Signs, Symptoms, and Treatment of ADHD in Children

Dr. Dehra Harris, a pediatric psychiatrist with Washington University at St. Louis Children’s Hospital discusses the signs and symptoms in ADHD in children.

Parents often ask me, “Is ADHD overdiagnosed?” That’s a tough question to answer. Many factors affect a child’s attention, making ADHD a complicated diagnosis. We follow standards and strict procedures to assess symptoms of ADHD and accurately diagnose the condition. If you see signs your child Is struggling in school or other aspects of life because of attention, talk to a trusted physician.

When you talk to your pediatrician, it is likely they will recommend involving the school and obtaining classroom assessments. Historically, ADHD has been more commonly diagnosed in boys, largely because boys often present disruptive behaviors that are easy to identify in the classroom. The inattentive type of ADHD is harder to identify in both boys and girls. In these circumstances, the child is more of a daydreamer who is missing concepts in the classroom because he or she is focused on something else.

Many parents are conflicted about whether or not to give their child medication to treat ADHD. Medication is a very personal decision, and there are a few natural remedies you can try before pursuing other options. These include:
– Changing diet by avoiding food dyes and preservatives
– Addressing sleep issues

While natural remedies for children with ADHD can help, they do not always work. When deciding whether to try ADHD medications, remember: these medicines have been used for over 50 years. When used correctly, they are very safe and effective.

If you suspect your child is displaying symptoms of ADHD, talk to your pediatrician. If you have additional concerns, they can help you decide when it’s time to connect with a specialist who works with more complicated cases.

Anxiety... it is something I am far too familiar with. My entire life, up to my 40s ended in debilitating anxiety.

I was worried about my reputation, worried about pleasing others, and worried about how I would look on the other side. I was also worried about whether I would pass a test, but I was so paralysed that I couldn't even get myself to study. It's all very well.

Now that I'm past two decades of taking Zoloft to help my life get back on track, I also know that anxiety is not a disease. It doesn't make you a failure. This is something that many people don't like to hear. I was one of those people.

This video is about how to rewire your mind, one minute at a time. Most often, I am asked the question HOW, MEL? How do I get rid my anxiety?

This video will help you conquer your anxiety.

I think you already know this. But, in case you don’t, I’m not a therapist. Anxiety has plagued me for many decades. It has been a major concern of mine for many years. These simple techniques have helped me heal myself, and I've taught them to my children and hundreds of thousands of people in live audience. They work. However, you must use them repeatedly. What else works? Prompt treatment. If you have any medical concerns, speak to your doctor. Don't be a hero if your quality of life is being affected by anxiety, worry, or triggers. Seek out a therapist for help. We all need to face our problems and heal our minds.
