When inattention, difficulties staying on task or focusing, and poor impulse control are impacting your son’s ability to function in various areas of life, they may require assessment and treatment for ADHD/ADD. Proper assessment and diagnosis of this mental health disorder can be a critical part of successful long-term outcomes.
ADHD/ADD is marked by frequent, involuntary and frustrating tuning-out or absence of mind; difficulty concentrating unless very interested in something; being bored easily; beginning one thing but going on to another before completing the first; problems keeping order physically in one’s room, on one’s desk, in one’s car; often, difficulty being on time; poor impulse control, manifested in speaking out of turn, interrupting others in conversation, impulse buying, and in a tendency towards addictive behaviors; finally, in many but not all cases—and less in women—physical hyperactivity, difficulties sitting still, and fidgetiness.
