      ABOUT THE AUTHOR

      Jason Newman grew up in a household that had individuals suffering

      from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and as such developed a keen interest from an early age in ADHD/ADD.

      This persistence interest lead him to do intense research on the topic to fine workable processes that would help parents, caregivers and

      friends of an individual with ADHD/ADD manage their daily lives.

      In college he studied psychology and also behavioral therapy and

      memory improvement among other courses. From the knowledge that

      he gained from his research and courses he was able to write a number of books on the subject. He has stated that the research that he has done has made him better able to assist his sibling; who was

      diagnosed with ADHD and also help him recognize ADHD/ADD

      traits in others. Jason experience with ADHD/ADD as allowed him to

      assist individuals with ADHD get the necessary treatment that they

      need. His work on memory improvement has also helped these

      individuals organize their daily activities so that they are able to function with effortlessness.

      Jason is aware that individuals who believe that they have

      ADHD/ADD find it a demanding thing to deal with and as such

      explains things as best as possible in this book and his advice can help both individuals diagnosed with ADHD/ADD as well as persons that

      have to deal with individuals diagnosed on a daily basis.

      UNDERSTANDING ADHD (ATTENTION

      DEFICIT HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER)

      ADHD or ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder) is a psychiatric disorder

      seen mainly in children with symptoms sometimes continuing to

      adulthood. ADHD comes with restlessness, impulsive action and

      impaired ability to learn due to lack of concentration. Symptoms of

      ADHD appear before seven years of age, and impact the school-aged

      children most.

      ADHD affects about 3 to 5 percent children globally, and seen more

      frequently in boys as compared to girls. ADHD is a chronic disorder, with most individuals diagnosed in childhood continuing to have

      symptoms to adulthood.

      ADHD in children can be confused with similar conditions like

      Asperger's Syndrome and Autism, where there is lacking social

      interaction, expression and symptoms of hyperactivity.

      ADHD or similar diseases does not affect the physical growth, e.g.

      weight, height or does not cause any physical deformity.
