Patient's question:
How should ADHD be treated best? Recently, I have been diagnosed with ADHD, and my body feels very uncomfortable. Moreover, now every time I attend class, I have a very difficult time concentrating my energy. Additionally, I often squint and feel very uncomfortable, not knowing what to do. How should ADHD be treated best?Doctor's answer:
Hello, ADHD is the abbreviation for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). ADHD, also known as Minimal Brain Dysfunction Syndrome, is a relatively common psychological disorder in children. Children with ADHD have normal or near-normal intelligence, excessive activity (in some cases, there may be no hyperactivity), difficulty concentrating, emotional instability, impulsivity, and stubbornness, often accompanied by varying degrees of learning difficulties. ADHD is not a temporary phenomenon; it can have multiple negative impacts on children, so parents should take them for treatment. Treatment involves collaboration between families and schools to educate the child, along with appropriate medication, neither of which should be neglected. A child's behavior is closely related to their family and social environment, and adverse family environments can serve as a model and reinforce negative behaviors in children.
