If you have a child who struggles with attention, you are not alone. ADHD is a common condition that affects up to 5 percent of children. ADHD is a type of disorder that affects the way a person manages their attention. This can make it difficult to focus and pay attention, and it can make it hard to learn and concentrate. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to treatment for ADHD, but there are a variety of treatments that can help. Some children may need medication to improve their attention span. Other children may need help with specific skills, like staying on task, paying attention in class, or focusing on a task for a long period of time. If you think your child may have ADHD, it is important to talk to your doctor. There is no single test that can identify ADHD, and there is no single cure for ADHD. However, with the help of a doctor, your child can have a better life with an improved attention span. Many people believe that ADHD is a problem that only affects children, but this is not always the case. ADHD can also be a problem in adults, and it's not just a problem with focus and concentration. ADHD can also be a problem with impulse control and a lack of patience. This means that people with ADHD can be very difficult to work with and can often find it difficult to stay on task.

Rates of diagnosis of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are skyrocketing, throughout America and the rest of the world. U.S. rates of youth diagnosis have increased 40% from just a decade ago. Adults with ADHD are now the fastest-growing segment of the population receiving diagnosis and medication. The disorder is painful and sometimes disabling for individuals and tremendously costly for society; yet, widespread misinformation, skepticism, and unanswered questions have jeopardized effective diagnosis and treatment. Researched and written by Stephen Hinshaw, an international expert on ADHD, and Katherine Ellison, a Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist and author, ADHD: What Everyone Needs to Know® is the go-to book for authoritative, current, accurate, and compelling information about the global ADHD epidemic. This book addresses questions such as: · Is ADHD a genuine medical condition or a means of pathologizing active and exploratory behavior? · Do medications for ADHD serve as needed treatments, or are they attempts at social control, designed to bolster profits of pharmaceutical firms? · Has the ADHD label become a ruse by which parents can game the educational system for accommodations? · How do symptoms and impairments related to ADHD differ between girls and women and boys and men? · Why are ADHD medications often used as performance enhancers by college and high-school students? ADHD: What Everyone Needs to Know® clears the air of the most polarizing and misleading information that abounds, providing straight talk and sound guidelines for educators, policymakers, health professionals, parents, and the general public. It shows the reality of ADHD but does not ignore the forces that have pushed up rates of diagnosis to alarmingly high levels.
