Chapter One
In what ways does ADD differ from ADHD?
A lot of people get Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) wrong because it is a very complicated disease. That’s where it starts physiologically, but it can lead to a lot of different problems. Besides that, what makes ADHD different from ADD? Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder, which is what ADHD stands for, is characterised by obvious hyperactivity and impulsivity. If someone is looking with intent, they can see these signs. A lack of focus is one of the main signs of Attention Deficit Disorder, or ADD. There are many other issues that can happen along with both of these types of ADHD, but these are the main ones that make them different.
Recently, the typical image of a child with Attention Deficit Disorder has been one who is hyperactive and drives his parents and teachers crazy. Of the two kinds, ADHD is definitely easier to spot because it stands out so much more than ADD. Hyperactivity stands out because it causes more problems and disruptions in the classroom. It will be noticed and dealt with more quickly. Sad to say, the effects of ADD can be just as bad even if it is not as obvious.
For someone with neglectful attention deficit disorder (ADD), they will seem disorganised and out of it. People who are victims of this type often look out the window during class and don’t seem to be there at all. Some people with this type of ADD don’t even know they have it for years because it is so hard to diagnose. But the results of a thought that wanders can be just as bad.
People thought for a long time that boys were the only ones with ADHD. Now, though, this lie has been exposed. It is now known that girls and boys can both have attention deficit disorder, and a lot of them don’t get better until they are middle-aged. Girls are more likely than boys to have the inattentive form of ADD, and this condition is often mistakenly thought to be sadness. People with inattentive ADD don’t usually cause problems or disturbances in their surroundings, so many of them suffer in silence for years before they figure out what’s wrong.
Early identification is very important for both ADHD and ADD. Problems with school are the most obvious sign, but some people don’t really have any trouble getting their work done. Keep an eye on your kids, not just in school, but in general and in their mental health as well. Are they having trouble with other kids? Do they look like they have trouble getting things in order or are they very disorganised? Do they have trouble staying still for a while? Are they very quiet or very talkative? All of these signs don’t necessarily mean that someone has ADD or ADHD, but they do mean that they should get help from a therapist or counsellor.
The mental health of your child is just as important as their physical health and how well they do in school. Check it out if you think something is wrong. Not getting identified with ADD for years can lead to a lot of other problems that can be hard to get rid of and can be stopped.
Chapter Two
ADD: The Different Ways It Shows Up In Kids
Kids with Attention Deficit Disorder can show up in a number of different ways. It’s not hard to find a child with ADD who is always running around. This group is mostly made up of boys. But there are also kinds of ADD that aren’t found because their effects on kids aren’t seen as clearly. Most of the time, this happens to girls.
A lot of girls are known as “tomboys.” People who are like this often have some of the most important signs of ADD, like being more active but not as careless as the boys. So, teachers and parents quickly assume that the child doesn’t care about school and isn’t very organised. However, the potential of ADD is rarely thought about.
Along with the “tomboy” types, the “chatty” girls may also have ADD but not be aware of it. People with this trait are often described as socially outgoing because they are both too active and not paying attention. These girls would rather talk than do anything hard, and they won’t stop talking even if you tell them to. Because they have ADD, they can’t tell complete stories and will get off track.
ADD could also be present in people who are known to “daydream.” In nature, they are very quiet and don’t do anything to stand out. But, unlike the “chatty” girls, they are too focused on themselves and not paying attention in class, which is another sign of ADD. When they have school projects, they might feel anxious and depressed, but they can’t finish them because they can’t keep their mind off of them. This isn’t usually found because the child is thought to be lazy, and parents and teachers don’t notice the problem in time.
A lot of girls with ADD have very high IQs and could be called “gifted.” This is very interesting. When a kid has a high IQ, they don’t have any trouble with their schoolwork, but as adults, their lack of skills shows. Remember that ADD is not the same as a learning problem, and people who have it do not always do badly in school. Up until high school, they may be doing pretty well, but as the stress and work load increases, signs may become more obvious.
Attention Deficit Disorder can do a lot of damage to a person if they are not identified. Kids will be called disorganised, dumb, and lazy, but they might really be ADD suffers who don’t show it. These people will have very low self-esteem and think that their troubles make them quit or be stupid. The issue needs to be found and fixed right away, before it’s too late and long-lasting damage is done.
