AD/HD.

We have not addressed this topic for a bit. AD/HD is well known to adults…or is it? Every year we learn more and more about this malady. Our overall understanding of AD/HD has evolved over the years.

For example, over time we have learned that attention deficit disorder may be caused by -

1. A decreased level of activity in certain parts of the brain.

2. It just may “run in the family”.

3. In some cases, it can be brought on by a head injury.

4. In rare cases it can be exacerbated by toxins in the environment.

It’s Okay…They’ll Outgrow it.

It was once thought that children simply outgrow ADHD as they age and mature.  As we now know, although ADHD begins in childhood, troubling symptoms can continue into adolescence and beyond throughout the life of your offspring.  While some youngsters may seem to outgrow the disorder, in most cases kids with ADHD grow up to be adults with ADHD.

I have discovered through decades of experience that although ADHD is chronic in its very nature, symptoms may certainly present themselves in differing ways as a person moves through life’s stages.  One thing seems certain, kids and teens whose ADHD has been addressed over the years will have a range of resources from which to draw.
