hiperaktivitásra

Hiperaktivisuus, often referred to as ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder), is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that interferes with functioning or development. It is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders of childhood and can persist into adulthood.

The symptoms of inattention may include difficulty sustaining attention, forgetfulness, being easily distracted, and problems with organization. Hyperactivity symptoms can manifest as excessive fidgeting, restlessness, talking excessively, and difficulty remaining seated. Impulsivity involves acting without thinking, interrupting others, and impatience. These symptoms can vary in intensity and presentation among individuals.

The exact cause of ADHD is not fully understood, but research suggests a combination of genetic, neurological, and environmental factors. Diagnosis is typically made by a qualified healthcare professional based on specific diagnostic criteria, usually involving observations and reports from parents, teachers, and the individual themselves.

While there is no cure for ADHD, various treatment approaches can help manage its symptoms. These often include behavioral therapies, educational interventions, and sometimes medication. The goal of treatment is to improve an individual's ability to function in daily life, including at school, work, and in social relationships. Early diagnosis and intervention are considered important for positive outcomes.
