Research has
completely changed our conception of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity
Disorder
and expanded our treatment options. In the past this condition was
called “Minimal
Brain Dysfunction” and kids were zombied out on Ritalin to prevent them
from misbehaving. Now we have better answers for these questions: Who
gets ADHD and why? Where do you find ADHD in the brain? What
are the short and long-term outcomes of this condition? What medical and
psychological
treatments are effective for ADHD?
Beth Nyblade, a
Clinical, School and Forensic Psychologist, will discuss the questions above.
She’ll also bring a Macarena tape to see if anyone present at the forum has
ADHD (LOL).
