Question: I'm just curious I guess.
Answers: I'm just curious I guess.
The main features are...
1. An inability to focus
2. Occurs in one or more settings (i.e., home and school)
3. Began before 7 years old
4. Not all kids are hyperactive.
Good luck.
I am a personal sufferer of this so I can help you out with this and also teach children that have it.
Sometimes people might think you are on something because you 'spiral' in a sense. The hyperactivity makes you go over the edge basically on the hyper level. Poor attention or incorrectly prioritizing can also be a symptom. Symptoms vary by case and level of severity.
Some others are (based on things I've read and personally know from my doctor and the American Psychiatric Association):
Inattention (6 or more for more then 6 months)
careless (or avoidable) mistakes in anything, particularly schoolwork or work
trouble paying attention, staying on task, sticking with a project or one thing, etc.
doesn't listen when spoken to directly or not able to concentrate
trouble with organization
fails to finish or does not listen to directions
loses things or misplaces things on a consistent basis
often forgetful
Hyperactivity (6 or more for 6 months)
fidgeting constantly
restless
runs about or gets up when inappropriate
talks excessively
seems to constantly be run by some unknown force
has trouble relaxing or doing leisurely activity
always has to be going, going, going and never a down moment
interrupts others
blurts out answers
doesn't wait turn
social impairment
Since this disease is in the spotlight so much now there are many courses of actions but no real 'cures'.
Hope this helps!
