Children and adults who have difficulty focusing on a particular task or are prone to impulsive and uncontrollable behaviors may be diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This condition is very common in people of all ages, and it can successfully be diagnosed through a series of tests administered by your doctor. ADHD is sometimes paired with other conditions including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder or other diseases. Because of the complex nature of this condition and the fact that symptoms can vary from one patient to the next, it is wise to seek medical help from a doctor who specializes in treating ADHD if you or your child are experiencing related problems that are both frequent and disruptive. Treatments for ADHD vary and may include behavioral therapy, counseling and education, social skills training, and stimulant and non-stimulant medications.
