It’s normal for children to occasionally forget their homework, daydream during class, act without thinking, or get fidgety at the dinner table. But inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity are also signs of attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADD/ADHD).
ADHD can lead to problems at home and school, and affect your child’s ability to learn and get along with others. It’s important for you to be able to spot the signs and symptoms, and get help if you see them in your child. The signs and symptoms of ADHD typically appear before the age of seven. However, it can be difficult to distinguish between attention deficit disorder and normal “kid behavior.”
There are three types of ADHD- inattentive, hyperactive-impulsive, and combined. Inattentive type of ADHD has signs that include inability to pay attention to details or a tendency to make careless errors in schoolwork or other activities. Difficulty with sustained attention in tasks or play activities, apparent listening problems, difficulty following instructions, problems with organization, avoidance or dislike of tasks that require mental effort tendency to lose things like toys, notebooks, or homework, distractibility, forgetfulness in daily activities,
Hyperactive-impulsive type of ADHD has signs that include fidgeting or squirming, difficulty remaining seated, excessive running or climbing, difficulty playing quietly, always seeming to be ‘on the go’, excessive talking, blurting out answers before hearing the full question, difficulty waiting for a turn or in line or problems with interrupting or intruding.
A combined type of ADHD, which involves a combination of the other two types is the most common.
If you spot just a few signs, or the symptoms appear only in some situations, it’s probably not ADHD. On the other hand, if your child shows a number of ADHD signs and symptoms that are present across all situations at home, at school, and at play, it’s time to take a closer look.
With medication and behavioural interventions, children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) could better maintain attention and self-control by normalising activity in the same brain systems, according to a study. Because there’s no test that can determine the presence of ADHD, a diagnosis depends on a complete evaluation.
Homeopathy offers natural, effective remedies for children suffering from ADHD. Rather than suppressing the symptoms of restlessness, difficulty in focusing, and lack of behavioral control, Homeopathy gets to the root cause of the problem and works to bring the system into a state of balance.
