How Can ADHD Be Treated?

Hello, I have been having a tough time staying focused in class and preparing for my exams in law school. I talked to a friend who recommended that I check my symptoms online. I took an adhd survey online and it recommended that I speak with a physician. I don t have a lot of time to meet with my PCP right now but I was wondering if for convenience you would be able to help me?

Dear user
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns
I went through your details. Lack of attention, impulsivity, and/or hyperactivity are the bench mark symptoms of ADHD. But even any one of these symptoms are present abnormally it is diagnosed as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. Common causes could be lack of discipline, negative family problems, too much TV or smart phone or social site use or gaming or internet addiction. Treatment depends on the symptoms and needs an expert intervention.

I suggest you to consult a psychiatrist for diagnosis ad treatment. In the meantime, you can engage in physical exercise, relaxation techniques etc as an interim measures.
