What is ADHD?

It is a brain-based biological disorder. Children with ADHD found out to have low levels of dopamine and brain imaging studies PET scanners show that children with ADHD have lower brain metabolism in the areas of the brain that control attention, movement, and social judgment. It can affect a child’s success at school, as well as their relationships. It is a behavior disorder and symptoms of ADHD are almost always apparent by the age of 7 and may be present in very young preschoolers.

A child with ADHD may show the signs of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity in specific ways.

Children with ADHD are in constant motion. They may try to get up and run around, fidget, or squirm in their chair when forced to sit. They do not listen and have trouble playing quietly. They often talk excessively and even interrupt or intrude on others. They don't finish their tasks and are easily distracted. Children with ADHD may have poor organizational and studying skills for their age, they may be forgetful. Avoiding tasks that need extended mental effort. Children with ADHD lack patience and may have trouble waiting for their turn. They may even have emotional turmoil.

It may get difficult to distinguish between ADHD and normal "kid behavior" but you need to observe closely. If you find only a few signs or the symptoms appear only in some or rare situations, it may not be ADHD. And if the symptoms appear in all situations and your child shows a number of ADHD signs that is present in all situations and place, it is high time that you look it closely and take help from psychologist or mind trainer.
