that the impulsivity and heedlessness associated with ADHD interfere with social learning or with close social bonds with parents in a way that predisposes to the development of behavior disorders (Barkley, 1998).

[Skip Introduction and jump to Quick Index of the Diagnoses and Theories of ADHD ] Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is usually first diagnosed in children and adolescents. It is characterized by inappropriate degrees of inattention, impulsivity and/or hyperactivity. Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder are typically: impulsive forgetful restless to the point of disruption prone to fail unable to follow through on tasks unpredictable moody These characteristics appear in early childhood, are relatively chronic in nature, and are not due to other physical, mental or emotional causes. From time to time, all children will be inattentive, impulsive and/or exhibit high activity levels. However, for children with ADHD, the persistence, pattern, and frequency of this behavior is much greater. These behaviors are the rule, not the exception. Performance variability is also common among children with ADHD. For instance, it is difficult for teachers to understand why a child can remember homework assignments on Monday and Tuesday but forget them on Wednesday.

View : Previous Home RSS Archives ... Next N.A.D.D. I just finished reading Guns of the South (tip of the hat to JayBees for the recommendation ). The gist of the book is straight forward, yet odd... what if, during the Civil War, the South became equipped with a lot of AK-47s. Long story short, they would have won. Harry Turtledove chose to not focus on time travel or other delectable sci-fi tidbits; he spends the time on "YAY! The South Won! So, uh, what are you going to do about that whole slavery thing?" While I'm certain Civil War enthusiasts would enjoy this book, it is not geared for someone with my particular disability Nerd Attention Deficiency Disorder... or NADD. This innocuous condition reared it's head during Guns when it became clear the book was a tome dedicated to the exploration of lifestyles during an alternative post-Civil War period. Zzzzzzzzzzz. Now, Guns was a fine read, but, more than once, I was flipping through the pages wondering, "Ok, HOW long is this chapter?" When I neared the end of the book and it became clear that some time traveler from the future wasn't going to appear and, using some whizbang futuristic device, join the North and South together, well, I was disappointed. Sure, I'm happy that President Lee learned his lesson and started to abolish slavery on his own, but, please, no lasers guns? Sheesh. Folks, I'm a nerd.
