Knowing the difference and knowing the different types of ADD symptoms can help ensure that you or your kid gets the right therapy.
Different Warning Signs
Here are the three different categories for ADHD Symptoms:
* Lack of concentration
* Wired
On the other hand, ADD only causes the lack of concentration symptoms.
Treating a patient for ADHD when they have ADD is overmedicating and could lead to further issues. In many cases, the stories about Ritalin and other ADHD treatment medications that cause a child to be zombie-like are probably linked directly to medicating children with only ADD with the wrong medication or wrong doses, thinking that they have ADHD.
Inattention Symptoms
With ADD the only type of warning signs that will be showed are inattentiveness symptoms, and they are include:
* No attention to details
* Insensitive mistakes
* Easily unfocused
* Cannot take a note
* Trouble following directions
* Leaving tasks unfinished
* Unorganized
* Neglectful
Diagnosing ADD can help a child get a grasp on things and start to be able to focus. A child that is treated for ADD will begin to do better in school and have better behavior overall.
In many occasion, many parents always believe that their kids could not be ADD since they can play for many hours doing many activities they like without being sidetracked.
In fact that a child with ADD can focus when they really enjoy what they are doing since it does not require them to put any effort into paying attention as well as being focused like another activities they do not like to do.
ADD will worsen, as the child gets older or at least continue to cause problems with school and other activities. By this time, though, it has progressed into something that is probably causing all around issues in the child’s life.
It is actually much better to recognized ADD in younger children so that the children can get used to taking medicine as well as learn how to face ADD symptoms.
