What is Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Attention Deficit Disorder(ADD)?
To most adults, all children seem a source of boundless energy and limited focus. How can you tell for sure if your child has a problem with attention, concentration, and keeping themselves still?
dults who find themselves moving from job to job, having difficulty with a new job, or struggling with going back to school often find themselves wondering about Attention Disorders. Sometimes, when their children are diagnosed with ADD or ADHD they start to wonder about themselves. When these adults were children, they were often mislabeled as “lazy,” “unmotivated,” “careless,” "daydreamers” or even “stupid.” They were not given the benefit of what we know today.

Jonathan Schmalz
Psychologist, PhD, HSP-P
Many people with ADHD have received and internalized the message that they are lazy or not living up to their potential; it is common for individuals with ADHD to be hard on themselves in an attempt to increase productivity and reliability. Yet, each failure reinforces the message that they are inadequate. Moreover, the nature of ADHD often makes it difficult to organize and soothe difficult thoughts and emotions, leaving one vulnerable to anxiety and depression.

Amazing Grace Psychiatric Services, PLLC
Psychiatric Nurse/Therapist, PMHNP, CNM, PMH-C
ADHD is often diagnosed in childhood because students can be evaluated by their caregivers, teachers and providers. Adults who have never been diagnosed as a child, though, should have psychological testing to confirm the diagnosis before they are treated for ADHD with medication.
