About three times as many boys receive an ADHD diagnosis as their female peers. This doesn’t necessarily mean that ADHD in girls is rare, however. Psychologists have historically focused on male forms of the condition, allowing girls and women with ADHD to slide under the radar. This can lead to a lot of problems later on in life, since ADHD disrupts productivity and can cause problems socially in patients of all genders. Here’s a look at how ADHD manifests in girls, along with some of the best ways to treat it. ADHD Symptoms in Girls Girls are much more likely

People who have never experienced an anxiety attack have great difficulty trying to imagine how unpleasant it can be. I’ve even come across people who firmly believe there’s no such thing as an anxiety attack. Regardless of what some people like to believe, there are countless people out there whose lives are almost unbearable because of the frequent anxiety attacks they experience. These attacks which are also often called panic attacks can be so severe that they can cause some people to be too afraid to leave their homes. Of course when this happens, it’s like throwing fuel on a

The classic case of ADHD is someone who has trouble paying attention, acts out, and has a lot of trouble controlling his or her impulses. These people get diagnosed most frequently and receive the lion’s share of treatment. Unfortunately, there are other types of ADHD out there. These get a lot less attention. Many people never even realize that their problems staying on task are related to a disorder. They think of themselves as lazy or bad at working, and don’t get the treatment they require. Their condition is called ADHD-PI, and it’s just as big a problem as conventional

While there will always be some people who question new techniques or procedures in the medical profession, most people working in a clinical environment tend to welcome new breakthroughs. Clinics that specialize in dealing with brain function issues are a perfect example, and especially when it comes to things like an EEG brain mapping. Some clinicians are opposed to the use of these scans, and argue that they are able to achieve similar results without using them. Regardless of what one’s personal opinion might be, brain mapping could be compared to a light being turned on in a dark room.

Countless people have heard mention of ADHD and many will even know a bit about the symptoms, but what does ADHD stand for? ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, and the name reflects on the primary behavioral problems that are evident in people who have this condition. A person with full blown ADHD, also known as ADHD Combined Type, will exhibit signs of inattentiveness and hyperactivity. In most cases, they will also exhibit signs of impulsivity, although this behavioral trait has been dropped from the name. ADHD Statistics Current statistics tend to paint a very bleak picture because the

There has been an assumption made that changes the way we can help autistic children by “Stopping Stimming Naturally”, learn Math or solve-problems or anything that is today considered difficult, if not, impossible. Brain Function Training or Neurofeedback has been able to help 100% of children reduce any overt signs of stemming without ever having to mention “Quite Hands.” The erroneous assumption made is this: “Since we can’t actually see or measure EF (Executive Functioning) in a simple way, let’s use imaginary EF “units” to talk about typical versus impaired executive function.” Today we can measure EF (Executive Functioning) using
