Do you know the diagnosis, characteristics, and symptoms of ADHD?

 

These days, called the Age of Diversity, some people still find it difficult to live due to their individuality as the trend of respecting individuality spreads. People with ADHD, especially those who have been hearing a lot recently, may be representatives.Now I'm going to talk about ADHD. If you're worried about ADHD or if you're worried about it, please watch until the end.

Features of ADHD

What kind of disease is ADHD?

ADHD, also called attention deficit and hyperactivity, is a developmental disorder that occurs in 3% to 7% of children. Recently, more and more people are aware that they are ADHD due to criticism from their surroundings and family members after becoming adults. Major symptoms include distraction (lack of attention) or restless (multiple) and diagnosis by psychiatry and neurology is recommended because the line that can diagnose itself is ambiguous.

Please tell me the frequency of occurrence or the ratio of men and women.

ADHD is known to occur in 5% of children worldwide, and 60% of them persist into adulthood. The prevalence rate is high for men and the ratio of men and women is 2:1 to 10:1. However, when you become an adult, the gender gap disappears a lot from 1:1 to 2:1.

Is the cause of ADHD identified?

The cause of ADHD is not yet known. However, it is currently known that it is caused by biological factors, and the causal relationship with the family environment such as discipline and how to raise it is not recognized. Discipline or raising doesn't affect you. Compared to other families, there are many parents who are anxious about the way they discipline and raise their children who are calm and attentive.

However, many doctors believe that because it is known as a disorder caused by biological factors, discipline or how to raise it does not depend on whether it becomes ADHD.Meanwhile, the importance of how to deal with children with ADHD is also being pointed out. ADHD was considered a disease that disappeared with growth, but ADHD is recognized as a chronic disease these days, when people often realize that they are ADHD as adults.

ADHD can become chronic if you fall into loss of confidence or mental instability, and what is important to prevent it is support from your parents and others.Of course, the outbreak itself has nothing to do with discipline or how to raise it, but whether it becomes chronic after that may depend on the surrounding environment, including parents.

I heard that some people realize ADHD after they become adults.

The way ADHD symptoms appear in adults and children is different. Calmness is noticeable when you are young, but when you become an adult, symptoms that interfere with your social life, such as being alerted to careless mistakes at work or not being able to manage your work, are noticeable. More and more people are realizing through self-checking in this perception of 'different from others'.

Please tell me the symptoms you can see in ADHD.

ADHD symptoms are divided into three main categories:

• the multiple provinces
• impulsive nature
• lack of attention

First of all, polysomnography refers to a state of restlessness and moves the body meaninglessly without sitting still and move your body meaninglessly.Impulsivity, which has a similar echo of polydongsung and words, cannot be said to be "thinking and moving," and takes actions such as blocking the other person's words or failing to follow the order that prioritize their impulses in the scene. Many people find it difficult to judge that this is the only symptom because such impulsive behavior is often seen in children other than ADHD.And a lack of caution can be a lot of lost and found, or a frequent occurrence of careless mistakes.It seems that most people who realize ADHD after they become adults are often attributed to a lack of attention during these tasks.

How often do you learn about ADHD?

ADHD in childhood is mainly due to the perception of surrounding humans, including parents. However, if you go out to society as an adult, cooperation with your surroundings is inevitable.In cooperation with others, one's lack of attention or impulsiveness begins to stand out, such as thinking about other things or not controlling emotions during work, and one often becomes aware of ADHD due to anxiety about oneself or criticism from others. On the contrary, ADHD is a disease that is difficult to detect if the relationship with the surroundings is thin.

How is ADHD diagnosed?

ADHD diagnostic criteria include:

• There is a lack of attention, such as a large number of lost and found items
• I can see the dynamic of not being able to stand still for a certain period of time
• I can't wait for my turn. I can see the urge
• The above three are more pronounced than those of their peers or close age groups
• Some of the three are shown when they are under 12 years of age
• Two or more of the environments surrounding you, school or work, are experiencing disabilities
• be interfering with one's relationship and work

The above symptoms are not caused by mental illness, etc. In addition to these professional diagnosis results, you can get clearer diagnosis results if you are examined with self-check results.

I want to know how to treat ADHD.

Three methods of ADHD treatment are known to be useful:

• environmental intervention
• intervention in action
• medication

Environmental intervention is a way to prevent people from having a negative image of themselves by creating an environment that is easy for them to focus on or adjusting time allocation of time.It is not about focusing on yourself so that you can focus on your surroundings, but about your surroundings so that you can focus.Behavioral intervention aims to reward people with praise and increase desirable behavior when they do not act differently from their surroundings.Around this time, an educational class for parents called "Pairing Training" has been recognized.Behavioral interventions are ways to change the way people around you treat them.

Finally, drug therapy is known as a drug that suppresses symptoms such as polyphosphate or atomoxetin and irrigation.Methyl penny updates are covered by insurance, but they are only handled by some doctors or professional medical institutions, so they require examination. However, atomoxetin and vitrification are known to be medicines that can be used by all doctors.

The environment is important as well as medication.

In ADHD, it is not uncommon for people to act differently from the people around them, make mistakes, or add to their self-loathing or inferiority complex about their surroundings. Such emotions have a very bad effect on ADHD prognosis, so it is effective to create an environment so that you do not have negative emotions.Since not only the environment but also the way humans around you are treated is important, if you do not scold failures caused by ADHD symptoms and repeat compliments when you do good things, you will take good actions. Treatment that does not require significant change is useful for ADHD.

How can I apply for people around me?

As mentioned above, you should not act to blame ADHD symptoms.Don't compare with others and repeat compliments if your behavior shows improvement or growth.If you are exposed to it as if you are suppressing it, the symptoms of ADHD will not improve, and in the worst case, it may worsen. If you have support around you to treat your doctor or mood with respect, you can expect the effectiveness of ADHD treatment.

ADHD is still not understood, and ADHD patients who have become adults without healing may become isolated from society. The difference from mental illness is also ambiguous and difficult to understand, so there will be many people who rarely notice it even when they become adults.For the treatment or enlightenment of ADHD, communication and support with surrounding humans are important. Treatment methods and medicines are also established, so if you feel a little bit of deviation from your surroundings, it is recommended that you consult with a doctor from now on.

Hugging parents and children Many people are worried about ADHD, one of the developmental disorders that many people know, and there are many examples that they realize only after greeting adults. Many people realize that they are ADHD or suffer from mental illness such as depression because of the mobility of ADHD or the boring words around them about their failure or failure at work due to distractions. These days, your understanding of ADHD is getting deeper than before, so you can do self-checking without any burden before going to a medical institution. If you are anxious that "it may be different from the surroundings," don't leave it as it is, but let's review medical institution counseling or treatment.
