There is a category of hyperactivity and inattention that is not a transient growth spurt; they are a condition that persists into adolescence and adulthood. Attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder, also known as ADHD, is primarily characterized by marked inattention and short attention spans that are inconsistent with developmental levels, hyperactivity and impulsivity. Children with hyperactivity disorder usually act rashly and are prone to accidents. These children often run instead of walk, whether at school or at home, they make small movements or are often distracted, lose things, often lose pencils and erasers, and forget homework assignments. Although they have normal intelligence, they often encounter difficulties in learning, are emotionally unstable, easily overexcited, cry and scream, and lose their temper easily. Although symptoms of ADHD such as inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity are present in varying degrees in most children. However, when these symptoms are evident, persistent and widespread, parents need to seek professional assistance for early detection intervention and treatment. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder can be further divided into three types: attention deficit dominant, hyperactive-impulsive dominant, and mixed. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is not just a classroom disorder; it can be detrimental to a child’s family relationships, peer interactions, and academic performance. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder can be a lifelong disorder and careful diagnosis and treatment is important. Although individuals with ADHD can grow into successful individuals, without early identification and appropriate treatment, ADHD often has serious consequences, including academic failure, depression, substance abuse, delinquency, and unemployment. Common misconceptions about ADHD: 1. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is not a disorder Many people believe that it is in the nature of children to be active and that they will be fine when they grow up. A large number of studies have confirmed that ADHD is a serious disorder with real consequences that affects a child’s daily life, mood, school and work functions. Children with ADHD often enter adolescence without attending school, failing to get into college, having fewer friends, and exhibiting more anti-social behavior. 2, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder only in childhood hyperactivity may improve as children grow older, but inattention, learning failure, peer rejection phenomenon is often more pronounced in adolescence and adulthood. ADHD is a lifelong disorder that requires appropriate diagnosis and treatment. 3. Inappropriate education leads to attention deficits ADHD educational approaches such as blaming, negative demands and poor management can exacerbate ADHD symptoms and increase comorbid symptoms such as conduct disorder, but do not lead to ADHD. Although the etiology of hyperactive attention deficit disorders has not been conclusively established, numerous studies point to a strong neurobiochemical basis for ADHD. Genetics, low birth weight, maternal smoking during pregnancy and other prenatal problems may lead to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. 4, lead poisoning and zinc deficiency can lead to ADHD In the past, lead poisoning and food additives may be the cause of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and recently it has been proposed that zinc deficiency and eating more sugar may be related to its development, but there is a lack of definitive evidence.
