Many people do not want their children medicated, but severe cases may require medication to assist in the management of some of the symptoms. This free video on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder explains the importance of ADHD children working with licensed mental health counselors and mental health professionals.
New research finds ADHD patients who take amphetamine medications like Adderall appeared to have a higher risk of developing psychosis than those who take methylphenidate drugs such as Ritalin. CBSN’s chief medical correspondent Dr. Jon LaPook joins CBS News.
In this video I highlight the different ways ADHD symptoms tend to express themselves in girls. For a better sense of ADHD in general check out "How to Know if You Have ADHD:" />
To clarify: I am not suggesting that there is a "girl" or a "boy" form of ADHD. Any gender can have the hyperactivity component, and any gender can be primarily inattentive. In this video I talk about what is more common; however, it's important that we learn to recognize both forms in all genders.

College student Chris Lozano seems calm on the outside. On the inside, however, he is "like a volcano." He struggles to sleep, sit still, or stop his mind wandering. His only way to get relief is to go to the gym, or to ride motorcycles. Learn how Chris was diagnosed with ADHD at 26, and why he returned to college to pursue a career in helping others like him.
This episode also features Chris sharing his experiences with substance abuse, and other risky behavior.
