ADHD/ADD Symptoms, Medication and Treatment
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is believed to be a neurological disorder usually appearing in adolesence with symptoms such as hyperactivity, lack of impulse control, short term memory lapses, as well as ease of distractibility. While generally regarded to be an incurable neurological disorder there are many treatment options available. This page assumes some degree of familiarity with ADHD, for more information on ADHD Symptoms please see our symptoms page or use our navigation bar on the upper left hand corner of this page.
Much
of the ADHD Treatment carried out today relies on stimulants, most
often prescribed medication, usually used
in conjunction with regular counselling or therapy. Without getting into
the controversy regarding ADHD's classification
as either a disability or simply a behavioral difference let us consider
some of the alternative treatment options available.
