Attention Deficit |

|
Attention Deficit Disorder, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), as a condition that is often characterized by difficulty in concentration, short attention spans and other issues or problems. Sometimes called a phantom condition, ADHD is often a poster child for critics of juvenile overmedication and pediatric misdiagnosis. However, for millions of children and adults, ADHD is a part of their life that is all too real. ADHD occurs when there is a disconnection between components within the brain. Sometimes the disconnection is physical while, at other times, it is chemical in nature. Successful treatment of ADHD begins with a clear understanding by parents and children about exactly what ADHD is...and what it is not. |
