ADHD

Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit with Hyperactivity are often over and under diagnosed. Studies show that 89% of Bipolar children will test false positive for ADHD on the ADHD test. A comprehensive family history is most significant in differential diagnosis. Other issues need to be ruled out such as; Lyme’s disease, learning disabilities, Anxiety Disorders, Aspergers, etc...

Once diagnosed, a variety of treatment modalities can be instituted. Drew Alikakos and his team are effective at this treatment. Often depression develops without a person’s knowledge, due to the cumulative effect of being yelled at etc...

ADHD is never a simple process. Efforts will be made to educate the family of all the issues that could arise.
