Patient's question:
How to treat ADHD in children? My child is 5 years old, overly excited and active. The doctor said it's ADHD, but I don't want to take him for treatment yet. I was wondering if there are any dietary solutions? How to treat ADHD in children?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is recommended that children learn how to solve problems, anticipate the consequences of their behavior, inhibit impulses, determine whether their behavior is appropriate, and choose appropriate behaviors for psychological therapy. Parents need to provide a supportive environment, allowing parents to learn skills for solving family problems, learn to establish clear reward and punishment agreements with their children, effectively avoid conflicts and disputes with their children, and master the correct use of positive reinforcement methods to encourage children to exhibit good behavior. Punitive measures should be used to eliminate children's bad behavior. Medication is important for children with ADHD. Directly strengthening guidance on educational methods, such as enhancing concentration, training regular living habits, and fostering children's self-esteem and confidence, should not be overlooked. Excessive energy should be channeled appropriately.
