Confessions
of a High School Student with ADHD
Life as a teenager with ADHD is not a fun
journey, because high school takes a lot of work, and ADHD sufferers
are generally swamped with hard work and not enough time to finish it
all. Marty

Suggestions
from a High School Student with ADHD
I
am a high school student with ADHD, the
worst diagnosable disorder for the category "attention deficit". It
almost literally slaps a label upon my forehead that says, "Hyperactive
and Unfocused". Marty

Being
in Control. The Role of Biofeedback in Controlling ADD
ADD is an
attention deficit
disorder not a stress disorder- or is it? A closer look at the
histories
of my patients began to show that up to 75 percent of the ADD children
had other medical problems accompanying the ADD. Could these
associative
medical problems exacerbate the ADD? If so, then relaxation assisted
biofeedback
would be a better treatment than medication.

Attention
Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder
Attention-Deficit
Disorder
(ADD) is really a misnomer and implies a deficit in attention. However,
many children with this disorder focus perfectly fine on subjects of
their
own choosing (such as watching TV and playing Nintendo). The problem
resides
in an inability to regulate (i.e. initiate, maintain, and shift)
attention
to cognitively challenging tasks of someone else's choosing.
