ADHD Parenting - Amanda Campbell
What is ADHD?
MANY PARENTS HAVE DIFFICULTY with ADHD. In a typical grocery store scene, frustrated parents repeatedly call out their children's names and ask them to leave.
Or a situation at school where a child can't sit still and move around all the time. The teacher notes that a child seems to always dream in class - a child who does not focus on an activity long enough to complete it. Or maybe the child is bored with a task that looks like it's just getting started and wants to move on to another task immediately. We all collect brains for this challenging behaviour.
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has many faces and remains one of the most debated and controversial topics in education. There are children, teenagers, and adults who struggle with ADHD every day to lead productive lives with so much heated debate about drugs, diagnostic methods, and treatment options. I am sure many of you as parents will initially spend the night without sleep, worried about your child's strange behaviour. Our worry is in many ways justified because most of us believe that we know the primary signs of ADHD and of course we panic when we face it.
Fear of ADHD, its implications, and its impact on families is only part of it. Sometimes lies the root cause that our actions may be the cause. Sometimes most of us beat ourselves up, believing that we are not strict enough or that we are not disciplined enough, or, conversely, too strict. While these concerns may be pretty normal, ideas are not always rational or plausible. Attention deficit or addiction disorder is most often found in children in elementary school. In some cases, ADD's early symptoms can indicate a more serious psychological situation, such as Depression, bipolar disorder, and brain damage. On the other hand, certain reckless behaviour can sometimes be just an allergic reaction, sensitivity to the environment, nutritional deficiencies, or even too much caffeine. Often, children are misdiagnosed as having attention deficit disorder simply because they behave as expected.
Children generally make reckless movements, have a lot of unnecessary energy, are unable to sit still, and have a short attention span at school. Combined with the fact that most school-age children watch TV and play computer games more than forty hours a week, it is not surprising that many children have the energy to burn.
As we will discuss later, attention deficit disorder analysis should be seen as a beginning, not an end. Too often, when a doctor sees a child restless, and his attention is short, he prescribes drugs for Dexedrine or Ritalin, and that's it. Whether this drug has side effects, is unsafe, and does not cure the situation at all will be answered later. Further control is usually the responsibility of the child's parents. The facts are here to point parents in the right direction. They offer advice on where to look for causes of attention deficit disorder for children. ADHD is an abbreviated form of a condition known as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. It is now recognized as a mental disorder that affects nearly 3-7% of children. It can manifest itself as a combination of symptoms that often affect the quality of life.
For this reason, it is important to identify and treat ADHD symptoms by improving their ability to concentrate and pay attention, even though children do not have adequate control over their mental abilities and, therefore, their behaviour. Apart from children, adults are also affected by this mental disorder, which ADHD might be diagnosed as a child, as nearly 30-70% of ADHD children grow up on their own and need help. From a counsellor to face their daily life. With timely diagnosis and prompt treatment, condition management does not require much assistance as children and adolescents grow. The real challenge lies in early identification to enable timely and accurate treatment. Therefore, adults with ADHD have problems organizing their lives in a structured environment and achieving continued success in their careers and personal lives. However, this can be achieved through time management and proper advice. Therefore, it is important to understand the true nature of ADHD as a mental disorder that requires early, timely, and accurate medical care so that the person diagnosed can live a full life. It is more difficult to diagnose in adults than in children, who are more agitated and unable to sit still for long. You can't concentrate on anything for very long. For adults, this means more difficulty structuring their lives and planning daily activities. They don't feel the importance of paying attention or stopping fidgeting because they are not a problem. It is generally believed that there are three main stages in any normal child's development; The first can be seen in babies / young children. During this phase, children focus and worry about certain objects to exclude everything around them. If your child continues to develop around this point, they may show signs of autism later in life. In the second recognizable phase, which is observed in older children, the child is attracted to several things simultaneously and can no longer concentrate or concentrate on something or action for some time. This is the key to ADD. If a child slows down at this stage, they may develop attention deficit disorder in childhood. The third stage helps children mature to a point where they can calmly focus and voluntarily direct their attention in a particular direction for long periods. They can then change their engagement or actions when and when they have to. So this phase is a critical transitional phase that shapes children to be successful in the classroom and in the real world. But ADD not only makes a child or young adult unable to concentrate, but it also reduces their ability to make decisions. Then they too can become indecisive in their daily life. An example could be that they become confused when they cross the road and return in passing traffic or lose their reason for traveling. On the other end of the spectrum, people with ADD can also focus completely on a specific object or task. Examples are that they can watch the same movie several times without realizing it or read a certain part of a book over and over without reacting or losing focus. In later life, this behaviour can lead to overeating or substance abuse, or other compulsive behaviour. As a result, the person concerned always needs something to do, moves from place to place, or cannot slow down. It is increasingly being diagnosed in young adolescents. It can drive parents crazy and keep them up at night by calming their children and helping them fall asleep.
These children can be difficult to approach, but they can experience many of the events listed above. Although this type of patient experience has led psychologists to conclude that ADD is not a problem naturally occurring in children, they also strongly reject any relationship with the parent that causes the disorder. There is no direct reason for what parents do and the likelihood that a child will develop ADD or ADHD. If your child primarily has ADD, stop beating yourself up in the first place.
ADHD takes many forms and takes slightly different forms. There are already more than five documented and documented forms of ADHD. And although sometimes questioned, it is generally accepted that this is a disease passed on through genes. Therefore, this disease often manifests as disorders of the nervous system.
The DSM-IV Diagnostic Manual states that all types, forms, or types of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder should be grouped under ADHD.
This basic, core list is then broken down into three types of ADHD:
- ADHD combined type
- Type impulsive-hyperactive or
- No-load Q type ADHD.
Some time ago, the phrase attention deficit disorder with
or without
hyperactivity was widely used. There can be many combinations, so different children will have different symptoms. In general, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder affects many parts of the brain, often more than four unique parts of the brain.
Because of this, there are many unique profiles
and styles
of youth, so there is no standard behaviour.
There are 4 main areas:
1) Inability to participate.
2) Difficulty controlling impulse
3) Problems related to motor anxiety and/or hyperactivity
4) Increasing tendency of boredom - a condition that has not yet officially
started in the diagnostic manual
Knowing what to look for will help you observe this
