ADHD
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects the ability to pay attention, control impulses, and/or sit still. It is a common condition that affects children and adults, and can be diagnosed in individuals of all ages. ADHD is characterized by symptoms such as difficulty paying attention, forgetfulness, impulsiveness, hyperactivity, restlessness, fidgeting, and inability to follow through with tasks. The symptoms typically start in childhood and persist into adulthood in those with a persistent condition. The exact cause of ADHD is not known, but research has identified genetic and environmental factors that may contribute. Genetics can be a contributing factor, with certain families having a higher likelihood of having a child with ADHD. Environmental factors, such as exposure to toxins or radiation, may also play a role. Today, ADHD is diagnosed and treated using a combination of medications, behavioral therapy, and lifestyle changes. The most common medications used to treat ADHD are stimulants, such as Ritalin and Adderall, which help to increase the levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, such as dopamine and norepinephrine, which are involved in attention and impulse control. In conclusion, ADHD is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder that can significantly impact an individual's daily life. However, with proper diagnosis and treatment, it is possible to manage symptoms and lead a fulfilling life.
