How can ADHD be treated?
human
I found your email online. My whole life I ve been struggling with attention issues. It has caused me to lost jobs in the pass. I have issues when it comes to details. I often forget or procrastinate tasks. My focus has been terrible. I often find myself wanting to stand up for no reason or leave a room just to leave it. I always felt this was normal until a family member pointed this out to me. I ve never tried medications for ADHD or ADD but I ve been reading that medicines like adderal help with this issue. I m open to try this and get help but only if it is my last resort. I want to feel normal when faced with tasks. -Louise

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. As per the information provided by you you are suffering from attention deficit problem. Problem in attention and focus generally caused by chronic stress, insomnia, chronic physical illnesses. ADHD that is attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is generally seen in children. It is very rare in adults and as you have mentioned tablet Adderal is addictive at times, so it's better to avoid taking that drug morning walk, regular exercise, scheduling your day, having a proper sleep, taking a proper diet might solve your problem to a little extent.if you are not still satisfied consult a psychologist who teaches you memory techniques so that your attention span is increased. Medication should be a last resort under guidance of psychiatrist. Hope I answered your query.
