ADHD Insight

A child with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) has a unique brain. A child with ADHD can have difficulty focusing in school, may be disorganized, or get poor grades. But, outside of the classroom, they are imaginative, spontaneous, and full of positive energy. Nawras Shukair MD said, “Think of it as a child with ADHD who has a racing car for their brain and the brakes on a bicycle.” “So their brain can’t do what they need to and their ability regulate it,” Dr. Shukair explains in this episode of Health Watch.

In a classroom, a child with ADHD may have trouble focusing, be disorganized or receive poor grades; but outside the classroom, the same child is imaginative, spontaneous and full of positive energy. “Think about it as a child who has a racing car for a brain with the brakes of a bicycle,” explained Nawras Shukair, MD. “So there’s a mismatch between what their brain is able to do and their ability to regulate it.” In this episode of Health Watch, Dr. Shukair shares the strength-based approach to viewing and managing ADHD symptoms.
