This is usually characterised with signs of symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity. Most kids with ADHD have deficits in some executive functions that is required for planning and accomplishing tasks in a sequential manner. Since the symptoms of ADHD can be the result of anxiety, depression or trauma, it is always advisable to take a professional help for diagnosing your child with ADHD and ruling out the other causes. ADHD is one of the most extensively researched topic in medical literature and researches have shown that a combination of medication and behavioral therapy is the most effective treatment. The first line of treatment is usually medications (stimulants) though Behavior therapies can also be very helpful in teaching children to manage them better, though they alone do not eliminate the core symptoms of ADHD. Star chart method, assigning time limits, checklists, using a planner can be useful. Occupational therapy also plays a very important role in ADHD. Martial arts, Swimming, Tennis, Gymnastics can help children with symtoms of ADHD. Take care.
