Suggest Treatment For Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

hi! My son is 47, has never been diagnosed as ADHA, but all of the criteria that was described here tells me he has had it since childhood. He is on disability and cannot afford all that is required to be diagnosed. Any suggestions? He has become intolerable to be around.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is part of many other problems like autism, Asperger and Learning Disabilities. If the present ADHD complaint is with some other disabilities as I mentioned, the treatment is symptomatic. Your psychiatrist will be able to provide more guidelines. ADHD needs patient training methodologies, which may not be possible along with other mental disabilities. Consult your psychiatrist.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
