Can a girl with a quiet personality be “ADHD”?

  ”Girls shouldn’t have ADHD, right?” “My child is not active, she just wanders off in class, it can’t be ADHD!” Many parents tend to think that ADHD is a symptom of hyperactivity, inability to be quiet and other active symptoms. In fact, experts say that some children who are not active but have difficulty concentrating may also be ADHD, especially girls.  Girls also suffer from hyperactivity on the third grade Yi is very worrying for parents, teachers often complain to his parents, the class in class, but he slid down from his seat, climbing to the side of the podium; class naptime, he has been talking non-stop, noisy other students can not sleep; do homework at home, he is always a moment to drink water, a moment to go to the toilet, a moment to play something, an hour of homework often 2 to 3 The one-hour homework is often not finished in two to three hours. Professor Qi Yuanli pointed out that many children with ADHD have the above-mentioned problems, on the one hand, they are active, on the other hand, they have difficulty concentrating, which is a mixed type in ADHD. It is said that: attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, commonly known as ADHD, is divided into three types, hyperactive impulsive type, attention deficit type and mixed type, the most common is the mixed type; the most easily ignored is the attention deficit type, especially those girls who are not “hyperactive”.  The most common type of ADHD in girls is the simple attention deficit type of “hyperactivity disorder”, where the child does not move much, or even seems quiet, but has problems with attention span. These children are often distracted and dazed in class, unable to concentrate when doing homework, often procrastinating, and even needing their parents to accompany them to complete their homework. With the increase in school, these children’s academic performance will gradually decline, lack of planning, can not handle interpersonal relationships flexibly, and slowly become introverted, withdrawn and withdrawn.  Chi Yuanli points out that if a child’s ADHD is not treated in time, it will affect his or her final education and social relationships, and even about 1/3 of children with ADHD will have some of their symptoms persist into adulthood, affecting their social interactions.
