Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD)

Some children, adolescents,  and adults have difficulty concentrating on one subject. Their minds race ahead, jumping from one idea to another. They often are very active and find it difficult to sit still for more than a few minutes at a time. They usually have difficulty learning in traditional educational settings. 

Psychologists usually diagnose children with these symptoms as having Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD). (Formerly called Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD).  Usually they recommend medication for the children.   In the mid 1990's,  one-third of the boys in public schools in Georgia were on medication because they had been diagnosed with this disorder.   This condition is considered by many mental health professionals and physicians to be permanent.   Parents who do not wish to have their children labeled with this diagnosis and forced to take medication must exercise patience and determination when working with school systems on this issue.

Television, video games and diet often play a part in the development of this condition.

We have found NLP and EFT very effective in treating these conditions without medication.

The following link provides some information about this condition:   National Institute of Health  or go to  http://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder-adhd/index.shtml
