ADHD And Teenagers: Understanding The Signs, Seeking Help And More!

ADHD stands for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. This is a chronic condition that has some very evident tell-a-tale signs and typically begins early in life, only to get worse during teen years. If your child is struggling with academics or has a whole range of behavioral issues, he might be dealing with ADHD. More cases of ADHD are seen in boys than girls. In this post, we are discussing more on symptoms and signs, and how to seek help for teens with ADHD.

Signs at a glance

ADHD can affect adults and children alike, but symptoms are more likely to be evident in childhood. During teen years, the symptoms of ADHD can change, mainly because there are hormonal changes in the body too. Hyperactivity, as well as inattention, are two common signs, but some teens also suffer from what’s called “impulsivity”. If your child doesn’t bring homework to school every day or simply forgets to do his homework and assignments, it could be a reason to be concerned. Some teens are disruptive, while others may tend to lose attention in activities and learning or can be prone to interrupting others. If not checked and treated as required, ADHD could spiral into a major problem with time, often leading to risky behavior and mental issues, such as depression and anxiety.

It is still not known as what exactly causes ADHD in every case, but genetic component is not ruled out. Exposure to selected toxins is also considered to be a trigger, and those who were born premature or had low weight at the time of birth are at a higher risk.

Seeking help

There are many boarding schools that work for teens who are dealing with ADHD. It typically starts with assessments, following which an analysis is done, which helps in developing a plan that will work for the teen. If your child has symptoms of ADHD, do not delay in seeking assistance. The treatment for ADHD has to be personal, and it is always a good idea to consider a boarding school, where your child will get exposure he needs and can also get back to academics in a controlled and safe environment, away from risks.

To find the right boarding school, check their approach to ADHD and how the staff and experts work with every child. You may want to pay a personal visit to discuss everything in detail.
