ADD ADHA Test, Symptoms and Its Diagnostic Criteria
Many children suffer from a condition that is referred to as ADD ADHD which means Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder which is the psychiatric disorder. But then the detecting of this condition is not easy, as it occurs in children and they are not able to express the problem that they have. So in many cases, the condition goes undetected. But now with the advancement of the medical facilities, the diagnosis of the condition has become a little convenient. Still, there is no one particular ADD ADHD Test which can be conducted to understand if the child is suffering from it. So in case you guys have a doubt that your child might have this condition it is suggested that you take the child to a doctor. A test of diagnosis for it has to be done by asking parents and the child's teachers about the child's behavior in different places such as school, home, etc. In different children, the symptoms and condition may be different so it is necessary that you talk to the doctor openly. Questions like what are the symptoms, how long has the child shown the symptoms, from when did they start, etc. are common.
