Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

Attention Deficit Disorder or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is an increasingly common childhood disorder.  It can manifest itself in childhood and can even continue throughout adolescence and on into adulthood. Symptoms include difficulty staying focused and paying attention, difficulty controlling behavior, and hyperactivity.
 
Treatments can relieve many of the disorder's symptoms, but there is currently no cure. With treatment, most people can lead productive lives.
