Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a common childhood behavioral disorder. Children with ADHD are hyperactive, impulsive and have difficulty focusing on tasks. ADHD is neurologically based, meaning it involves the functioning of the brain and nervous system. Since ADHD is neurologically based, it unfortunately cannot be cured. However, it can be successfully managed, especially with early and consistent intervention and therapy.
ADHD can’t be cured, but it can be managed.
Contrary to what some may think, not every child could be diagnosed with ADHD; the assessment process focuses on numerous very specific symptoms. ADHD medication is an effective intervention, as it is at least 80% effective in treating the disorder. It should be noted that ADHD medication has not been shown to be addictive and has negligible side effects. Counseling can also be effective in “rewiring” the brain and helping the person with ADHD develop coping skills and strategies.
