ADHD 101: What Is ADHD? - Mental Health Awareness - Join BasedShaman as we learn about Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and what living with ADHD is like. Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a brain disorder marked by an ongoing pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that interferes with functioning or development and can present difficulties for parents in dealing with their ADHD children. Today we will be answering the question that many ask: what is ADHD like?

The symptoms of autism spectrum disorders and ADHD overlap. Most kids on the autism spectrum have symptoms of ADHD: difficulty settling down, social awkwardness, the ability to focus only on things that interest them, and impulsivity. ADHD itself, however, is not part of the autism spectrum. Inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity are the key behaviors of ADHD. Some people with ADHD only have problems with one of the behaviors, while others have both inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity. Most children have the combined type of ADHD.

While ADHD kids behavior can present many difficulties, parents have several choices in tacking this situation as there are several forms of ADHD treatment that we will be looking at. These range from ADHD therapy to the different types of ADHD medication. Please let me know which types of ADHD treatment you think are the best choices for families trying to do the best they can for their kids.
